Significance and Use

5.1 This guide provides guidance for the development and implementation of Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) for the manufacture of cannabis/hemp-containing edibles, dietary supplements, topicals, and inhaled products for human use. These GMPs create and maintain conditions that support product safety and quality.

5.2 This guide applies to facilities that operate in jurisdictions where actionable regulatory GMP requirements do not exist.

5.2.1 In jurisdictions where actionable regulatory GMP requirements do exist, this guide may be used to provide additional information and guidance.

5.3 This guide is consistent with internationally recognized practices. However, local laws and regulations take precedence.

5.4 Note that the specific terminology used to describe the various components of GMPs in some jurisdictions may differ from those used in this guide.

Scope

1.1 This guide describes Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) for use by facilities that produce cannabis/hemp-containing edibles, dietary supplements, topicals, and inhaled products for human use. It applies to facilities that operate in jurisdictions without actionable regulatory GMP requirements, to all aspects of manufacturing, including the use of non-cannabis/hemp ingredients, additives, or components, and regardless of which plant part or derivative is used.

1.2 Other guides will address GMPs for facilities that operate in jurisdictions with specific requirements for manufacturing these products or other types of cannabis/hemp-containing products such as for veterinary use.

1.3 This guide does not apply to cultivation, harvesting, or immediate post-harvest activities such as trimming, cleaning undesired plant parts, drying, and curing. Guidance on Good Cultivation Practices will be provided in a separate standard.

1.4 This guide does not apply to products or ingredients that have been approved by a regulatory authority for use as food ingredients, dietary ingredients, or drug substances (for example, hemp seeds as a food ingredient), and are produced within the scope of that approval.

1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

1.6 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
