Ensuring Safety and Efficacy: Our Partnership with Altitude Consulting

Posted by The Mushroom Champ on Jun 9th 2024

At The Mushroom Champ we are outspoken advocates for natural medicines and also understand that compound testing is essential to ensure both safety and efficacy when it comes to these natural medicines.

This is why we have partnered with Altitude Consulting, a leading laboratory known for its precise and reliable testing services. This collaboration allows us to bring you the highest quality fungal sample testing with Altitude’s state-of-the-art equipment and unparalleled expertise.

Who is Altitude Consulting?

Founded in 2019 in the wake of the Farm Bill, Altitude Consulting has rapidly become a trusted name in the world of analytical testing. With a mission to provide accurate and reliable testing that benefits producers and consumers alike, Altitude Consulting is truly committed to advancing the field of natural medicine.

During the 70’s and 80’s, Gary Brook, Mike Faught, and Rocky Hebel honed their skills in analytical labs, primarily focusing on environmental waste cleanup. Their paths eventually crossed in the equipment servicing industry in the 90’s and early 2000’s, where they developed an intricate understanding of laboratory instruments.

In 2006, Gary and Mike founded Altitude Lab Solutions, a service company that Rocky joined in 2011. Together, they have outfitted and opened over 150 labs worldwide. The early 2010’s saw a rise in analytical instrument sales in Denver due to the emerging cannabis industry.

Recognizing their expertise, they began developing some of the first analytical methods for cannabis testing in the US, leading to the creation of Altitude Consulting.

Since then they have added psychedelic and functional mushroom testing to the docket starting in 2023.

Ultimate Precision with Altitude Consulting

Altitude Consulting’s commitment to precision is evident in their ISO/IEC 17025 certification, which ensures their results are consistent and accurate. Their internal protocols often exceed standard requirements, reflecting their dedication to excellence. The team’s continuous experimentation with method improvement and validation keeps them at the forefront of analytical testing.
