What We Couldn't Verify
- On-site facility inspection was not conducted
- A2LA accreditation claimed but not found in A2LA public directory across three checks (April 4, April 6, April 7 — last check searched all 5 US accreditation bodies plus ILAC international signatories with 0 hits anywhere). 21 days after press release; possibly indexing lag, possibly registered under different legal entity name, possibly premature announcement. Re-check planned for April 16, 2026 (30 days post the March 17, 2026 press release date).
- California locations only (Irvine + San Diego)
- Not an Amazon TIC approved provider (testing results need TIC validation for Amazon)
- Contact information (email, phone) not publicly available

Our Evaluation Method
Every manufacturer assessment follows six principles:
- Evidence: Claims backed by documentation, not marketing copy
- Freshness: Information reviewed and dated within the last 12 months
- Provenance: Sources cited for every key claim
- Challenge: Inconsistencies flagged, not hidden
- Disclosure: Material connections stated directly on affected listings
- Abstention: When we can't assess, we say so explicitly
