Cannabis testing in Vaud: OFCO in Epalinges and Cann-L in Lausanne
Cantonal product control and Lausanne research have different contacts. OFCO combines laboratory and inspection duties; Cann-L is a municipal pilot trial.
Official responsibility: Vaud
Office de la consommation (OFCO) Vaud
Vaud's OFCO brings together food inspection, cantonal weights and measures and the cantonal chemist's laboratories. Its listed food and water services are in Epalinges. Cantonal responsibility must be distinguished from a research project limited to Lausanne.
Open official informationA Lausanne reference is not a canton-wide service
Practical example · fictional
A Vaud business outside Lausanne wants to interpret a report. It uses OFCO for cantonal responsibility and defines its private commission independently of Cann-L’s sales model.
Your next steps
- Identify business and product category in the OFCO context
- Separate municipal research from cantonal control
- Identify the laboratory behind the actual report
Is Epalinges simply another Cann-L shop?
No. OFCO lists food and water services there. An official service’s location and Lausanne’s documented study model are different matters.
Questions to clarify locally
A cannabinoid profile alone establishes neither safety, absence of contaminants nor legal compliance.
