Cyclone Pods Releases Raw Lab Data for Nicotine-Free Lineup

Santa Monica-based Cyclone Pods has moved to bypass industry-standard summary reporting by publishing complete, sample-by-sample third-party laboratory results for its entire nicotine-free vape and pouch catalog, including specific work orders, testing methodologies, and detection thresholds for chemicals like vitamin E acetate and diacetyl.

The company’s decision to disclose raw data follows a shift toward radical transparency in the wellness and vaping sector. By providing public access to documentation from ISO 17025-accredited firms, Cyclone Pods aims to distinguish its products from competitors who typically release curated, aggregated findings. The data includes results from Legend Technical Services in St. Paul, Minnesota, and Certified Laboratories in Burbank, California.

Testing for the Gust Pro and Lightning pod systems utilized liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). According to the published documentation, nicotine, diacetyl, and vitamin E acetate were not detected in 15 of 16 samples at a 0.063 µg/g threshold. The company also disclosed a single sample containing trace amounts of nicotine, maintaining that full disclosure of such outliers is vital for consumer trust. Meanwhile, the Focus Pouches underwent analysis via inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), confirming the absence of pesticides and residual solvents, with heavy metals appearing only in trace amounts.

Founder and CEO Conrad Kurth argued that verifiable evidence is the only metric of true transparency. By citing specific work orders—such as #2503988—and detailing the exact analytical methods used, the brand is positioning its products as a verifiable alternative in a market often criticized for opaque safety documentation.
