Harrisburg, PA – October 28, 2025 – ACT LAB, one of the nation’s largest cannabis and hemp testing networks, has officially launched full-scale operations at its new state-of-the-art laboratory in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, enhancing its ability to serve the state’s growing medical cannabis market and positioning the company to support proposed adult-use legalization.
The new facility, ACT LAB PA – East, is fully operational and equipped with advanced technology to deliver accurate, timely testing for potency, microbial contamination, pesticides, heavy metals, and other key compliance requirements.
“Expanding our operations with this new facility in Harrisburg allows ACT LAB to provide faster turnaround times and more localized support to licensed operators across Pennsylvania,” said Mallory Paul, Vice President of Commercial Development at ACT LAB, “Our investment in this market reflects our long-term commitment to public health, safety, and the success of the Commonwealth’s cannabis industry.”
The launch of the new lab was marked with an open house on October 28, which welcomed customers, cannabis industry professionals, regulators, and state lawmakers for a behind-the-scenes look at the facility and an opportunity to connect with ACT LAB’s scientific and leadership teams.
“We’re proud to expand our world-class testing capabilities with a second lab location in Pennsylvania,” said Eric Keller, Lab Supervisor, “Our team in Harrisburg is highly trained, mission-driven, and ready to support the next phase of growth in this market.”
As ACT LAB’s PA – West location in Trafford, PA continues its cannabis compliance testing program, and with testing operations now live in Harrisburg, ACT LAB is strategically positioned to serve current medical operators and scale alongside the state’s transition to an adult-use program.
