Are Kōaka products made from cannabis?

Kōaka uses organic, New Zealand Hemp Seed Oil as the base of all our products. To do this, we harvest the hemp plants, shake down for the seeds and then cold press the seeds to extract high quality, nutrient dense, unrefined hemp seed oil.

Are Kōaka products suitable for vegans?

We are happy to say that all of our products are cruelty free and not tested on animals. Look for the VEGAN symbol to identify which products are suitable for vegans. The only products that are not vegan is the Skin Rescue Balm and Lip Soother, as these contain locally and responsibly sourced bee’s wax.

If I use these products could I fail a drug test?

No. Typical marijuana drug tests measure the amount of THC present within a person's body. Kōaka’s products are made using Hemp Seed Oil. We can batch test our Hemp Seed Oil and can provide an assurance that these products would not cause failure of a drug test.
