Forge Performance
Forge names two independent labs (ILS and Freedom Diagnostics), does identity by mass spec and purity by HPLC with endotoxin screening, and ships a batch COA keyed to the vial's cap color, which is a clever way to tie the vial to its paper. Pricing is public. Main thing is they look new (reviews are all 2026), so there isn't much of a track record yet.
Score Breakdown
Names two independent labs (ILS, Freedom Diagnostics); identity by MS, purity by HPLC, endotoxin screened.
Batch-specific COA accompanies every order; documented per-product purity.
Distinct cap color per batch keyed to the matching COA is a concrete traceability mechanism.
Texas LLC; no disclosed changes; tenure appears short.
Not on reptides; on-site/affiliate reviews dated 2026; limited independent data.
Damage protection with photo proof; free shipping over $200.
Specific, checkable claims with named labs and methods.
Named labs are verifiable; corroborated by pepguide listing.
Positive Signals
- +Two named third-party labs (ILS, Freedom Diagnostics)
- +MS + HPLC + endotoxin testing
- +Cap-color-to-COA batch traceability
- +Public pricing (not gated)
Trust Concerns
Few documentation gripes. It's mostly about age: the brand looks new, the independent feedback is thin, and they don't mention sterility. If you want certainty, ask ILS or Freedom Diagnostics to confirm a COA directly.
- !Apparently newer operation with limited independent track record
Researcher Notes
- •Two named independent labs is a strong signal
- •MS + HPLC + endotoxin testing
- •Cap-color-to-COA batch traceability
- •Newer operation; limited independent reviews
- •Confirm a COA directly with the named lab
