inorganicventures.com Do you ever wonder how you can be sure that the food you eat is safe? Headquartered in a 40,000-square-foot production facility in Christiansburg, Virginia, Inorganic Ventures is a global leader and innovator in the development, manufacture and packaging of Certified Reference Standards. If you have no idea what that means, you’re not alone. People ask us every day, and when we answer, their eyes usually start to glaze over. So instead of explaining what inorganic testing standards are, let us tell you what our products do for your family. Do you ever wonder how you can be sure that the food you eat is safe, the water that comes out of your faucet is free of impurities, or that the medical products you use contain the ingredients listed on the label? It’s because those products are tested to ensure content and purity. Our Certified Reference Standards, when used properly in a testing lab, provide a scientific basis to document and defend the content listed on a product label. PICTURED ON COVER are just a few of the Inorganic Ventures’ employees that hold a degree from Virginia Tech.
