Products & availability

Catalog, vial sizes and product information

What research products does Standard Labs sell?

Browse our research product catalog for current research compounds, available formats and related laboratory accessories. Product pages list the options and prices currently offered.

Can I find BPC-157 and TB-500 research products in Canada?

Our catalog includes a BPC-157 / TB-500 blend product page. Review that page for its listed composition, available size and current stock. A blend listing does not mean both compounds are available separately.

Where can I find Selank and Semax product information?

Review the Selank nasal spray and Semax nasal spray product pages for the listed formats, sizes and availability. These are research-use products; support does not recommend them for personal treatment.

Do you sell laboratory accessories as well as research compounds?

The research product catalog includes related accessories alongside research products. Read each listing to check its specifications and what is included before adding it to your order.

How do I choose a vial size or product option?

Select an available size on the product page. Check that the selected option, displayed price and quantity are correct before adding it to your cart. Available options differ between products.

Why does the price change when I select another size?

Different product sizes or formats can have different prices. The price displayed for your selected option is the one to review, together with the item details and final checkout total.

Why is a product size greyed out or marked Out?

An option marked Out is unavailable to order in that size. Choose an available option or check the product page again later. A listed price does not mean an out-of-stock option is available.

How do I check whether a research product is in stock?

Open its product page and check the stock status for the specific size or format you want. Review your cart and checkout before paying, as product availability can change.

What if I cannot find a product specification or format?

Contact support@standardlabs.io with the product name and the information you need. Do not assume that an unlisted size, format or specification is available; our team can clarify the listing.

Research use & documentation

Intended use and where to find existing product information

Are your products intended for human consumption?

No. Products sold by Standard Research Labs are provided for research use only and are not intended for human consumption, medical treatment, diagnosis or therapeutic use.

Who is the Standard Labs store intended for?

The store is intended for qualified researchers and laboratories purchasing for in vitro or laboratory research. The site asks visitors to confirm they are at least 19 and are not purchasing for human or veterinary use.

Can customer support recommend a dose or treatment?

No. Support helps with orders, shipping and product information. We do not provide medical, diagnostic, treatment or dosing advice, and our research products are not offered for therapeutic use.

Where can I find storage and handling information?

Read the instructions on the specific product listing and label. Requirements can differ by product and format. If a listing leaves a storage or handling detail unclear, contact support before making assumptions.

Do you provide product testing or documentation?

When available, we publish the supplier-provided Certificate of Analysis for the production lot we received, on that product's Certificate tab. Each vial carries a Standard Labs batch code linked to our inventory records, which may differ from the lot number on the certificate. We're also expanding independent third-party testing — new results replace our existing supplier documentation.

Canadian shipping & delivery

Dispatch, shipping charges and delivery estimates

Does Standard Labs ship research orders across Canada?

Yes. Standard Labs ships across Canada from British Columbia. Review the Shipping Policy and enter your delivery address at checkout to review the shipping details for your order.

Do Standard Labs orders ship from Canada or the United States?

Orders are dispatched from British Columbia, Canada. Our Canadian fulfillment information is set out in the Shipping Policy.

How much does shipping cost in Canada?

Shipping is $15 CAD when your product total is below $159 CAD after discounts. Shipping is free when that product total reaches $159 CAD or more. See the Shipping Policy for the full conditions.

How do I qualify for free shipping?

Your product total must be at least $159 CAD after discounts and coupon codes. Free shipping is applied automatically at checkout when the order qualifies; shipping charges do not count toward the minimum.

Do coupon codes affect the free-shipping minimum?

Yes. The $159 CAD free-shipping threshold is calculated after discounts and coupon codes. Applying a discount can move your product total below the threshold, so review the shipping charge again before paying.

Do shipping charges count toward the $159 minimum?

No. The free-shipping minimum is based on the product total after discounts. The shipping charge itself does not count toward the $159 CAD threshold.

How long does order processing take?

Eligible orders placed before 2pm EST, Monday through Friday, are targeted for same-business-day dispatch after payment confirmation and order verification. Orders placed after the cutoff, on weekends or on statutory holidays are targeted for dispatch the next business day. Delivery typically takes 2–4 business days after dispatch, depending on your destination. Dispatch and delivery times may vary during busy periods or due to carrier delays.

How long does delivery take after dispatch?

Delivery typically takes 2–4 business days after dispatch, depending on the destination. This estimate starts after dispatch, rather than when the order is placed, and is not a guaranteed delivery date.

Is same-day dispatch or next-day delivery guaranteed?

No. Same-business-day dispatch is a target for eligible orders after payment confirmation and verification. Delivery estimates are not guarantees. Carrier delays, weather, statutory holidays and busy periods can affect timing.

What happens to orders placed on weekends or holidays?

Orders placed on weekends or statutory holidays are targeted for dispatch on the next business day, subject to payment confirmation and order verification. See the Shipping Policy for the current dispatch conditions.

Is your shipping packaging discreet?

Yes. Our Shipping Policy states that orders use plain, unbranded packaging and that the label and exterior do not reference peptides, chemical names or research compounds.

Why did a shipping charge appear after I changed my cart?

Free-shipping eligibility is recalculated when you change products, quantities or coupons. If the product total falls below $159 CAD after discounts, the $15 CAD shipping charge applies. Review the final checkout summary.

Orders & payments

Checkout, payment confirmation and order changes

How do I place an order with Standard Labs?

Choose your products and available sizes in the research product catalog, review the quantities in your cart, then follow checkout and account instructions. Check your delivery details and complete payment using an available checkout method.

Which payment methods can I use?

Use a payment method currently offered at checkout and follow the instructions for that order. Available payment methods can change; the options actually shown at checkout determine how you can pay.

Can I pay by Interac e-Transfer?

If Interac e-Transfer is offered at checkout, select it and follow the payment instructions supplied with your order. Use the recipient and order reference shown there. Fulfillment follows payment confirmation and order verification.

Can I pay with cryptocurrency?

If cryptocurrency is available at checkout, use the asset, network, amount and payment instructions provided for your order. Do not assume that an amount or wallet instruction from a previous order still applies.

Can I pay by credit card?

Credit card payment is available only when it appears as an active option at checkout. If it is not offered for your order, choose an available method or contact support with your payment question.

Why is my order On hold?

An On hold order has not yet been moved into processing. It may be awaiting payment confirmation or staff review. Check your order instructions and contact support if you have completed payment but need clarification.

What does Processing mean, and does Completed mean delivered?

Processing means your order is in the fulfillment workflow. The completed-order dispatch email includes the saved tracking information; Completed should not be treated as proof of carrier delivery. Use the tracking link to check delivery progress.

Can I change or cancel my order?

If you need to request an order change or cancellation, contact our support team as soon as possible. Once an order has entered processing or has already shipped, changes or cancellations may no longer be possible. Review the Refund Policy for cancellation terms.

Can I correct a shipping address after placing an order?

Contact support immediately with your order number and the correct address. Our Shipping Policy requires address changes to be submitted and confirmed before 2:00 PM EST on dispatch day. Changes cannot be made after the manifest and tracking have been generated.

Tracking & delivery problems

Tracking emails, scan delays and missing parcels

Will I receive a tracking number for my order?

Your dispatch confirmation email includes tracking details when we mark the order as dispatched. Make sure the checkout email address is correct. Creating or printing a label alone does not mean the carrier has received the parcel.

Where can I find my tracking link?

Open your dispatch confirmation email and use its tracking link. If you cannot find the message, check your spam or junk folder and contact support@standardlabs.io with your order number.

Why have I not received a dispatch email yet?

Your order may still be awaiting payment confirmation, verification or dispatch. Check your order instructions, account status and spam folder. If you need an update, contact support with your order number and checkout email address.

Why does my tracking number show no scans yet?

A label can be created before the parcel reaches the carrier. Initial scans can take time to appear online. Check the Shipping Policy for scan guidance and contact support if tracking remains unchanged.

Does a printed shipping label mean my order has shipped?

Not necessarily. Label creation and carrier handoff are separate steps. Tracking activity from the carrier is the useful indicator of transit progress; a label may exist before the first acceptance scan.

What should I do if tracking has not moved for seven business days?

Contact support@standardlabs.io if the parcel shows no tracking activity for seven consecutive business days. Our team will review the shipment with the courier. Confirmed lost packages are eligible for a one-time replacement under the Shipping Policy.

What if a parcel is returned to sender?

Contact support with your order number and tracking details. Under the Shipping Policy, returns caused by incomplete addresses, failed delivery attempts or non-collection are subject to a $15 CAD re-processing and reshipment charge.

Returns & order issues

Damage, fulfillment mistakes and claim information

What is your refund policy?

Refund eligibility depends on the circumstances of the order and the condition of the products. Please review our Refund Policy for complete information before submitting a request.

Can I physically return or exchange a research product?

Physical returns and exchanges are not accepted once an order has left the facility, as described in the Refund Policy. Contact support about a specific damage or fulfillment issue rather than mailing products back.

What happens if my order arrives damaged?

Contact support@standardlabs.io within 48 hours of delivery confirmation with your order number. Keep the parcel, packing slip and affected item, and retain clear photos and video documenting the damage. Review both the Shipping Policy and Refund Policy for their documentation and claim requirements.

What if I receive the wrong product or an item is missing?

Contact support within seven days of delivery with your order number and clear documentation of what you received. Keep the packing slip and packaging, and retain any unboxing video. The Refund Policy explains how fulfillment errors and missing items are handled.

Rewards, discounts & bundles

Welcome offer, points, referrals and bundle savings

Is there a first-order discount for new customers?

New members can receive $25 off a qualifying first order of $75 or more when creating a free account. Review the offer conditions and your checkout summary before paying.

How does Build Your Own Box work?

The Build Your Own Box page lets you select four eligible research compounds for the advertised 20% bundle discount. Eligible selections and the final savings are shown in the builder and cart.

How do I join Standard Rewards?

Create a Standard Labs account to access Standard Rewards. Eligible purchases made through your account earn points. Visit the Standard Rewards page for the current program details.

How many Standard Rewards points do I earn?

You earn one point per $1 spent on eligible purchases. The Standard Rewards page explains that points are calculated on eligible order value before taxes and shipping.

What are Standard Rewards points worth?

Each point is worth $0.02 in store credit. For example, 500 points equal $10 in credit toward an eligible order. Your account shows the available points and credit you can use.

When do order reward points become available?

Points accumulate after completed orders. Sign in to your account and open My Rewards to check available points, available credit and any pending points. Contact support if a completed order needs review.

How do I redeem my rewards at checkout?

Apply your available points toward an eligible purchase at checkout. The corresponding store-credit value is deducted from the order total. Check the final summary to confirm the amount applied.

Do Standard Rewards points expire?

The Standard Rewards page states that accumulated points do not expire while your account remains active. You can build your balance across eligible orders and redeem available points when you are ready.

Can rewards points be combined with promotions or bundle savings?

Where eligible, points can be used as store credit alongside qualifying promotions and bundle savings. Promotion-specific restrictions still apply. Review the amount actually applied at checkout rather than assuming every offer can be combined.

How does Refer & Earn work?

Share your personal referral link from My Rewards. After your friend’s qualifying first order is fulfilled, you receive 500 points, worth $10 in store credit. Visit Refer & Earn for the current conditions.
