REFERRAL OFFER
10% off with disclosed code
Crush Research lists itself as veteran-owned and operated, founded by a retired military veteran, and this code was set up so the money stays in that loop: PeptideBenchmark keeps none of the commission from peptidebenchmar — all of it is donated to a veterans' charity. The discount to you is identical either way, because the vendor's own public CrushX10 is also 10% off; the only difference is that one code generates no commission and this one generates a donated one. Cart-verified to stack sequentially after the 3-/5-vial multi-pack builder.
PeptideBenchmark has a disclosed affiliate relationship with Crush Research. This does not change benchmark scores or trust ratings — it only affects outbound links and pricing-board discount modeling where applicable.
Readers who want a publicly browsable multi-laboratory testing index with independently checkable Freedom / ILS reports and deep safety panels on applicable batches.
Some index rows still link vendor-hosted PDFs without a provider lookup, so confirm the named lab (Freedom / ILS) on the specific batch.
Included as a recognizable research-vendor name with enough community familiarity to merit focused tracking.
Now one of the stronger curated testing-transparency cases because its public testing page exposes structured batch metadata, public COA PDFs, and named outside lab attribution rather than just generic quality language.
Crush Research exposes a public `/testing` index of structured batch rows spanning Freedom Diagnostics, ILS Laboratories, BTLabs, and a Vanguard Laboratory report. Freedom and ILS records include provider-checkable routes; the archive also reports deep panels across applicable batches (HPLC purity, identity, endotoxin, heavy metals, and sterility). Provider verification and panel coverage remain report-specific rather than being inferred across the whole catalog.
This vendor is one of 113 names currently included in our manual curated research-vendor layer.
This is the strongest public transparency pattern on the site. The key signal is that readers can leave the vendor domain and inspect reports or verification pages on an outside provider domain without needing to log in.
- Treat the outside provider route as the strongest part of the evidence, not the vendor marketing copy around it.
- Look for repeated product-level behavior across the catalog, not just one showcase example.
- Do not overread it as proof that every current lot is covered or current unless the linked report trail itself supports that.
This vendor makes the most sense when you compare it to other vendors using a similar transparency model, rather than to every vendor on the board at once.
PB Curated Assessment is a PeptideBenchmark-authored rubric built from the trust and transparency review layer. It is separate from the source-derived benchmark score.
Crush Research is currently one of the strongest curated cases on the site because readers can inspect a repeatable public evidence trail without logging in.
Readers can leave the vendor marketing layer and inspect verification publicly.
This is the strongest public pattern because the verification step routes into an outside provider layer.
Current review touched 160 products and 257 document/link destinations.
5 named lab signal(s) and 1 certification category signal(s) are currently visible in the reviewed evidence.
Score 9.0 from 10-point benchmark blend.
PB Curated Assessment: Strong. This is our own trust/transparency rubric and is kept separate from the PB score.
Under the formula retired on Aug 28, 2026 this vendor scores 9.51 — the live evidence-first score is 8.92 (-0.59). What changed and why: scoring methodology.
Observed from public domain records and the vendor's own site on Aug 27, 2026. Identity facts are shown for context and do not affect scores.
Assayed content is not fill accuracy. Laboratories report net peptide content, and peptides ship as salts, so an honestly filled vial commonly assays below its gross label — a figure under 100% is not evidence of a short vial. These numbers are also not comparable between vendors: they exist only where a laboratory reports net content, so they partly reflect which laboratory a vendor uses.

PB score is the number you should read first on this page. It starts with trust evidence, pricing coverage, and third-party review signals from Finnrick, Peptide Critic, Trustpilot, and Pep Review Pro when available. Reviewed transparency evidence contributes a bounded amount — shown as a trust lift for source-benchmarked vendors, and folded into the base score for PB-evidence vendors.
This vendor’s score is evidence-first: verifiable testing evidence forms the backbone, and outside review sources are a bounded adjustment that can warn far more than it can boost. The terms below sum to the displayed score (small rounding aside). Full formula on the scoring methodology page.
WHAT THIS PAGE IS
- Board-ranked vendor profile with source-linked benchmark inputs
- Includes Finnrick score coverage
- Includes Peptide Critic score coverage
- Includes Trustpilot review coverage
- No Pep Review Pro profile currently linked
CURRENT LIMITS
- Not an original lab test or editorial review
- Source scales and methodologies differ across sites
- Depends on source site freshness and formatting
These are source-backed transparency links between this vendor and testing providers. They are not the same thing as independent confirmation that every current lot matches every posted report.
- Vendor claims testing with: the vendor publicly names the provider.
- Public reports hosted at: the vendor publicly routes users to report pages from that provider.
- Provider-authored reports hosted on vendor domain: the vendor publicly hosts report files that identify an outside lab as the issuing provider.
- COA verification hosted at: the vendor publicly routes users to provider-run verification pages.
These are representative public examples from the vendor testing review queue. They show how product pages in the catalog expose public report or verification paths, but they should still be read as examples rather than proof for every current lot.
In other words: the relationship registry above captures the vendor-to-provider link itself, while the examples below show what that link looks like across real product pages.
METHODOLOGY
How to read this benchmark
This profile summarizes public benchmark data synced from Finnrick and, when available, Peptide Critic. Finnrick contributes a 10-point average from its vendor table, while Peptide Critic contributes a 5-star rating that we normalize to a 10-point scale before ranking consensus entries.
A high score can be directionally useful, but it is not a substitute for current COAs, identity testing, chain-of-custody details, or your own due diligence. We are intentionally separating source aggregation from first-party editorial claims.
Scores combine PB trust evidence with external signals from Finnrick, Peptide Critic, Trustpilot, and Pep Review Pro when available.
