Cannabis Edibles Packaging

What Types Of Packaging Are Available for Cannabis Edibles ?

Cannabis edibles can require very different packaging depending on the product's size, consistency, serving format, and intended use. SKS offers jars, bottles, tins, and other containers that could accommodate individual edible products, multiple servings, infused beverages, and other cannabis-infused formulations. Choose from glass and plastic options in a range of capacities and styles to find packaging suited to your product.

How Do You Choose The Right Packaging For Cannabis Edibles?

When selecting packaging for cannabis edibles, consider the product's ingredients, consistency, moisture or oil content, fill quantity, and storage requirements. Because these containers are intended for food and beverage products, the packaging material should be appropriate for the application and compatible with the specific formulation. Gummies, chocolates, candies, and baked goods could be suited to jars or tins, while infused oils and beverages may require bottles designed for liquid products. Container size, opening dimensions, closure type, labeling area, and applicable food-contact requirements should also be evaluated before selecting packaging.

What Features Are Important For Cannabis Edibles Packaging?

Cannabis edibles packaging should balance practical functionality with product presentation and applicable packaging requirements. Important features to consider include:

• Food-safe materials - Choose containers made from materials appropriate for food and beverage applications and compatible with your specific cannabis-infused product.
• Secure closures - Properly fitted lids and caps can help keep products enclosed during storage, handling, transportation, and use.
• Child-resistant options - Child-resistant packaging could help meet applicable requirements for cannabis edibles where this feature is required.
• Material selection - Glass and plastic provide different options for product presentation, package weight, handling, and application needs.
• Retail presentation - Container shape, finish, visibility, and available labeling space can contribute to the overall customer experience.

What Cannabis Edibles Can Be Packaged In These Containers?

These containers could be used for a variety of cannabis-infused food and beverage products. Gummies, candies, chocolates, mints, baked goods, snacks, infused oils, beverages, and other THC or CBD edibles are examples of products that could be packaged in compatible containers. The best packaging will depend on the product's consistency, ingredients, portion size, shelf life, dispensing requirements, and intended storage conditions.

Are Glass Jars Suitable For Cannabis Edibles?

Glass jars can provide a substantial package with a premium appearance for a variety of cannabis edibles. Clear glass can showcase colorful gummies, candies, and other products, while colored or opaque glass provides a different presentation. Glass jars could be particularly well suited to products where a reusable or substantial container is part of the brand experience. Test the selected container with your specific product to confirm compatibility before purchasing larger quantities.

Are Child Resistant Containers for Cannabis Edibles Available?

Some of our bottles, vials and jars are available with child resistant closures. Child-resistant containers and closures are designed to make access more difficult for young children while remaining usable by the intended consumer when properly operated. Requirements vary by jurisdiction and product type, so businesses should verify applicable regulations and confirm that the complete container and closure configuration meets the requirements for the market where the product will be sold.

What Should You Consider When Packaging Cannabis Beverages?

Cannabis beverages have different packaging considerations than solid edibles. Bottle capacity, opening size, closure type, product compatibility, filling requirements, and consumer dispensing all play a role in selecting the right container. Consider how the beverage will be filled, sealed, transported, stored, and consumed when evaluating bottles and closures for THC or CBD-infused drinks.

Does Cannabis Edibles Packaging Need To Meet Local Requirements?

Yes, packaging requirements for cannabis edibles can vary by state, municipality, product type, and applicable regulatory authority. Requirements could address child-resistant packaging, tamper-evident features, labeling, serving or package quantities, product visibility, and other packaging characteristics. Businesses are responsible for determining which requirements apply to their products and markets. Before placing a production order, verify current regulations in each jurisdiction where your cannabis edibles will be manufactured, distributed, or sold.

How Can Edibles Packaging Help Your Products Stand Out?

Packaging is an important part of the presentation for cannabis food and beverage products. A thoughtfully selected jar, tin, or bottle can complement the appearance of the edible while giving your brand room to communicate product information and establish a recognizable retail presence. Clear containers could showcase colorful products, while opaque options can create a more distinctive or understated presentation. Consider the shape, material, finish, and label area when developing packaging for your edible product line.
