Cannabis Tincture Bottles & Concentrate Containers

What Types Of Cannabis Concentrate Containers Are Available?

Concentrates can vary considerably in texture and viscosity, so packaging requirements may differ from those of cannabis flower or edible products. SKS offers small glass vials, jars, and plastic containers that could be used for oils, extracts, waxes, and other concentrated products. Dram-size vials and compact jars can provide practical options for smaller fills, while larger formats may be appropriate for products sold in higher quantities.

How Do You Choose A Container For Cannabis Concentrates?

Consider the consistency of the concentrate first. Oils and fluid extracts may require a different container and dispensing method than thicker products such as waxes or other semi-solid concentrates. The opening should provide enough access for filling and intended product use without making the package unnecessarily large. Capacity, container material, closure style, labeling area, and the way the product will be stored should also factor into your selection.

What Features Are Important For Concentrate Packaging?

Cannabis concentrate containers should be selected with the physical properties and intended use of the product in mind. Consider features such as:

• Compact formats - Small jars and vials can be well suited to concentrated products that are sold in relatively low fill quantities.
• Accessible openings - The opening should accommodate the filling process and provide practical access to thicker concentrates when needed.
• Material compatibility - Glass and plastic offer different characteristics, so the selected material should be evaluated with the specific formulation.
• Secure closures - A properly fitted closure can help keep concentrated products contained during storage, transportation, and handling.
• Labeling space - Even small containers need sufficient surface area for branding and any product information required by the applicable market.

What Cannabis Concentrates Can Be Packaged In These Containers?

Different concentrate containers could be used for a variety of cannabis extracts and concentrated formulations. Examples include cannabis oils, waxes, extracts, resins, rosin, and other products with fluid, viscous, or semi-solid consistencies. Since concentrates can vary significantly in texture and ingredients, the selected container should be evaluated with the actual product to determine whether the package provides the desired filling, storage, and dispensing experience.

Why Are Small Containers Commonly Used For Cannabis Concentrates?

Concentrated cannabis products are often packaged in smaller quantities than many other cannabis products, making compact containers a practical choice. Smaller jars and vials can help create an appropriately sized retail package without using more container material or shelf space than necessary. They can also provide a convenient format for products intended to be accessed in small amounts.

Are Glass or Plastic Containers A Better Option For Cannabis Concentrates?

Glass can be a useful packaging material for many concentrated formulations and provides a substantial appearance in small-format packages. Glass jars and vials are available in several shapes and capacities, allowing brands to choose packaging based on product quantity and presentation. Plastic provides another option for packaging certain cannabis concentrates and can offer a lightweight alternative to glass. Plastic jars and containers are available in compact sizes suitable for products that require small fills. Because concentrate formulations can differ substantially in ingredients and consistency, testing the actual product in the selected plastic or glass container is recommended before committing to a larger production quantity.

Are Child-Resistant Cannabis Concentrate Containers Available?

Yes, SKS Bottle offers several small plastic and glass jars and containers that come with child resistant closures. Depending on the product and package configuration, child-resistant jars, vials, and other containers could provide an additional barrier to access by young children. Requirements vary by jurisdiction, so businesses should confirm the applicable standards and verify that the complete container and closure combination meets the requirements for the market where the product will be sold.

What Should You Consider When Packaging Sticky Or Viscous Concentrates?

Thick and sticky concentrates can require different packaging considerations than free-flowing oils. A container opening that provides adequate access can make filling and product removal more practical, while the interior shape and closure should be evaluated for how much product may remain inside after use. Test the actual concentrate with the complete package to evaluate filling, dispensing, cleanup, closure performance, and overall usability before selecting production packaging.

Do Cannabis Concentrate Containers Need To Meet Local Requirements?

Packaging regulations for cannabis concentrates can differ depending on the state, locality, product type, and applicable regulatory authority. Requirements may address child-resistant features, tamper evidence, labeling, package quantities, and other aspects of the finished package. Businesses are responsible for determining the requirements applicable to their products and markets and should verify current regulations before selecting packaging for production.

How Can Small-Format Concentrate Packaging Support Your Brand?

When the product itself is sold in a compact quantity, the container becomes an important part of the overall package experience. A well-proportioned jar or vial can give a small product a purposeful, finished appearance while providing enough room for branding and required information. Glass, plastic, different shapes, and closure styles offer opportunities to create packaging that distinguishes one concentrate product from another.

Can You Buy Cannabis Concentrate Containers In Bulk?

Yes. SKS Bottle & Packaging offers wholesale cannabis concentrate containers in bulk case quantities, with volume-based pallet discounts available on many products. Purchasing packaging in larger quantities could help maintain consistency across concentrate production runs and product launches. Product subscriptions are also available for frequently ordered packaging.

How Quickly Can Cannabis Concentrate Containers Ship?

Most in-stock cannabis concentrate containers ship within one business day, helping cannabis brands, processors, and dispensaries keep packaging on hand for upcoming production and replenishment needs.

Can You Order Samples Of Cannabis Concentrate Containers?

Yes. Free samples are available on most product detail pages, making it possible to evaluate container capacity, opening size, closure fit, labeling space, and overall usability before purchasing larger quantities. Testing the actual concentrate in the selected container is recommended to confirm compatibility and performance with your specific formulation.
