People approach the cannabis counter and make rapid decisions and there’s an abundance of cannabis products to select from. Customers will be paying attention to the packaging when they are looking at your cannabis product and it should be appealing, comfortable and maintain the quality of the product.
Whether you’re a small or large grower, dispensary or cannabis brand, at Go Boxery we create bespoke cannabis packaging. It can be any style, size and a piece of artwork. We handle the rest.
The strains are comparable, there are numerous products that share the strains, and comparable costs. Many times the difference between one and the other is their packaging. If your customer has never consumed your product, then he/she will evaluate it based on what he/she observes and what he/she touches it with.
Labelling, warnings and child resistant packaging is controlled by state and country- check your jurisdiction. It is vital to consider cannabis child resistant packaging as it may impact your structure & materials.
There are various types of product packaging depending on the product being packaged. A pre roll is a roll that is to be kept from crushing while an edible is a roll that needs to be in a suitable roll box for use as food. This is a list of the similarities and differences of the common formats.
| Product | Packaging Style |
| Pre rolls | Little boxes or sleeves to avoid bruising of joints. |
| Flower | Foil lined Mylar bags or pouches. |
| Edibles | Paperboard boxes (food contact surfaces – safe option if applicable) |
| Concentrates | Boxes for compact or small paperboard or rigid boxes for small valuable items. |
| Vape items | Compact boxes to be placed compactly on the device |
| CBD products | Neater and healthier looking boxes and sleeves. |
One of the most popular packaging types is cannabis pre roll packaging and Custom Pre Roll packaging can be created to fit your joints just right.
Your boxes will all be aligned with coloring and artwork that can be used across all of your boxes resulting in a full line of cannabis product boxes by which you can keep things consistent; we can help you keep things consistent with our Custom Product Boxes.
The boxes are all made specially to suit your needs and the contents are tightly packed and don’t take up any space in the box. Please include the product dimensions of any product you are interested in or request assistance if you are unsure of the dimensions.
The right way is primarily dependent on your amount of art and artwork.
Full colour CMYK offers you exciting detailed graphics in full colour. The Pantone spot colours ensure that your brand colours are consistent with each run, while custom colour matching can be used to achieve a perfect match with existing colours, if desired. Colour plays a significant role, as well in the appearance of shelves.
Material follows product. Boxes and sleeves are made from paperboard and bags and pouches are made from flexible barrier material.
| Material | Best For |
| SBS Paperboard | Clean, good quality boxes – clear print quality. |
| Kraft | Natural, eco-friendly look |
| Rigid | Additional quality durability of the packaging. |
| Recycled | Sustainability-focused brands |
| Corrugated (E-flute, B-flute) | Packaging for shipment and display that is both strong yet light. |
| Mylar (foil-lined, multi-layer) | Screen Bags and pouches. |
A box’s finish is most apparent when it is being picked up. Combine and match to create a brand match.
