If you’ve ever owned a plastic  container, you’ve probably witnessed it crack or fade in color over time. It becomes visually unattractive, and it’s not the same container you once bought. Even though these containers are undoubtedly useful, and can be used to store your foods or pack your kids lunches, they tend to absorb flavors , and so aren’t the most viable option for storage. In such circumstances, switching to glass  containers may be the best option. Here’s why. 1.  It retains food flavor Food and drinks retain their taste and freshness when stored in glass containers. Its impermeable surface keeps the contents of the container safe from contamination and unpleasant smells. Glass containers are also easier to clean and have fewer chances of food particles being overlooked while cleaning. 2.  It’s cost-effective Sure, glass is more expensive than plastic. However, it’s a one-time investment, and a worthy one as well. Your plastic container will fa...

Once campaigned as the eco-friendly solution to plastic pollution, oxo-degradable plastic was recently banned by more than 150 organizations around the world. The ban was endorsed by giants like, Unilever, PepsiCo and Nestle; but why? Well, according to a statement published by New Plastics Economy  in 2017, Oxo-degradable plastic packaging is not the answer to plastic pollution. The Secret is Out! Initially, Oxo-degradable plastic was often marketed as a harmless material for food packaging because it was claimed that over time, the plastic degrades into fragments that aren’t damaging to our environment. However, recent research  has concluded that they don’t. In fact, the material breaks down into tiny flakes that don’t degenerate and only add to the plastic pollution. The Conspiracy Unfolded The confusion is created by the misleading propaganda surrounding biodegradable products. This is conspired by Oxo-degradable plastics manufactures that were found to be...

Last year  marked the most progressive year in the US in terms of legalizing medical marijuana; with 33 states  jumping the bandwagon. Therefore, if you’re looking into launching your own medical marijuana dispensary or CannaBrand, it’s probably a good time. However, there are certain things you must be well-read on before you get your hands dirty. This blog will discuss all that you need to know about medical marijuana labeling and packaging. So, without further ado, let us begin: Laws and Regulation: Just because the use of medical marijuana is legalized in your state, doesn’t mean you’re free to do as you will.

So not only do you have to educate yourself on the legislation of the state you’re operating in but also label and pack your weed in ways that adhere to the...

The 4Ps of Marketing or the Marketing Mix  comprises of Product, Place, Promotion and Price. These are the elements that set your product apart from the rest and help you lure in potential buyers. However, there’s a fifth P added to the mix—which is perhaps the most important of them all, for it has great impacts on the other four. The importance of the packaging of your product can’t be overstated; it makes for the first impression of your product and services along with representing your brand and its values. So, it wouldn’t be wrong to say that your product’s packaging is actually a secret weapon when it comes to your marketing strategy. Price: In a capitalist world, Price is perhaps the most important component of the 4Ps. It’s simple math; the more affordable your product is, the more buyers it will attract. However, the pricing of your product is closely linked to its cost. Higher costs result in even higher selling prices. Therefore, you must always aim at cos...

Since their introduction in the mid-2000s, the e-liquid/e-juice industry has notably transformed from cultural taboo to the mainstream. People nowadays are switching from regular cigarettes to e-cigarettes at a faster rate, with over 9 million  Americans now vaping regularly. One of the key components in this growing trend has to be “vape liquid” or “e-juice”. E-juice is the fluid that’s used in vaporizers to create vapor. They come in a variety of nicotine levels and flavors, depending on the person’s choice. This liquid is a mixture of food flavoring, water, nicotine, vegetable glycerin or propylene. The problem with e-juices, like the problem with just about anything is, that e-juice goes bad. The reasons could be the duration of time or external elements. There isn’t much anyone can do with the product’s expiration date, but the effects of the external elements can be prevented. Those preventive measures can be met with the purchase of e-liquid bottles. E-liquid bottles...

In general, the purpose of both plastic and glass containers is the same–storage. Questions arise when the matter in hand is storage of e-liquids for vaping. Keeping this in mind, here are some differences that might help you when choosing between plastic and glass e-liquid bottles.  Price= Content Ratio + Freshness Plastic e-liquid bottles are less expensive and they don’t break easily. The major difference between plastic and glass is the price range, which ultimately ends up being the deciding factor. However, in the case of these e-liquid bottles, there are a lot other factors that need to be considered. Here, the content ratio and the freshness of the liquid are what decide the price of the bottles. The chemicals in plastic packaging tend to affect the flavor of the liquid. This is one of the reasons why , liquid’s that rely primarily on flavor  are packaged in glass bottles and not plastic, for instance, wine, alcohol, beer etc.  Environmental Eff...

Theoretically, cannabis doesn’t go bad in the sense that it has adverse effects  on the user. However, old weed stash and medical marijuana that has been with you for a long time (read: a year) do alter in color, shape, and potency. Let’s take an in-depth look into marijuana and find out whether cannabis can go bad over time. Cannabis Doesn't Have a “Sell-By” Date As long as your marijuana stash hasn’t developed mold and bacteria, it’s okay to use weed that’s a few months old.   However, old marijuana tends to change its chemical compounds with concentrated exposure to different elements like oxygen, heat, and light. As the marijuana bud is made of a structure of cannabinoids, THC, CBD, and CBN are the most common type of chemical that’s useful in inducing the infamous “high.” THC begins as a non-psychoactive compound called THCA. It’s only after it goes through a rigorous process of decarboxylation does the cannabinoid changes to THC and further into CBN and ...

Using marijuana for medicinal purposes is not a new concept. People have been using it for more than 3000 years to cure muscle spasms and other neurological diseases. While the FDA hasn’t approved the use of the marijuana plant  for medicinal purposes, there are some suppliers that are legally selling medical marijuana in the states that have legalized the use of marijuana to treat various health conditions. However, as the marijuana plant contains more than 100 cannabinoids, the FDA has approved 2 major chemical compounds mainly found in marijuana flower and topical treatments. According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse , CBD and THC are the two major cannabinoids that have proved to be medicinally useful. Studies have shown that THC and CBD help reduce pain, inflammation, redness due to muscular problems and have also worked to control epileptic seizures. Let’s take a look at the different ways to consume marijuana for medicinal purposes . Smoking and Vaping...

What are some of the most common options that you have when it comes to pickle packaging? Usually people respond to this question by saying glass and metal containers . However, have you ever wondered why that is the case? Experts agree that the only reason why most pickle companies use metal and glass packaging is because it’s the only packaging solution that can support the rigorous packaging and preparation process for pickles. Pickle Packaging Although pickle companies use similar packaging, their processes are quite different from one another. Overall, there are three processes involved in pickle packaging. These include refrigeration, natural fermentation  and pasteurization. In refrigeration, the pickles are placed in jars which are filled to the top with brine and spices. These are maintained under continuous refrigeration until they are finally delivered to the consumers. This process helps maintain the crunch that consumers expect from pickles. In pasteu...
