Uncle Roy’s fresh packaged cannabis offers several advantages over other forms of presentation. Let’s explore them: Reduced Contamination Risk: When cannabis is pre-packaged, it minimizes the risk of contamination. Handling, smelling, and examining cannabis at various stages of the supply chain can introduce contaminants like mold and mildew. In a deli-style dispensary, where flower is weighed out from open containers for each purchase, there’s more exposure to germs. Budtenders reach into containers, sometimes using utensils that have touched other surfaces. Pre-packaging ensures a clean, uncontaminated product for clients. Freshness Preservation: Deli-style containers are either left open or frequently opened throughout the day for customers to sniff or package the bud. This exposure to air causes the flower to dry out faster, impacting its quality. Pre-packaging seals in humidity and preserves the desirable compounds (terpenes and cannabinoids) that give cannabis its aroma and flavor. Properly packaged pre-packaged cannabis maintains freshness and extends shelf life, reducing spoilage and positively impacting the bottom line. Brands often choose child-proof glass containers packaged in boxes to block out light. Roy even includes humidity packs to keep the product fresh.
