Storing cannabis products effectively requires more than just placing them in a drawer. It’s true that humidity packs help maintain optimal moisture levels, but they’re just one part of a comprehensive storage solution. Let’s explore how to protect your cannabis products with the right combination of storage tools and techniques.
Understanding cannabis storage: The complete picture
Whether you’re a medical marijuana patient managing your weekly supply or a dispensary storing larger quantities, proper storage combines several essential elements. Humidity packs help control moisture levels through two-way humidity control. To be effective, they need to work in conjunction with the right containers and packaging.
4 critical factors in cannabis storage
Proper cannabis storage is a science that requires careful attention to multiple environmental factors. From medical marijuana patients preserving your weekly supply to a dispensary managing inventory, understanding these key elements can mean the difference between maintaining premium product quality and losing valuable inventory to degradation.
Humidity packs play a role in preservation, but they’re just one part of a comprehensive storage strategy. Here are the four integral factors that work together to protect your cannabis products. Learn how the right packaging solutions can help you maintain optimal conditions:
1. Temperature control
Temperature management is crucial – even the best humidity packs can’t compensate for poor temperature control. Key considerations:
- Keep products below 77°F (25°C) to prevent mold growth
- Avoid temperature fluctuations that can degrade products
- Store away from heat sources and direct sunlight
Green Rush Packaging offers glass jars and containers specifically designed to maintain stable temperatures and protect contents from environmental fluctuations.
2. Light exposure
UV rays can be particularly damaging to cannabis products, potentially reducing potency by up to 40% over time. Think of UV protection like sunscreen for your cannabis – it’s an essential barrier against degradation.
Our trusted and dependable marijuana storage solutions include:
- UV-protected glass jars to filter harmful rays and maintain product visibility
- Protective concentrate containers that preserve extract potency
- Light-resistant packaging options for various product types
Think strategically about your storage location too. Even the best packaging works better when it’s kept in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight.
3. Humidity levels
Maintaining an optimal 59%-63% RH level, humidity packs can only work effectively when paired with the right storage containers. Just like a humidor needs proper sealing to maintain cigars, cannabis requires specialized storage solutions.
Our professional-grade containers include:
- Airtight glass jars with precision-engineered seals
- Child proof containers designed to maintain consistent humidity
- Multiple size options to match your product quantity:
- Quality closures engineered for optimal moisture control
4. Air exposure
Managing airflow is a delicate balance. Too much air accelerates degradation, and too little air can create humidity issues. That’s why choosing the right container type and size is vital for proper preservation.
Our specialized container solutions are available in various sizes to minimize excess air space and maximize product life:
- Pop top bottles for convenient access while maintaining freshness
- Screw-top jars with superior threading for reliable seals
- Child resistant packaging options that prioritize safety and preservation
Each container type is designed to work in harmony with humidity control products while meeting strict compliance requirements.
