The Art of Chocolate Packaging
Before we can start making custom CBD boxes for your products, there are certain important points which we need to keep in mind.
Standardized Symbol Of Cannabis (THC) Standardized Symbol Of Cannabis. All cannabis products are packaged in tamper-proof and child-resistant packaging. The standardized cannabis symbol must be on the label of all products containing 10 micrograms (μg) or more of THC. The symbol warns people that the product contains THC.
Trade Name And Brand Elements
The packaging of cannabis products must include the name of the company. Another element of the mark, such as a slogan or logo, may also appear on the packaging.
THC And CBD Content
THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) and CBD (cannabidiol) are the cannabinoids most commonly found in cannabis. The content of THC and CBD must be indicated on each cannabis product. Cannabis must be heated to at least 150 degrees Celsius to activate cannabinoids. Cannabis is heated either by the producer during processing or by you before consuming the product.
On the product label, the cannabinoid content is listed in two ways.
- The THC and CBD content is the amount of THC and active CBD in the product before heating it.
- The total content of THC and CBD is the amount of THC and CBD that will be after heating the product.
Sometimes the amount of THC and the total amount of THC or the amount of CBD and the total amount of CBD are the same, for example when the dried cannabis is heated to activate the cannabinoids in order to produce products such as oils, capsules and edible products. The measurement of THC and CBD may be indicated differently depending on the nature of the product.
Find out how to determine the THC content according to the label. When choosing a cannabis product, look at total THC and total CBD. Choose products with low total THC content and equal or greater total CBD concentration. If you smoke or Vape , start with one or two puffs of 10% (100 mg / g) THC or less. Edible products may contain more than 10 mg of THC per package. Start with products that contain 2.5 mg THC or less.

Specifically, the Regulations require neutral packaging and labeling for all cannabis products and impose restrictions on the logo, colors and marks. Cannabis products must be placed in a child-resistant container, labeled with the standardized cannabis symbol, mandatory health warnings related to cannabis, and include certain product information (eg, name of the product). the cannabis product brand, the cannabis category, the delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol [THC] and cannabidiol [CBD] content, information on the licensee).
