Smaller Cannabis Vape Pod Carton Brings Big Sustainability Benefits

Cannabis brand STIIIZY redesigns its vape pod packaging with 25% less material, resulting in sustainability and efficiency gains and reduced costs.

STIIIZY’s new packaging was created in-house by the company’s large team of in-house designers.

“With great power comes great responsibility,” so the saying goes. That’s why when cannabis provider STIIIZY’s cannabis pod was recognized as the best-selling brand in California and the third best-selling brand in the U.S., the company felt compelled to provide its consumers with more eco-conscious packaging.

STIIIZY, a brand of Los Angeles-based cannabis holding company Shryne Group, was “born out of authentic Los Angeles culture and a desire to provide the highest-quality cannabis products at affordable prices.” That’s according to Jackie Kim, STIIIZY’s Director of Integrated Marketing, who adds that the brand name itself is inspired by the term “steez,” style and ease. “The three ‘I’s represent ‘innovate,’ ‘inspire,’ and ‘influence,’” she adds.

STIIIZY’s pod is part of a proprietary vape system that includes the custom-made pod filled with high-grade cannabis oil and a sleek, proprietary handheld battery into which the pods are inserted for vaping. In late 2019, the company began working on a redesign of the paperboard packaging for the pod that would use less material in order to gain cost and resource efficiencies.
