Edibles brand Wyld has launched a range of cannabis-infused gummies made with real fruits like strawberries, lemons, peaches, huckleberries, and more. The gummies come packaged in a paperboard pouch decorated with illustrations of whatever fruit the pouch is flavored with. The pouch is fully compostable, child-resistant, and market-compliant so that consumers can enjoy these treats without harming the environment once they are finished. The brand’s new packaging perfectly aligns with its mission to give back to communities, protect the environment, and contribute to societal change.
"Packaging in other industries often starts with brand standards, but because of Wyld’s commitment to sustainability and compliance, we worked in the other direction. We began our package design process with the fully compostable and child-resistant/market-compliant requirements," said the Wyld team in a statement.
