S-One Labels & Packaging launched a free Cannabis Resourced Guide to help manufacturers and packagers navigate the legal cannabis market. In the emerging industry, cannabis packagers and labelers must adhere to packaging standards. To facilitate the process, S-One's Guide acts as an easy-to-reference resource for participating companies.
The Cannabis Resource Guide is available online and highlights how companies can provide packaging with shelf appeal that also complies with legal regulations. An interactive map details U.S. packaging laws by state, where visitors can clearly see environmentally-friendly packaging guidelines, and where cannabis remains illegal. The goal is to provide customers with information on "child resistance packaging requirements, changing regulations, and film barrier properties to keep products fresh," as Tom Hauenstein, S-OneLP VP, states.
