Why Cannabis Vape Packaging Needs the Right Structure & Insert

Protection
Secure inserts reduce rattle, cracks, leaks, and returns.
Retail Presence
Premium finishes make your brand look reliable at first glance.
SKU Efficiency
One core structure can support multiple strains/flavors with artwork swaps.

Vape Packaging Types We Support - Choose the Right Packaging Type

Different vape devices need different packaging structures. Below is a simple guide by device type—each with the most common packaging options, including CR vs non-CR and value vs premium directions.
510 Cartridge Packaging
Recommended packaging types:
  • Folding carton (best value for single-unit retail)
  • Glass tube / paper tube (eco & premium shelf differentiation)
  • Rigid box version (premium line, stronger structure & finishes)
CR vs non-CR:
  • CR options available (based on your market requirements)
  • Non-CR also available for markets that don’t require CR
Vape Pod Packaging
Recommended packaging types:
  • Similar to 510: folding carton / tube for value and mid-tier lines
  • Premium route: rigid box (best for higher-end pod systems)
Popular rigid box structures (flexible for pod shapes):
  • Sliding box / Telescopic (lid & base)
  • Lift base / Magnetic box
  • Structure can be adjusted to fit irregular pod shapes + inserts
Disposable Vape Pen 
Packaging
Recommended packaging types:
  • Folding carton (cost-effective for volume retail)
  • Gift box / rigid box (premium positioning and unboxing)
How we recommend the best option:
  • Based on your target market, price point, and shelf positioning
  • We can match inserts to protect the long device during shipping
THC & CBD Vape Lines
Recommended packaging types:
  • Sleeve box (clean branding, good value)
  • Folding carton (classic retail structure)
  • Gift box / rigid box (premium sets and accessories)
CR note:
  • Batteries usually don’t require CR (no oil inside), so structure options are wider

Fit Guide: What We Need to Match Your Device

“510” is a thread standard, while pods and disposables vary widely. Accurate packaging starts with real dimensions and your preferred presentation.
Device dimensions
  • Length, width/diameter, widest point
  • Mouthpiece / tip shape (if applicable)
  • Pack orientation (upright / flat / angled)
Order details
  • Type of your packaging, Budget price
  • Quantity and target ship date
  • Child-resistant required? (yes/no)
Branding
  • CMYK or Pantone (PMS)
  • Foil, emboss/deboss, spot UV
  • Barcode, warnings, compliance text
Tip: If you don’t want to ship hardware, send dimensions + photos. If you can ship a spare device sample, we can lock insert fit faster.

Vape Packaging FAQ

  • Q Can you make child-resistant vape packaging?

    A Yes. Share your market and device type and we’ll recommend a CR format that fits your workflow. Start here: Child Resistant Packaging →
  • Q What printing and finishes can you do?

    A CMYK and Pantone (PMS), plus foil stamping, emboss/deboss, spot UV, and soft-touch are all available. Tell us your target look and budget and we’ll recommend the right combination.
  • Q Do you offer sampling before mass production?

    A For hardware-sensitive formats, custom sampling can be expensive. We typically provide same-size existing samples for fit testing, then create a rendering / mockup based on your design before production.
  • Q Can you do multiple strains/flavors in one order?

    A Yes. Many brands use one core structure and run multiple SKUs by changing artwork—this keeps packaging consistent and helps control cost.
  • Q How long does production take?

    A Standard lead time is around 30 days after artwork approval. If you have a deadline, share your target date and we’ll advise the best plan.
