Lowell Smokes is a cannabis company who wants you to puff, puff, pass on thinking that cannabis doesnât need to commit to sustainability.
In an industry known for a hefty amount plastic tubes to hold joints, and plastic bags to discretely carry your flower out of a dispensary, it’s refreshing to see a brand put their best foot forward when it comes to investing in natural materials.
Although cannabis brands want to have a positive effect on the environment, regulations on the industry have made it tough to put sustainable packaging practices into action. Since the industry is relatively new, there arenât clear rules regarding best practices when it comes to design. Furthermore, there is little to no state-funded research on how electricity and farming practices of flower can be improved to impact the environment.
