The 7 Best Ways to Package Shatter
Making some really good shatter is only half the battle, packaging your shatter is also very important. We'd like to believe that good shatter speaks for itself, and it does if you could give everyone a sample. However in today's market it is important to stand out on the shelf amongst other extract and shatter companies.
The 7 Best Ways to Package Shatter in 2018:
1. Glass No Neck Jar with Black Lid
The glass no neck jar with black lid is taking off as one of the most preferred options and the reason is because of the no neck feature meaning the walls are smooth so nothing gets left behind in the crevices especially under the lid where it is most likely to get stuck and difficult to reach. Your customers will really appreciate this option as they won't have to dig and scrape to get the most of their shatter or concentrates.
2. 1 Gram Glass Container
The 1 gram glass container is still the most popular option today, it is a nice durable glass jar with a black lid that can easily be branded with a sticker. This option is cheaper than the no neck option and is not as wide which is great when you are packaging thousands, it takes up less space and transports easily without the worry of any of the jars cracking or breaking. The only thing that should shatter is the actual shatter!
3. Shatter Envelope with Parchment Paper
While some of the glass jar options look really great, many dab heads will say nothing beats a good old coin envelope and a square of parchment. It's easy to see why so many people prefer this method. For one, there is zero to little waste as you can easily scrape up just about everything that is on the parchment. Secondly, the slim coin envelope keeps the shatter safe inside the parchment and can easily be slipped into your pocket with out the bulk of a glass jar. This option is great as you just need a nice sticker to seal it and make your brand look official.
4. Plastic USB Shatter Container

This packaging option works great for shatter as you can easily store a rectangle or square of parchment.

Another benefit of this packaging solution is that it does not take up much space and weighs significantly less than the glass jar options. Also these are very easy to store in your pocket. Just slap on a nice sticker and you're in business!
