ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES DUE TO CANNABIS INDUSTRY’S GROWTH & WHAT WE PROPOSE:

The rise of legal cannabis and its industry development has introduced a growing and alarming environmental cost;

*Shoddy farming practices

*The advent of disposable consumption methods

*Clunky packaging mandated by law – EXCESS OF SINGLE USE PLASTIC WASTE

All of this has created waste that the industry doesn’t have a good way to handle

It was estimated that only in the first year of cannabis legalization and only in Canada, 10 000 TONS of packaging was generated, most of which was not recyclable plastics destined for landfills.

Take a look at what we are doing to create a more eco future-friendly solution by adapting some of our regular packaging to be suitable for the cannabis industry.

As global awareness of climate change increases, more people are learning about all the different choices they can make to do their part in combating these issues of excess waste and it is NCD CORPORATION’s mission to research and developpe ECO FUTURE-FRIENDLY SOLUTIONS for all industries.

The fact that the cannabis industry is so tightly regulated means that providers are more or less at the mercy of the legal market requirements where single-use plastic seems to be practically the only solution. For example; child-resistant packaging, which requires an additional layer of plastic packaging across the supply chain which ends up in extra plastic waste.

Within this catalog you will find great alternatives to plastic like PLA, PAPER, BAMBOO FIBER, WHEAT STRAW, RECYCLED PLASTIC and GLASS containers and bags that ensure the quality and legal security requirements.
