Importance of packaging and labeling of cannabis products

One of the fascinating aspects of the cannabis industry is that it is able to open doors for many fields of work, including advertising..

Roughly speaking, cannabis users can be divided into those of adult use and non-adult use. Among the non-adult uses are medicinal, cosmetic, and industrial, among others. That leaves us with a wide range of target audiences, so a good advertising strategy can help grow your brand and create recognition around your product, this includes media strategies, logos and labels according to your audience, and that is able to represent the concept of your brand or business.

Here are some of the reasons why the packaging and labeling of cannabis products is so important:

Customer and child safety

The label of your product must guarantee all the details about it, thus making the best responsible use of its components and avoiding complications that could harm the customer and your business. You must integrate the cannabinoid profile, excipients, instructions for use, and expiration date.

Also, ensure that the packaging can protect the products from exposure to the environment that can alter their condition and that it is safe around children to avoid accidental consumption or other possible results that would not be beneficial for your brand or for those users with children at home

Attract customers

Once you establish your target audience, it is important to direct your brand image so that it is attractive to them. This includes colors, fonts, and product design, all of which influence how customers view and choose services. In addition, it creates brand recognition, since through the label and packaging they can easily and quickly recognize the products of your business. In other words, it facilitates the loyalty and growth of a customer base.

Cannabinoid and terpene profile

A very important aspect for cannabis users is the cannabinoid and terpene profile of any product they are going to consume. As each compound has a predominant effect, it is necessary to make known through the packaging which are the predominant compounds, and especially, the concentration of each one. For example, there are those who have preferences for cannabinoids such as CBD or CBG, and others who seek the entourage effect with a variety of natural compounds. Therefore, if they can access this information in an easy way, it can quickly capture their attention.

Education tool

The product description on the label can function as an educational space for customers, raising awareness of the responsible and appropriate use of cannabinoids, and thus disseminating information about the different uses of cannabis, as well as the concerns that correspond to each product.
