Vape Carts & Vape Pens FAQs

Answers to the most common questions about our Vape Carts & Vape Pens

What types of cannabis vape cartridge and vape pen packaging does Sana Packaging offer?

Sana Packaging offers wholesale cannabis vape packaging for loose cartridges, assembled vape pens, and other compatible vaporizer hardware.

Current packaging options include:

• 78mm pre-roll tubes for select 0.5g and 1g vape cartridges

• 110mm pre-roll tubes for vape pens up to approximately 10cm long

• 116mm pre-roll tubes for longer vape pens and compatible hardware

• Plant-based hemp plastic containers for select 0.5g and 1g vape cartridges

• Customizable flexible pouches

• Hemp paperboard outer packaging and inserts

• Customizable Stone Paper Tamper Bands

• Printing and labeling options

Materials, dimensions, colors, closures, case quantities, customization options, and inventory vary by product. Sana Packaging supplies outer packaging only, not vape cartridges, pens, batteries, cannabis oil, or other vaporizer hardware.

Which vape cartridge or vape pen package should I choose?

Choose the package based on the complete hardware dimensions, product configuration, desired protection, closure requirements, material, retail presentation, customization method, and budget.

Common starting points include:

• Loose 0.5g or 1g cartridges: select 78mm reclaimed ocean-bound plastic, plant-based hemp plastic, or PCR pop-top pre-roll tubes

• Assembled vape pens up to approximately 10cm long: 110mm reclaimed ocean-bound plastic or plant-based hemp plastic pre-roll tubes

• Longer assembled vape pens: select 116mm reclaimed ocean-bound plastic pre-roll tubes

• Larger or bundled configurations: Sana Hemp Containers, custom flexible pouches, or custom paperboard packaging with an appropriate insert

• Custom retail presentation: labeled or printed tubes, full-color flexible pouches, or paperboard outer packaging

Oil capacity alone does not determine package fit. Two cartridges described as 0.5g or 1g may have different diameters, mouthpieces, caps, and overall lengths.

Measure the complete finished hardware and test it in a sample package before placing a production order.

What is the difference between vape cartridge tubes, vape pen tubes, hemp containers, and flexible pouches?

Each format provides a different combination of protection, presentation, closure style, material, capacity, and customization options.

• 78mm pre-roll tubes provide compact rigid packaging for select loose 0.5g and 1g cartridges.

• 110mm and 116mm pre-roll tubes provide rigid packaging for longer assembled vape pens and compatible hardware.

• The Sana Hemp Container is a larger, rigid package made from a 100% plant-based hemp plastic biocomposite. It provides additional branding and labeling space and includes an integrated child-resistant sliding closure.

• Customizable flexible pouches are lightweight and support custom dimensions, full-color printing, multiple finishes, barrier options, and several zipper configurations.

• Paperboard boxes and inserts provide customizable secondary packaging and can help organize or position hardware for retail presentation.

Flexible pouches and paperboard boxes may require an insert or other protective component when movement, impact protection, or a precise presentation is important.

Are vape cartridges, pens, batteries, inserts, and tamper bands included with the packaging?

No. Vape cartridges, vape pens, batteries, cannabis oil, mouthpieces, charging accessories, and other vaporizer hardware are not included.

Most plastic vape cartridge and vape pen tubes include an integrated closure. The Sana Hemp Container is sold as a complete container-and-lid set.

Flexible pouch closures are selected as part of the custom pouch configuration. Available options include child-resistant zippers, standard zippers, and no-zipper constructions.

Stone Paper Tamper Bands, custom inserts, and paperboard outer packaging are sold separately unless the quote specifically includes them.

Confirm every component included in the proposed packaging system before approving an order.

Is Sana Packaging's vape cartridge and vape pen packaging child-resistant?

Yes. Sana Packaging offers child-resistant vape packaging, but not every package or component is inherently child-resistant.

Child-resistant options include select:

• 78mm cartridge tubes with locking or pop-top closures

• 110mm vape pen tubes with locking closures

• 116mm vape pen tubes with pop-top closures

• Sana Hemp Containers with integrated sliding closures

• Flexible pouches configured with certified child-resistant zippers

A vape cartridge, vape pen, flexible pouch without a child-resistant zipper, paperboard box, insert, label, or tamper band does not provide child resistance on its own.

Confirm the certification, testing standard, complete package configuration, and regulatory requirements applicable to every market where the finished vape product will be sold.

Is the vape packaging food-grade and FDA-compliant?

Most Sana Packaging vape cartridge and vape pen tubes are food-grade and FDA-compliant, including select reclaimed ocean-bound plastic and PCR tube formats. Custom flexible pouches are also available in food-grade, FDA-compliant configurations.

Most vape packaging surrounds a sealed cartridge or an assembled pen and should not come into direct contact with the vape oil. Food-grade or FDA-compliant packaging does not establish the safety or compliance of the cartridge, battery, oil, heating element, or finished vaporizer product.

Documentation varies by package, material, closure, printing method, insert, and complete configuration. Contact Sana Packaging for current documentation for the exact components being considered.

Is vape cartridge and vape pen packaging airtight, odor-proof, or leakproof?

Select packaging formats may offer odor-resistant, moisture-resistant, or tightly sealed outer packaging. Sana Packaging does not make a blanket airtight, odor-proof, or leakproof guarantee for every package-and-hardware combination.

An outer tube, container, pouch, or box cannot prevent leakage originating from the cartridge hardware. Performance depends on:

• Cartridge construction and seals

• Mouthpiece and cap configuration

• Package dimensions and orientation

• Closure operation

• Inserts or cushioning

• Storage and transportation temperatures

• Pressure and altitude changes

• Handling and repeated use

Test the complete filled cartridge or assembled pen under expected storage, transportation, and retail conditions before production.

Does the vape packaging provide tamper evidence?

Child resistance and tamper evidence are separate packaging functions.

Vape cartridge and vape pen packaging is not automatically tamper-evident unless the product listing or custom quote specifically includes that feature. Compatible options may include:

• Perforated Stone Paper Tamper Bands

• Tamper-evident labels or stickers

• Heat-sealable pouch tops

• Pouches that must be torn open

• Custom paperboard constructions

• Sealed paperboard outer packaging

• Other project-specific seals

Adding a tamper-evident component does not make a non-child-resistant package child-resistant. Confirm both requirements before finalizing the packaging system.

Which responsible material options are available for vape packaging?

Available outer-packaging materials include:

• 100% reclaimed ocean-bound HDPE

• 100% reclaimed ocean-bound PET

• 100% reclaimed ocean-bound PP

• 100% post-consumer recycled PP

• A 100% plant-based hemp plastic biocomposite

• Standard and post-consumer recycled flexible films containing up to 65% PCR content

• Traditional paperboard, post-consumer waste paperboard, and hemp paperboard

• Stone Paper Tamper Bands made from approximately 80% calcium carbonate and 20% polyethylene

Recycled content, plant-based content, recyclability, biodegradability, and compostability are different attributes.

Pure-resin plastic outer packaging may be recyclable where local programs accept the material. Plant-based hemp plastic is not certified as biodegradable or compostable and should not be marketed or disposed of that way.

These material attributes apply to the packaging, not the vape cartridge, battery, heating element, or electronic device inside it. Recycling and disposal requirements for vape hardware differ from those for the outer package.

Can I order custom vape cartridge or vape pen packaging?

Yes. Available customization options include:

• Traditional labels

• Label printing and application

• Digital or pad printing on eligible tubes and containers

• Full-color printed flexible pouches

• Standard and custom pouch dimensions

• Gloss, matte, soft-touch matte, and specialty pouch finishes

• Custom colors for eligible plastic packaging

• Customizable Stone Paper Tamper Bands

• Paperboard boxes and inserts

• Compliance and product-information labeling

Available printing methods, printable areas, artwork requirements, minimum order quantities, lead times, and pricing vary by the selected package.

Custom colors for eligible rigid packaging may require a pallet-level or larger production order. Custom flexible pouches generally require at least 5,000 units, with at least 2,000 pouches per SKU or design.

A digital proof is provided for approval before custom production begins.

How do I order or request samples of wholesale vape packaging?

Stock vape cartridge and vape pen packaging is generally sold in cases. Current quantities include:

• 1,000 units per case for most 78mm, 110mm, and 116mm reclaimed ocean-bound or hemp plastic tubes

• 1,200 units per case for 78mm PCR pop-top tubes

• 1,000 units per case for 90mm PCR pop-top tubes

• 500 complete sets per case for Sana Hemp Containers

• 4,000 Stone Paper Tamper Bands per roll

Custom flexible pouches are quote-based and generally require a minimum order of 5,000 total units.

Samples are available for most products. Use samples to test:

• Complete hardware dimensions and package fit

• Cartridge and mouthpiece clearance

• Closure operation

• Child resistance and tamper evidence

• Movement and impact protection

• Inserts, labels, seals, and outer packaging

• Leakage and temperature performance

• Storage and transportation

• Assembly and labeling processes

• The intended customer experience

Blank, in-stock packaging generally ships the next business day. Custom lead times depend on the product and customization method.

Can Sana Packaging help me build a complete vape cartridge or vape pen packaging system?

Yes. Sana Packaging can help pair cartridges, assembled vape pens, and compatible hardware with tubes, containers, flexible pouches, inserts, tamper-evident features, labels, printing, and paperboard outer packaging.

When requesting a recommendation, provide:

• Loose cartridge, assembled pen, or disposable-device configuration

• Cartridge capacity

• Complete hardware length, diameter, and weight

• Mouthpiece, protective cap, and battery dimensions

• Desired package orientation and unit count
