Cannabis Infused Drinks
State & federal packaging requirements

CANNABIS

§C15413 “(b) A package containing cannabis goods shall be tamper-evident and child-resistant. If the package contains multiple servings, the package must also be resealable.” 

Cannabis-infused beverages are growing rapidly and are expected to reach over $2 billion in annual sales by 2026.

Why do THC Infused Drinks currently, use a
non-recyclable plastic closure?…

Recycling

is key for our

sustainable planet.

Plastic closures

are not recyclable.

Brands need aluminum options.

Pop Top Lock delivers.

Currently, the Pop Top Lock team has not found any aluminum on aluminum SOT can end for sale for the beverage industry that is 100% fully recyclable that meets the federal and state requirements for Cannabis drinks; child-resistant, tamper-evident, and reclosable.

Cannibus makers use a plastic on aluminum closure because that is their only option. To the great misfortune of a brand’s sustainability goals and ethos, all of those cans are going into landfills or the ocean. We are losing valuable aluminum by using plastic closures and continue to maintain and grow human-created pollution to the environment. This problem is only getting worse as the cannabis-infused drink market grows at a rapid pace. 

Pop Top Lock Cannabis design allows Manufacturers to have a choice - to provide fully recyclable cans that can be recycled forever… assuming they are not using plastic wraps.

The Cannabis market worldwide is projected to reach a revenue of US$51.27bn in 2023.

It is expected to show an annual growth rate (CAGR 2023-2028) of 14.95%, resulting in a market volume of US$102.90bn by 2028.

The plastic packaging for cannabis goes beyond beverages and there is a lot to explore and create to offer brands recyclable options.

Pop Top Lock is a global solution 

for sustainable packaging the cannabis industry to

rid plastic pollution

and stop unnecessary aluminum waste.

Cannabis drink manufacturers that use Pop Top Lock can save

billions of dollars

*Recycling helps your brand bottom line*

Saving this money will keep the aluminum can wholesale price stabilized as there will not be an “aluminum shortage” as there has been in the past. And, we don’t need to have unnecessary CO2 emissions and expenses mining pure aluminum.

THC-infused drink sales are projected to grow globally at a CAGR of 5.6% by 2026. SkyQuest projects that the aluminum cans market will attain a USD 87.1 billion value by 2030. 

The demand for aluminum is growing, especially in the beverage space, and the supply of aluminum needs to be maximized for brands to maintain profit margins.

Recycling helps our earth heal and sustain a circular economy and it also helps the manufacturer’s bottom line by maintaining our aluminum supply which allows drink manufacturers and supplier costs of goods to remain low.
