Packaging cannabis for Canada?
Health Canada’s rules go beyond child resistance. Cannabis packaging sold in Canada must follow plain-packaging requirements, including a uniform colour, limits on branding and finishes, and the standardized cannabis symbol and health warning messages. We help you choose compliant formats and finishes and provide label templates, but your final artwork should always be checked against Health Canada’s current packaging and labelling guide.

Digital, flexo & rotogravure
Digital printing gets you to market fastest. Flexo and rotogravure bring your unit cost down as runs grow. Whichever you choose, you get faster lead times and the most competitive pricing structure in North America.
10,000 units: digital is usually the fastest and best-value choice.

No plates and no setup, so artwork goes straight to press. Ideal for short runs, multiple designs, seasonal flavours and test launches.
