Biodegradable and Compostable Pop-Top Tubes

Eco-friendly, familiar and child-resistant, these compostable pop-top tubes come in multiple sizes and colors. These plastic pop top doob tubes look and feel like every other plastic pop top tube, but are made from backyard-compostable, naturally occurring bio-polymers known as PHA (polyhydroxyalkanoates) that fully break down in a home-compost pile within 2 years, leaving no micro-plastic particulates or harmful chemicals.

Plus, these natural plastic pop-top tubes are not only better for the environment, but they preserve the full functionality of our plastic pop-lock child-resistant tubes that your customers expect.

They are great for single pre-rolls and multi-packs, all while highlighting your brand’s commitment to protecting our planet’s green future.

Put simply: all compostable material is biodegradable, but not all biodegradable material is compostable.

Biodegradable materials will break down over time into smaller and smaller pieces, eventually. That doesn’t always mean it breaks down safely or completely, and it may take specific conditions to do so.

Compostable materials are organic matter that break down fully into soil nutrients and leave behind no toxic residue, all within a specific timeframe. It may require specific conditions, such as heat, pressure or microbes. There are also specific standards that need to be met.

Backyard Compostable materials are can break down fully, safely and within a reasonable timeframe in a typical home compost pile, without the specific heat, pressure or microbial conditions of an industrial facility.

Scientists predict that by 2050, there will be 12 billion metric tons of plastic at dumpsites, so the simplest answer is that we all live on the planet and are going to need all the clean water, air and soil we can hang on to, so we should all do our part to shrink our footprint on the planet.

But beyond that, it’s good business, especially in the cannabis industry.

A 2024 consumer study by Simon-Kucher found that 64% of consumers rank sustainability as a top-three purchasing consideration and a full 54% are now willing to pay a premium for sustainable products, up from 35 percent just two years ago.

Meanwhile, a 2024 PWC Global survey found that even in the face of growing inflation concerns, consumers are willing to pay up to 9.7% more for sustainably-sourced products.

Within the cannabis sector, those numbers increase further, with studies showing that cannabis consumers over-index on a sustainable packing preference. A 2023 Brightfield survey, for example, found that 69% of cannabis consumers sometimes or often purchase products with sustainable packaging.

So if your pre-roll brand leans into its green roots in search of tapping that market, biodegradable and compostable pre-roll packaging is a must-have to attract to your brand that the customers you are seeking.
