Custom Concentrate Container Packaging Design Trends For Cannabis And CBD Brands

If you sell live rosin, resin, wax or diamonds, you already know: the jar is small, but the drama can be big.
Leaking lids, dried out terp profile, labels that don’t pass compliance check… none of this help you sell more grams.

This is where custom concentrate container packaging comes in. And not just any box or jar, but packaging that is:

• compliant,
• easy to run on your filling line,
• and actually looks premium on shelf.

Below I’ll walk through the key design trends we see at Cheap Cannabis Packaging / Zhibang, and how you can use them for your own cannabis or CBD brand.

Custom Concentrate Container Packaging For Cannabis And CBD Brands

5ml & 9ml Glass Concentrate Jars And Amber Options

Most concentrates are landing in 5ml or 9ml glass jars now. 5ml fits single-gram styles nicely; 9ml gives more headspace for tools and inserts. Amber options help with UV-sensitive batches like live resin.

Why brands move to custom jars instead of random stock:

• Real fit for your exact fill volume and viscosity
• Thread profile that doesn’t crunch after cold-chain
• CR-compatible finish so you can run certified child-resistant closures
• Amber or clear depending on how much you want to show off the product

From the manufacturing side, Zhibang builds these jars with cleanroom QC, AQL checks, torque maps, and leak testing, so your team doesn’t discover problems when the pallet already at the distro dock.

PTFE Liner And Silicone Insert For Concentrate Container Packaging

Material combo is a huge part of current design trends:

• PTFE-backed liners in the cap → low extractables, tighter seal
• Silicone inserts → no more “mining session” to dig your dab out of the corners
• Optional ceramic dishes → neutral taste and clean heat transfer

Here’s a quick cheat table you can drop straight into your SOP or brief:

You don’t need to over-engineer it. Pick the right jar, cap, and insert. Then lock the torque and you are already ahead of many brands.

Child Resistant Concentrate Container Packaging And Compliance

ISO 8317 Child-Resistant Packaging For Concentrates

Regulators don’t care how pretty your box is if the closure fails.
For concentrates, the big standard is ISO 8317 and the US rule 16 CFR 1700 for repeat-use child-resistant packaging.

Zhibang designs CR systems like:

• push-and-turn shells that pass panel tests,
• stable thread pitch,
• knurled caps that still open with gloves on.

The style is “compliant but not complicated.” Your adult customer should open it without going to the gym first.

ASTM D4991 Leak Test, Torque Spec And Seal Integrity

Another trend is actually testing the jar / cap combo instead of just “feels tight enough”.

On the factory side we run:

You might not quote these standards in your marketing, but they sit behind fewer “my jars leaked in transit” tickets. That’s real commercial value.

Magnetic Closure Concentrate Container Boxes And Rigid Paper Packaging

Custom Magnetic Closure Concentrate Glass Jar Container Boxes

Now let’s talk about the outer box, because concentrates are small but high value.

On Cheap Cannabis Packaging you’ll see lots of magnetic clamshell and drawer boxes for 5ml, 6ml, 7ml, and 9ml jars:

• built from rigid paperboard with EVA foam inserts,
• soft-touch film on top so the box feels smooth in hand,
• spot UV logo to pop your brand mark.

This structure solves a few pain points at once:

• Protect fragile glass from back-room chaos
• Give you bigger print area for compliance and story
• Auto-closing magnets make it feel premium without being too flashy
• Foam pocket stops jars from rattling or breaking

Honestly, this is the reason many brands move their “tier A” concentrates into rigid magnetic boxes. You don’t just sell oil, you sell the unboxing.

Sliding Drawer Boxes For Wax Concentrate Container Glass Dab Jars

Another popular format is the paper slider box for 5ml jars:

• 6×6×3 cm drawer style, EVA insert shaped exactly to the jar
• 1200 gsm board + matte lamination for durability and print quality

Drawer style has super simple user flow:

1. thumb push →
2. tray slide →
3. jar in hand.

No fight with tabs, no torn carton. On the line side, the tray can run on simple kitting jigs, which your team will like more than crazy die-cuts.

Sustainable Cannabis Concentrate Container Packaging Materials

Soft-Touch Rigid Paper Box And Eco-Friendly EVA Foam Inserts

Sustainability is not just for flower bags. For concentrates, we see:

• rigid paper shells instead of all-plastic clamshells,
• EVA or upgraded foams that are low-odor and more stable,
• fewer unnecessary plastic windows.

Cheap Cannabis Packaging already positions its paper tube and rigid box ranges as eco-safe and stylish, and those ideas carry straight into concentrate container packaging too.

You don’t have to market it as super green. Just spec materials that don’t smell, don’t crumble, and don’t embarrass your brand in 2–3 years when rules get tighter.

Branding And Custom Printing For Concentrate Container Packaging

Custom Concentrate Container Box, Spot UV And Matte Lamination

Design trend here is minimal but upscale:

• clean layouts, big breathing space,
• soft-touch lamination that feels almost rubbery,
• spot UV or foil just on the logo or strain badge.

On your site we see this combo used again and again:

• magnetic gift box
• foam holder matched to jar
• simple front panel: logo, strain, net weight
• detailed info (THC/CBD, batch, warnings) on side or back

It works because:

• dispensary staff can read it fast,
• photo and video content look clean,
• compliance officer doesn’t yell.

Brand Consistent Child Resistant Packaging Across Categories

Remember, your customer doesn’t see “pre roll”, “vape”, “concentrate” as separate supply chains. For them it’s just your brand wall.

Zhibang supports:

• Child Resistant Packaging (tubes, boxes, CR caps),
• Concentrate Container Packaging (jars + boxes),
• Paper Tube Packaging,
• Pre Roll Packaging,
• Vape Cartridge Packaging,

all under one roof.

That means you can run one visual system (color palette, fonts, logo lockup) across:

• 5ml dab jars in magnetic boxes,
• pre roll drawer packs,
• vape carton + tube combos.

Same supplier, same print control, less “why is this red different from that red?” moment.

Real Use Cases And OEM / ODM For Concentrate Container Packaging

For a brand owner, the real trend is: standard footprints, custom branding.

• repeatable inserts,
• print files that you tweak, not re-invent.

This is exactly the OEM / ODM style Zhibang runs: bulk wholesale, private label, and pre-kitted sets so you don’t chase five vendors just to launch one concentrate line.
