Pollen Gear Launches Child-Resistant Cannabis Jar

A new child-resistant jar has been created that is customizable, and can be used for storing dry herbs, edibles, solid concentrates, or topicals.

Pollen Gear, developers of cannabis packaging that promotes product safety and responsible consumption in legal cannabis markets, has launched the SoftSquare Jar. Available exclusively through parent company Greenlane, the introduction of the SoftSquare Jar expands the company’s line of proprietary ASTM/CPSC child-resistant compliant packaging products.

The SoftSquare Jar is crafted from 4.5-mm thick glass and is available in 5 ml and 30 drams. The jars feature a wide mouth and rounded edges, and are designed to maintain product freshness and increase shelf life. The jar’s cap is offered in rounded square or soft square styles, and helps maintain an airtight, smell-proof, and water-resistant seal.

Instead of sourcing off-the-shelf products, Pollen Gear’s team of designers conceptualized the jar from the ground up. Its in-house, state-of-the-art engineering technologies, from 3D printers to laser cutters, allow the team to test every aspect of each design, from sound, to feel, to appearance, said Ed Kilduff, company founder,

“The SoftSquare Jar continues Pollen Gear’s commitment to design-driven innovation in packaging for cannabis,” said Kilduff. “We set out to design a jar that stands out from other packaging with its unique and playful cube shape while still being responsible and child-resistant.”
