The extracts segment of the cannabis industry has grown at a staggering rate over the last three or four years, and vape cartridges are a crucial driver. Consumers can enjoy the benefits of discreet, potent plug-and-play oils that give them predictable dosing on the go. There’s no serious learning curve to get the dosing correct, and you can feel the difference between a single dose and a few concurrent doses. Flavored carts make the experience more palatable than smoking, especially for new consumers. Plus, carts allow you to come back from a smoke break without smelling skunky.
Cartridges are efficient products. The hardware design is relatively standardized. Carts can be filled at the rate of thousands per hour. The oils can be extracted from flower that isn’t suitable to sell as smokeable. To be clear, a lot of un-smokeable flower gets used for products like edibles and topicals, just as imperfect fruits and vegetables are used for sauces, pastes, and jams. Even flower of completely garbage quality can be purged of harmful additives through the extraction process and used in carts.
