Packaging FAQs

What makes Budder different from a traditional packaging supplier?

Budder is a creative-led cannabis packaging supplier. We bring design, sourcing, and production together under one roof, so we're thinking about how packaging looks, how it performs, what it costs, and how efficiently it can be produced from the beginning.

Our Brand to Shelf™ approach goes beyond packaging to consider how the brand shows up at retail—from the package itself to displays, merchandising, and other physical brand touchpoints.

Do you offer stock packaging or custom packaging?

Both. Stock packaging is often the right choice when speed, lower quantities, or budget are the priority. We can customize stock formats through printing, labels, sleeves, boxes, and other creative packaging solutions to make them feel unique to your brand.

When greater differentiation is important, we can develop fully custom cannabis packaging, including custom structures, materials, finishes, and components. Often, the smartest solution is somewhere in between.

Do you offer both packaging design and production?

Yes. Budder provides cannabis packaging design and production as one integrated service. We can take a project from initial concept through structural design, materials, prototyping, print production, quality control, and delivery.

Already have finished artwork? That's fine too. We can work strictly as your packaging supplier to source, value-engineer, and produce your existing designs while ensuring the best quality.

Can you help reduce our current packaging costs?

Yes. Because we work across design, engineering, sourcing, and production, we can often identify efficiencies that aren't obvious when those functions are handled separately. For example, finding universal packaging receptacles that can be used across product SKUs or strains can improve many aspects of your packaging solution from cost efficiency, operational ease and design improved brand impact.

We can review your current packaging and pricing, explore alternative materials and production methods, and quote comparable solutions. Our sourcing network and integrated process allow us to offer competitive pricing and, in many cases, meet or beat what brands are currently paying.

How do you make sure the finished packaging matches the design?

Our designers stay involved through production. We oversee dielines, materials, color, print methods, finishes, samples, and quality-control checkpoints to help ensure the final product stays true to the approved creative.

Because our packaging design services and production teams work together, there isn't a traditional handoff between a design agency and an outside supplier where details can get lost.

Do you offer sustainable packaging options?

Yes. We can explore recyclable materials, reduced-material structures, paper-based alternatives, reusable formats, and other sustainable packaging options.

There's no single solution that's right for every product, so we consider regulatory requirements, product protection, performance, quantities, and budget before recommending the best approach.

How do displays fit into your packaging process?

We call our approach Brand to Shelf™ because packaging is only one part of how customers experience a brand at retail.

Budder designs and produces both packaging and retail displays, allowing us to think holistically about how your brand moves from the package in someone's hand to the shelf, counter, or display. The result is a more consistent physical brand experience rather than treating product packaging design and retail merchandising as separate projects.

How long does custom cannabis packaging take?

Timing depends on the type of packaging, level of customization, quantity, sampling requirements, and shipping method. Stock packaging with custom printing can typically move faster, while fully bespoke packaging may require additional time for engineering, tooling, samples, and production.

We consider timing early in the custom packaging design process and can recommend stock, semi-custom, or fully custom solutions based on your desired launch date and budget.
