CBD oil packaging:Why glass is more sustainable than plastic
When store CBD oil, it is important to take into account that heat, light, and exposure to oxygen impact the shelf life of CBD. Even the type of carrier oil can have an impact. Good quality CBD oil is usually packaged in medical grade, airtight dark glass bottles and that’s not for nothing. The dark glass reduces light exposure and helps with temperature control. The lid keeps out excess oxygen and other potential contaminants, all of which can affect freshness and speed up expiration.The dark brown, green, blue and black glass bottles help to keep out the light because it can cause the contents to degrade.Plastic cannabis packaging is not designed for long-term storage. Glass packaging is airtight, free of chemicals, and easily recyclable. Plastic containers are porous and can contain toxic substances that leach into CBD oil and cause environmental pollution.Glass contain no chemicals that can leach into food, and glass can be safely washed at high temperatures.
