Eco Four Twenty
The days of poking holes in a gatorade bottle and filling it full of bounce sheets are over. Unless that’s your thing… No judgement. Eco Four Twenty is one of a handful of companies that make personal air filters for smokers.
A personal smoke/vapor filter takes in your smoke and filters it. How do you ask? Eco Four Twenty uses two filters, a hepa for dust and particles, and a carbon filter for trapping odour. Because of companies like Eco Four Twenty, smokers everywhere can enjoy a private, discreet experience. This Toronto based company has helped many Canadians keep their environment smoke-free. Wink wink.
Canadian Lumber
Put the chainsaws down! There’s a rolling paper company coming through that’s got us picking up the dual axes instead! From Nova Scotia, Canadian Lumber has all natural rolling paper and tip packs in three different materials. All of which are ethically sourced, all the way down to the ethically sourced glue strips.
Canadian Lumber’s 3 rolling papers are “The Woods”, “The Greens”, and “The Hippy”. “The Woods” come from 100% natural wood pulp, “The Greens” come from 100% pure hemp. And the Hippy is a 50/50 blend of Hemp and Flax seed. For a full breakdown on the differences between them, check out Canadian Lumber’s guide.
Zig Zag
Colt 45 and two ___ ____, baby that’s all we need. Come on, finish the line, you know it. And for good reason. Zig Zag didn’t come out of nowhere recently. They’re not a product of legalization. Zig Zag has a story that spans nearly 150 years. Before Cannabis was a conversation, Zig Zag was looking to help people roll whatever they were smoking. Which included cannabis.
Zig Zag was actually founded in France around the end of the 19th century. When a French soldier had his pipe shot out of his hand, he was forced to improvise to smoke his tobacco. He used a piece of paper he had to smoke a cigarette and the story circulated. When the story spread, it inspired a brand. A “Zouave” is a French infantryman from the late 1800’s. He typically wore a red and blue outfit, and you can still find a “Zouave” adorned on your rolling papers.
Grav Labs
Founded in Austin, Texas in 2004, Grav Labs makes pipes, bongs, bubblers, dab rigs and glass joints. Grav Labs was founded on the basis of designing artistic, functional cannabis tools.
Slow Cannabis legalization and the changes in cannabis perception have brought forth consumer-first companies designing better cannabis tools. The days of the water bottle, apple and soda can pipes are over. There may be a ceramic soda can pipe on the market though. Legalization in the US and globally is yet to come, but everyday it gets closer. It’s a long story with a slow burn.
RAW
For many, RAW is a household name. Be it their filters, papers, or cones. Many are used to the brown paper and the three red letters. RAW. It was once stated that “Raw is War” but when you get passed a raw joint raw typically means peace.
Josh Kesselman, founder of RAW, Juicy Jay’s and Element, has built a brand around sharing and ethically sourced products that improve the smoke experience. RAW rolling paper sustainably in ethiopia. Sometimes it’s nice to start with a raw king cone, then enjoy a waffle cone.
Stündenglass
Everybody’s seen those homemade gravity bongs. People take a two litre bottle and butcher it, then use a bucket filled with water to create a large amount of smoke. When the cannabis world saw Seth Rogen smoking from a Stündenglass gravity bong, our jaws dropped.
Stündenglass is a Grenco Sciences product, the people that brought you the G pen. The Stündenglass, which is German for ‘hourglass” utilizes gravity and water for a powerful hit. It should really be called the stonedenmacher.
Puffco
Cannabis concentrates and oils are a relatively new concept. New products and categories come from loosening of regulations and new inspiration. More begets more and new begets new. Meaning, as we experience more new things, we come to expect and create new things ourselves. We are also at a time where new categories will pop up, but not stick around.
Watching companies like Puffco create a range of concentrates and flower products to improve consumption methods is exciting. Roger Volodarsky and the Puffco team in California have created an innovative line-up of products. They have digital dab rigs, pens and even a discrete bong. It makes you wonder what they’re going to come up with next.
