Child-resistant closures are NOT just a gimmicky add-on

Some products are meant for adults only and are definitely not meant to be in the small hands of young ones. In fact, it can be dangerous. Yet there are a lot of myths out there about child-resistant packaging that make manufacturers nervous, including that it’s too expensive. Or it takes longer to get. Or you’re just not sure who you can trust to know the packaging regulations for your specific market.

ACW has solved ALL of these problems! We are trusted experts who helped pioneer the child-resistant landscape. Child-resistant packaging is not some gimmicky upsell for us, it’s a way we can partner with you to keep your product selling fast while being socially responsible and protecting our children – all while keeping your costs minimal and with rapid turnaround times.

We serve a wide range of markets including THC and CBD, tobacco products, prescription drugs, diet products, chemicals, detergents, and more. Specifically for the cannabis sector, we can provide top load and side load pouches in addition to compliant exit bags for dispensaries.

Did you know?

• Flexible packaging uses less resources to produce and can also be less expensive than traditional bottles and jars.
• Flexible packaging reduces shipping costs because you can ship more flexible bags/pouches than rigid containers at one time. (That means less emissions, too!)
