Packaging and Irradiation

The marihuana is packaged into resealable, plastic foiled-lined pouches and labelled. The label indicates the THC content for that specific lot of product, the expiry date and storage instructions.
After processing, the product is stored and maintained under strictly controlled environmental conditions until shipment. The metalized sealed plastic pouches ensure that the moisture content is maintained and that the product is not degraded by light.
The product has been irradiated by gamma irradiation to reduce to undetectable levels, potentially harmful bacteria and microbial load which may cause spoilage of product. The lowest dose required is utilized for the irradiation process (i.e. 10 kilogray - standard level for herbs and spices), ensuring that the chemical characteristics of the marihuana product are not altered. Irradiation also ensures that users who may have compromised immune systems are not exposed to toxic spores which occur naturally in plants. For more information concerning the irradiation of food, consult the Health Canada Web site
