Clamshells
Clamshell Packaging FAQ
Which hardware formats fit thermoformed clamshell blister packaging?
Thermoformed clamshell blister packs accommodate 0.5ml and 1ml vape cartridges, 1ml distillate syringes, pre-roll tubes, and multi-cone paper joint configurations. Form-fitting plastic cavities stabilize glass tanks and syringe tips, preventing product movement and physical breakage during transit.
To verify cavity dimensions, backing card insert specifications, and outer shell height before running packaging lines, check technical specification tables inside each product listing.
- Cartridge & Syringe Blister Packs: Custom cavities engineered for 0.5ml tanks, 1ml vape cartridges, and 1ml glass oil syringes.
- Pre-Roll Drop-In Inserts: Precision trays built to secure 3 full-gram joints, 5 three-quarter-gram joints, or 5 half-gram pre-rolls.
- Tube Holding Clamshells: Thermoformed outer shells contoured to house child-resistant pre-roll joint tubes and vape hardware.
Do clamshell blister packs include printed paper insert cards?
Paper insert cards are included only with designated SKUs, while other clamshell designs ship as standalone thermoformed plastic trays. Review individual product descriptions and technical specification tables before ordering to confirm whether a slide-in paper backing card is included with your specific SKU.

Are thermoformed clamshell blister packs child resistant?
Standard thermoformed clamshell blister packs are non-child-resistant visual packaging meant for retail display shelves. For products requiring statutory child safety compliance, pair thermoformed insert trays with a certified child-resistant container, such as an ASTM D3475 or Title 16 CFR § 1700.20 compliant pre-roll tube, or enclose the clamshell inside a certified exit pouch.
