In an industry where transparency is key, Flora Arbor is taking a major step forward in ensuring consumers know exactly what they’re getting. The Illinois-based cannabis distributor has updated its packaging to include a simple yet powerful statement:
“We Do Not Remediate.”
For those unfamiliar, remediation refers to processes used to “clean” cannabis that has failed microbial or contaminant testing. While remediation can make cannabis legally sellable, it often degrades terpenes, alters the flower’s structure, and impacts overall quality. By proudly stating that their products are never remediated, Flora Arbor is making it clear that they prioritize clean, high-quality cannabis from the start.
What This Means for Consumers
If you’ve ever noticed flower that’s excessively dry, oddly spongy, or lacking in aroma despite high THC numbers, there’s a chance it was remediated. Many consumers and industry professionals argue that remediation can strip away what makes cannabis truly great, its natural terpene profile, taste, and effects.
With Flora Arbor’s updated packaging, consumers can feel confident that brands under their umbrella, including Zip, Napalm, Royal Tree, Tical, and Khalifa Kush, are committed to offering pure, unaltered cannabis that doesn’t need a second round of processing to pass state testing.
Setting a Higher Standard
In a market where some brands quietly remediate their products without disclosure, Flora Arbor is taking a stand for transparency. This move aligns with a growing consumer demand for authenticity and clean cannabis. When you pick up a product from Flora Arbor’s lineup, you know it’s tested, trusted, and untouched by remediation.
This shift is a win for consumers and the cannabis industry as a whole. It pushes other brands to rethink their practices and encourages cultivators to focus on growing cleaner, higher-quality cannabis from the start, rather than relying on remediation as a backup plan.
Final Thoughts
Flora Arbor’s decision to print “We Do Not Remediate” directly on their packaging is more than just a marketing move, it’s a statement of integrity. Whether you’re a medical patient looking for pure, unaltered flower or a recreational consumer who values quality over inflated THC numbers, this is a step in the right direction.
As more brands embrace transparency, it’s up to consumers to support companies that prioritize quality and honesty. Next time you’re at the dispensary, keep an eye out for Flora Arbor’s lineup and know that when you see those words, you’re getting cannabis the way it was meant to be.
