Child-Proofing Success: Essential CR Packaging Solutions for LPs

In the cannabis industry, safety is more than a checkbox - it’s a promise. Every licensed producer (LP) is responsible for ensuring their products stay out of children’s hands while remaining accessible to adult consumers. That’s where MedLock™ leads the way.

MedLock’s child-resistant (CR) packaging is engineered to meet and exceed CPSC and ISO 8317 standards—the gold standard for child safety worldwide. From PET Jars to Pop-Top Tubes and Click-Lock™ closures, MedLock delivers packaging that protects your product, your customers, and your brand integrity.

Why Child Resistance Matters More Than Ever

Accidental ingestion remains one of the most pressing safety concerns in cannabis. For LPs, failing to meet CR standards can result in failed audits, recalls, or even license suspension. But child resistance doesn’t have to mean frustration or inefficiency.

MedLock’s approach focuses on functional safety - packaging that’s secure for children yet intuitive for adults. Every design undergoes independent, third-party testing to verify compliance with U.S. CPSC 16 CFR 1700.20 and ISO 8317 protocols.

What that means for LPs:

• Certified proof that your packaging meets global child-safety standards.

• Streamlined documentation for Health Canada and FDA submissions.

• Consumer trust built directly into your packaging experience.

When your packaging is MedLock-certified, you don’t have to explain compliance - you can prove it.

The Click-Lock™ Closure: Safety That Clicks

MedLock’s proprietary Click-Lock™ closure system is the industry’s benchmark for compliant CR packaging. This patented cap integrates child resistance and tamper evidence in a single twist-to-lock motion, simplifying operations while ensuring total protection.

Features that make the difference:

• Dual-action safety: Combines CR and TE performance in one closure.

• Integrated tamper band: Breaks visibly upon first opening for instant proof of integrity.

• Torque-stop teeth: Prevents cap breakage and maintains consistent seal torque.

• No heat seal required: Saves time, energy, and equipment costs on the line.

The result: a closure system that satisfies regulators, production teams, and end consumers, without compromise.

PET Jars: Built Tough for Everyday Safety

MedLock’s PET Dried Flower & Concentrate Jars combine durability with certified child resistance. Each jar ships standard with a 52 mm Click-Lock™ CR/TE cap, offering one-step security for both flower and extract products.

Why LPs choose MedLock PET Jars:

• Tested and certified for child resistance under CPSC 16 CFR 1700.20.

• Shatter-resistant PET keeps products safe during handling and transport.

• FDA-grade, food-safe material preserves aroma, potency, and quality.

• Optional liners and foam inserts for additional moisture or odour control.

• Custom colours and direct printing for full regulatory and brand integration. 

These jars deliver the safety regulators demand and the shelf appeal customers remember.

Pop-Top Tubes: Affordable CR Protection for Pre-Rolls

Pre-rolls remain one of the fastest-growing cannabis product segments—and one of the most sensitive when it comes to safety. MedLock’s child-resistant Pop-Top Tubes make compliance effortless.

Available in multiple diameters and lengths, these tubes feature a squeeze-and-twist closure that’s easy for adults to open yet fully child-resistant. Constructed from high-impact polypropylene, they protect pre-rolls from crushing, moisture, and contamination.

Compliance and convenience in one package:

• Certified CR mechanism meeting ISO 8317 and U.S. CPSC standards.

• Durable polypropylene body prevents product damage.

• Biodegradable options available with FDA-compliant EcoPure® additive.

• Direct print customization - ditch labels for clean, compliant branding.

Whether you’re launching a new line or scaling an existing one, Pop-Top Tubes give LPs a safe, economical entry point into fully compliant packaging.

ClickDose™ Oral Syringes: Micro-Dosing with Safety

For liquid formulations and extracts, child resistance must extend beyond jars and tubes. The ClickDose™ Oral Syringe brings precision and protection together in one sleek design.

Each syringe delivers a click-stop at every 0.1 mL increment, ensuring precise dosing while including a frangible tamper-evident band that confirms package integrity. Constructed from medical-grade, inert plastics, ClickDose™ devices are safe, accurate, and compliant.
