From Nature to Innovation: The History of Smell-Proof Bags

Many drugs, herbs and food products need to be kept in odor-proof packaging to maintain their quality, potency or flavor. Smell proof bags are a popular choice for transporting these items.

While odor-eliminating containers can prevent contamination, they are often spotted or awkward to carry around. They also raise suspicion and can draw unwanted attention.

History of Smell-Proof Bags

Since recreational and medical marijuana are legalized in more states, many people use smell-proof bags to conceal their stash. The Smell proof bags are a great alternative to mason jars and vacuum-sealed plastic containers. They also offer privacy to users and prevent them from being harassed by law enforcement when transporting their marijuana.

A drug dog expert recently performed an experiment to test the effectiveness of odor-proof bags. He placed marijuana inside the bag and walked the drug dog around the car. The drug dog did not detect the scent of marijuana inside the odor-proof bag, so the expert concluded that the odor-proof bags are effective.

The odor-eliminating carbon layer in Packs Protect bags is embedded in the fabric of each bag. This thick layer entraps and retains any odors and prevents them from escaping. It’s important to note that activated carbon only has a limited amount of odor-retaining capability. When the odor-eliminating carbon becomes saturated, it can be reactivated by turning the bag inside out and placing it in the dryer for about 10 minutes.

Materials

When designing a product that stands out from the competition, it’s important for brands to focus on all five senses. That means including odor-resistant packaging as part of the design process.

Unlike traditional rigid containers, smell-proof bags are flexible and can be constructed with various materials to achieve the desired odor resistance standard. These bags are often used for odor-sensitive products like food or cannabis.

In order to function effectively, smell-proof bags need to have a complex layering system that prevents odors from permeating through the outer layer and into the bag’s contents. Most smell proof bags use a carbon liner between the bag’s interior and exterior layers to trap any unwanted odors.

Design

It’s easy to see why smell-proof bags are a smart investment for anyone who wants to keep their marijuana, tobacco or cannabis products discreet. Unlike glass containers and mason jars, which are easily spotted and can raise questions from nosy people, smell proof weed bags are small, compact and come in designs that look like regular backpacks, purses or pouches.

The magic happens in a smell proof bag in the form of a layer of premium activated carbon embedded fabric that traps odors, keeping them locked inside and away from nosey eyes. Some smell proof weed bags also feature internal pouches, allowing users to compartmentalize their weed or herbs, further enhancing privacy and discretion.

The airtight seal and insulated layers that prevent smell leakage also offer additional protection from moisture, light and other elements, helping products stay fresh and intact for longer periods of time. This is another key selling point for cannabis, herbal supplements and specialty food manufacturers who want to keep their products safe from harm while on the go.

Function

Unlike traditional plastic bags that allow for the escape of smelly contents, smell-proof bags have special layers or filters that keep scents locked in. This makes them ideal for transporting goods like foods, cigarettes, and medical marijuana.

The most important layer of a smell-proof bag is made from activated carbon felt. This is the same material that is found in air purifiers and air conditioning filters to help reduce odors and absorb bacteria.

In addition to this, many of the smell proof bags we sell feature a light and oxygen protection barrier. This is important because prolonged exposure to UV rays can cause cannabis flowers and edibles to lose their potency, so protecting them from light and oxygen is vital.

These odor-proof bags are also perfect for travel and are ideal to carry along when you’re using a bong, dab rig, or vaporizer. One of our experts even put weed into one of these bags and then brought it into his car where he ran a drug dog around it, and the dog did not signal for the presence of drugs inside.
