What is silicone, and why is it used in the cannabis industry?
Silicone, especially food-grade or medical-grade silicone, is a silicon-derived material highly valued in the cannabis industry for its heat resistance, flexibility, durability, and non-stick properties. These attributes make it perfect for working with concentrates and resin extractions, as it prevents material loss and makes handling easier without sticking.
Furthermore, it's an inert material, so it doesn't alter the flavor or contaminate the products it contains, making it ideal for the most demanding consumers. It's also very easy to wash, and its wear resistance makes it a sustainable and very practical option, especially if you enjoy your concentrates on the go.
Silicone jars: loss-free storage
Silicone jars are one of the most practical accessories for storing extracts like BHO, Rosin, Wax, or Shatter. Their non-stick surface prevents concentrates from sticking, allowing for full utilization of the contents. Plus, their airtight seal and shock resistance make them the ideal container for both home and safe transportation of your extracts.
At Alchimia, you'll find models in different capacities, colors, and shapes. Choose the one that best suits your style and needs!
Silicone mats: keep your workspace clean and safe
Silicone mats are designed to provide a non-slip, heat-resistant surface, ideal for handling concentrates without dirtying your table or losing product. They're perfect for dabbing sessions, extracting, or simply preparing your mixes comfortably and cleanly.
Thanks to their non-stick surface, the mats can also be used as a rest for hot tools, ensuring a safe working environment. They're also very easy to clean with isopropyl alcohol.
Silicone bongs and mouthpieces: flexible and break-free consumption
More and more people are choosing silicone bongs for their unique features, such as durability, lightness, and portability. These bongs are ideal for traveling or outdoor use, as they withstand drops without breaking and are very easy to disassemble and clean.
There are also silicone mouthpieces compatible with vaporizers, cigarettes, or glass bongs. These mouthpieces are hygienic, washable, and reusable —an excellent solution for sharing your favorite flowers or concentrates without sacrificing safety or comfort.
