Puffco entered the market in 2013. At the time, wicks, glues, and plastics dominated the vaporizer marketplace. The market for all of the different ways to consume cannabis has, obviously, drastically expanded since then as laws have changed and more than half the country has access to legal cannabis in some form or another. Still, Puffco’s products stand out. And the company is fully transparent on how.
On the Puffco site, the company’s patents are clearly listed and linked to. The transparent comprehensive safety and material testing Puffco lists is extensive: batteries that meet international safety standards, drop testing, energy efficiency standards, materials that pass the same tests as medical devices. The material biocompatibility standards alone bring the company to the forefront when compared to the loads of questionable, quickly made vaporizers that flood the market.
