Here’s how to open Calyx Dram - Pinch. Pop. Pull.
- Pinch Find the two clearly marked PINCH notches on the Dram base. These are your guide points — designed for grip and leverage. Squeeze both notches simultaneously using your thumb and forefinger.
- Pop With your other hand, grip the opposite two sides of the lid — not the base. This helps apply even upward pressure while the seal begins to release. You may hear a slight pop as the gasket disengages — that’s the sound of a proper seal doing its job.
- Pull the lid straight up to remove. No twisting, no extra steps. You now have full access to the product inside.
Thanks to our patented gasket-seal technology, every closure provides a consistent, airtight lock—protecting product integrity, aroma, and moisture content while offering a premium unboxing experience.
Note: The intuitive opening is also designed with accessibility in mind, making it easier for users with dexterity limitations while still meeting all CR certification requirements.
Opening the Calyx Dram is a three-step process—quick, intuitive, and designed with accessibility in mind.
What Is the Calyx Dram?
The Calyx Dram is a patented, square-shaped, child-resistant container designed to store cannabis flower, infused edibles, and other products with precision and care. With sustainability, compliance, and user experience at the forefront, it delivers both function and form for operators and consumers alike.
More than just a container, the Calyx Dram is the result of years of material science and cannabis packaging expertise. From its stackable shape and customizable branding surfaces to its airtight seal and innovative opening mechanism, it’s built for performance from seed to sale.
Why This Matters for Cannabis Packaging
In cannabis packaging, ease of use and product protection are equally important. Traditional pop-tops and screw-top containers often sacrifice one for the other. The Calyx Dram was engineered to meet both needs — and then some.
Key Benefits of the Calyx Dram:
- CR-Certified: Meets rigorous child-resistant standards across all legal markets
- Airtight Gasket Seal: Keeps flower fresh by reducing oxygen exchange and terpene degradation—and offers enhanced protection for edibles from oxidation and spoilage
- UV Protection: All Calyx Drams are manufactured with a UV-blocking additive to reduce light degradation and protect product integrity; opaque options offer additional light shielding
- 100% Recyclable: Calyx Drams are 100% recyclable to support sustainable practices while providing operational efficiency
- Brand-Ready Design: Features a clean, flat lid and unique square silhouette perfect for labeling, stacking, and maximizing shelf appeal
- Versatile Storage: Ideal for flower, gummies, lozenges, capsules, and more—suitable across the cannabis supply chain from prepack to retail
- Made in the USA: Domestically manufactured to ensure fast lead times, eliminate import delays, and avoid international tariffs
