The Technical Challenge

Uncured losses are chemistry problems, not marketing myths.

  • Volatile terpenes have Henry-law constants 10-100× higher than water; at 25 °C they begin to leave the headspace minutes after trimming.

  • Once water-activity (aw) drifts above 0.70, spoilage yeast & mold proliferate; below 0.60 all microbial growth ceases.

  • Plain LDPE or “turkey” bags exhibit O₂ transmission rates (OTR) > 450 cc m⁻² day⁻¹, enabling oxidative decarboxylation of THCA to THC and CBN.

Guard the Gland - Preserve the Terpene

Each trichome is a micro-capsule of flavor. Calyx Cure’s nine-layer film keeps water activity pinned at 0.60 ± 0.03 and bleeds off static charge, so the cuticle dome stays pressurized, intact, and loaded with terpenes—ready for peak aroma on opening day.

Ruptured trichomes release terpenes

Below 0.58 a₍w₎, moisture leaves the resin cavity faster than the waxy cuticle can contract. → Stress builds, the dome micro-cracks, and the head collapses. → Once ruptured, monoterpenes rush out up to 100× faster, flattening aroma in days. Calyx Cure’s moisture-buffer layer locks aw at 0.60 ± 0.02, keeping trichomes pressurized, intact, and terpene-rich.

Why Moisture Uptake Isn’t a Two-Way Street

Buds don’t re-absorb water along the same line they dried on—a gap called sorption hysteresis. That swing makes some flowers brittle, others soggy, and trichomes vulnerable. Calyx Cure’s moisture-buffer layer locks headspace at 0.60 a₍w₎, closing the gap so weight, mold risk, and terpene loss stay in check.

Enzymes Only Work in the Sweet-Spot

At 0.60 – 0.65 aW, natural plant enzymes keep humming—trimming chlorophyll, sugars, and harsh tannins so aroma swells and smoke turns silky. Dip below 0.60 aW and the reaction stalls, locking in grassy notes. CalyxCure holds the line.

Calyx Cure—Post-Harvest Problems, Solved

Calyx Cure’s 9-layer film locks at 0.60 ± 0.03, vents excess CO₂, blocks O₂, bleeds static, and shields trichomes. No burping, no packs, no mold, no terpene loss—just louder aroma and higher yield, every time.

What sets Calyx Cure apart

Calyx Cure

Maximize Yield, Minimize Shrinkage

Calyx Cure’s passive gas permeation technology optimizes moisture and oxygen balance, maximizing cannabinoid synthesis and weight retention while off-gassing excess H₂O, O₂, CO₂, and VOCs. Reduce shrinkage and increase your bottom line.

Flat-Bottom and Expanded Side-Gusset Design

Calyx Cure's flat-bottom, expanded side-gusset design maximizes surface area to support superior internal airflow and off-gassing—eliminating moisture pockets commonly found in stand-up pouches with pressed corners. This structure allows air to circulate freely and evenly around the contents, reducing hot spots, excess moisture, and uneven curing.

Established Headspace & Fill Line

Calyx Cure's flat-bottom, expanded side-gusset design maximizes surface area to support superior internal airflow and off-gassing—eliminating moisture pockets commonly found in stand-up pouches with pressed corners. This structure allows air to circulate freely and evenly around the contents, reducing hot spots, excess moisture, and uneven curing.

Pure, Clean, Consistent

MAP packaging made specifically for cannabis curing.

Precision-controlled oxygen exposure prevents mold and microbial growth while promoting proper chlorophyll breakdown. Get a smoother smoke and enhanced consumption experience without the need for burping or humidity packs.

Calyx Cure's selectively permeable (breathable) film regulates the rate at which moisture and gases escape, while accurately controlling oxygen entry through passive gas permeation. This creates the ideal internal environment for terpene preservation, cannabinoid synthesis, and mold prevention—all withoutmanual intervention.

This section allows you to give an in-depth explanation, including step-by-step guidance, specific product details, or policy clarifications, ensuring customers get a complete answer to their question without confusion.

Calyx Cure’s terp-resistant, anti-static film prevents terpene loss and trichome adhesion, keeping your resinous compounds on the bud, not the bag. Deliver a more potent, flavorful final product.

Calyx Cure’s custom film blend blocks UV rays to prevent cannabinoid degradation, while its transparent side-gussets provide visual assurance without sacrificing protection. An anti-static ionizing additive further protects trichomes from static buildup, preserving top-shelf quality andstructural integrity.

Every Calyx Cure pouch features a durable, tactile double-profile zipper for a reliable seal that prevents unwanted air exchange and moisture infiltration—protecting your product’s integrity. An extended header with dual tear-notches offers flexibility for multiple heat seals without damaging the pouch or compromising protection.
