Kurvana Capitalizes On Vape Pen Trends

The vape pen category has shown enormous growth in the cannabis industry, but not all vapes are created equal. Consumers are also beginning to show a preference in their purchasing habits when it comes to vapes as well. Kurvana has kept an eye on these trends and has managed to make a product to satisfy multiple consumers.

Cowen & Co.’s senior analyst Vivien Azer wrote that vape pens have grown their dollar share from 5.8% of the market in January 2016 to 14.7% in May 2018. Vapes have become the number two form factor in the cannabis industry trailing flower which commands a robust 52% of the market. However, flower sales have been losing ground to the vape pen sales.

Azer also determined that pricing varies for vape pens according to the market. For example, a vape pen in Washington state averages $26.31, while in Nevada that number jumps to $49.14. Consumers are also demanding to know more about their vape pens as the market gets flooded with products from dubious sources. Some companies buy their hardware from China from the same manufacturers that make e-cigarettes, but tobacco oil is thinner than cannabis oil, so additives are introduced in order to use the hardware.

Kurvana sources only the highest quality raw flower from organically grown cannabis, provided by trusted farmers well-known to the industry. Kurvana uses a proprietary 50-step process to purify the essential cannabinoids, tasty terpenes, and natural ingredients that contribute to the unique experience of vaping with full spectrum Kurvana oil. They never introduce extra terpenes or additives of any kind, because they distract from the plant’s original essence.

Consumers are also leaning more towards mood based vape pens versus strain based. Kurvana has captured both sides of this market. The ASCND pens offer 10 different strains that are clearly marked as to whether it is indica, sativa or a hybrid. Then the company’s website breaks it down even further into an easy to follow chart so that consumers can locate the symptom they want to address and find the pen to best address it.

The products are only available in California at this time, but with this is a high potency, attractive pen with a great taste that consumers will want to find.
