As the cannabis industry rapidly expands, the pressure on businesses to meet production demands while navigating ever-evolving packaging laws is intensifying. Whether it’s cannabis oils, edibles, or flower, the need for automation solutions that ensure efficiency, precision, and compliance is more crucial than ever. With the right systems in place, you can streamline your cannabis packaging processes and stay ahead of the curve—especially when it comes to packaging laws and regulations.
The Challenge: Meeting Demands Without Compromising Compliance
In the constantly evolving cannabis industry, manufacturers must keep up with growing demand while adhering to strict packaging laws, which can vary from state to state. These challenges require robust automation systems that can:
- Maintain high throughput rates to meet growing demand
- Ensure compliance with complex and ever-changing packaging regulations
- Adapt to new products, packaging formats, and labeling requirements
Unfortunately, many cannabis manufacturers struggle with rigid automation systems that are not tailored to their specific needs. That’s where MFT Automation comes in—offering solutions designed to optimize your cannabis packaging, ensuring compliance without sacrificing operational efficiency.

3. Tracking, Anti-Tamper, and Tax Stamping for Controlled Substances
For cannabis manufacturers who need to track products for regulatory compliance, MFT’s Track & Trace, Anti-Tamper, and Tax Stamp Systems are a game-changer. Tax stamps, which serve as both a proof of tax payment and an anti-tampering seal, are critical for cannabis packaging. These stamps use advanced technologies such as embedded serial numbers, security inks, holograms, and track-and-trace capabilities to ensure product authenticity and prevent counterfeiting.
MFT’s system integrates seamlessly into your automated production lines, allowing cannabis producers to apply tax stamps efficiently while maintaining full traceability from production to retail. Whether you need offset, intaglio, or inkjet printing for tax stamps, MFT provides the technology and expertise to meet your unique regulatory and security requirements.
