WeedMD (WMD.V) entered into a supply agreement with oil concentration devices manufacturer Pax Labs today to become a brand partner and supplier for the PAX ERA Collection in Canada, according to a press release.

The partnership will push ahead the company’s cannabis 2.0 product strategy by helping them expand into new formats using its low-cost biomass. They will produce cannabis oil pods for the ‘pen-and-pod’ vaporizer devices at the company’s extraction hub in Aylmer, Ontario, selling Color Cannabis, and Starseed Medicinal-branded oil pods through nationwide supply agreements with retailers and its online store.

“As we continue to enhance and expand our new cannabis formats and brand reach for Color and Starseed, we’re proud to partner with PAX, and we are looking forward to adding its line up to our growing portfolio of 2.0 brands. PAX is widely known as a premier innovator in cannabis product vaporizers. With its award-winning brand appeal and consumer-favoured hardware offerings, PAX is perfectly suited to be paired with WeedMD’s quality-produced, terpene-rich cannabis concentrates,” said Angelo Tsebelis, CEO of WeedMD.

PAX Era Pods are dependable, resistant to leakage and clog-free. They’ve sold over two-million devices worldwide and have established a reputation as the best-selling pod-and-pen product in the United States.

“PAX is thrilled to welcome WeedMD, a leader in the medical cannabis channel in Canada, to our Canadian Brand Partner family. WeedMD has a record of delivering high-quality, novel products to patients and consumers in varied consumption methods. We look forward to growing together across all channels, rooted in our shared rigor in quality, innovation, and access to information, to bring these products to medical and adult-use consumers across the country,” said Tim Pellerin, general manager, Canada and international at PAX Labs.
