Artrix, a leading brand in cannabis vaporization technology, announces the launch of its new high-conductivity ceramic vape hardware series — the Lilcube postless disposable line. Designed to meet the demands of consumers seeking high-quality vaping experiences, this series enhances both safety and performance. The Lilcube series caters to premium concentrates such as Live Resin and Live Rosin, offering two device options: the Lilcube and the Lilcube Pro with a display screen for more precise control and upgraded capacity. The innovative series helps cannabis brands optimize performance, meet the evolving consumer demands, and expand their market reach.

Currently, ceramic heating technology has become the mainstream choice for cannabis vaporization. With the ongoing development of cannabis consumption, an increasing number of consumers are turning to premium, natural cannabis concentrates. However, traditional vaporizer devices often struggle to effectively vaporize thicker concentrates like live rosin and liquid diamond, which are rich in terpenes and other essential aromatic compounds. This technology limitation hinders product compatibility and restricts brands from further expanding into the high-end market.

“We continuously receive feedback from cannabis professionals who are seeking a professional device specifically designed for high-end concentrates, but they face challenges with traditional suppliers,” says Taric Lee, Chief Product Officer at Artrix. 

“Traditional ceramic heating technologies still have significant room for improvement in terms of ceramic material ratios, micro-hole structure, and heating element design.

“Cannabis companies should be able to utilize the exact hardware they need to deliver the most authentic taste and purest aroma, whether they are using live rosin or distillate.”

Empowering Innovation for High-End Vaping Experiences

To better support cannabis brands in exploring the high-end market, Artrix leverages over ten years of expertise in ceramic heating technology and professional knowledge to upgrade its vaporization technology. The newly developed generation of high-conductivity heating element offers a threefold optimization: “high oil conductivity, high heat conductivity, and high vaporizing efficiency,” significantly improving compatibility with a wider range of cannabis extracts while greatly enhancing flavor purity and efficiency.

The Lilcube series features newly developed high-conductivity ceramic heating cores, which improve the product’s compatibility with various cannabis concentrates. Whether it’s traditional distillate, live resin, liquid diamond, or thicker extracts like live rosin, Lilcube ensures stable and efficient atomization output. Additionally, the postless design reduces metal contact risk while allowing consumers to visually monitor the quality and changes of their cannabis concentrate. This design is intended to provide a purer, safer vaping experience.

The Lilcube series not only brings a comprehensive innovation in vaporization technology but also introduces various product design and functional advancements.

The Lilcube, a youthful and lightweight disposable vape, offers 0.5mL and 1.0mL capacity options and weighs just 21.3g—about the weight of a single AA battery, making it highly portable. Unlike the mainstream pen-style or flat-shaped devices on the market, Lilcube features a simple, playful, and unique box shape that resonates with Gen Z and younger audiences.

The upgraded Lilcube Pro offers 1.0mL and 2.0mL capacities, meeting the needs of high-frequency users who seek longer battery life and better cost-efficiency. The added digital display shows battery levels and temperature, enabling users to better control the vaping experience and enhancing the overall ease of use.

The Lilcube high-conductivity ceramic vape series is now available on the Artrix website, with brand customization options, including shell color combinations, finishings, and logo customization, helping clients build differentiated market competitiveness.

The Florida House of Representatives has unanimously approved a bill that would exempt military veterans from state registration fees for medical marijuana cards, allowing them to obtain the certifications for free.

After moving through committee earlier this month, the full chamber passed the legislation from Rep. Alex Andrade (R) in a 110-0 vote on Friday.

As originally filed, the measure would have made more significant changes to the state’s existing medical cannabis program, for example allowing home cultivation as well as reciprocity for out-of-state patients. But the House Health Professions and Programs Subcommittee replaced its language with a two-page substitute that instead would make only small changes to the medical program.

First, it would change how often patients need to renew their medical marijuana cards, from the current annual process to once every two years.

Second, it would waive the $75 registration and renewal fees for veterans, specifying that the state “may not charge a fee for the issuance, replacement, or renewal of an identification card for a qualified patient who is a veteran.”

On the floor, Rep. Daryl Campbell (D) thanked the sponsor for introducing the reform measure, saying “our veterans need medical marijuana cards often at rates higher than the general population, and it’s great that you are helping to ease the financial burden for them on this bill.”

He added that the legislation “reduces the red tape, and it also ensures that people can spend more time benefiting from medical marijuana, instead of navigating complicated procedures to access this.”

If HB 555 becomes law, the changes would take effect July 1.

The Senate this month also passed a bill that would restrict hemp-derived THC products, including popular THC-infused beverages.

Among other changes, that proposal would forbid any amount of synthetic cannabinoids, including delta-8 THC. The amount of delta-9 THC in hemp-derived products, meanwhile, couldn’t be more than five milligrams per serving or 50 milligrams per container.

Also in the Senate this month, the chamber passed a wide-ranging agricultural bill that contains provisions to outlaw fungal spores that produce mushrooms containing psilocybin or psilocin. The vote came a day after a House committee advanced a companion bill in that chamber.

Rhode Island Lawmakers Take Up Bill To Require Healthcare Facilities To Allow Medical Marijuana Use By Terminally Ill Patients

[PRESS RELEASE] – CALGARY, Alberta, April 28, 2025 – High Tide Inc., the high-impact, retail-forward enterprise built to deliver real-world value across every component of cannabis, announced that it generated CAD $6.8 million in total retail sales from April 17-20. The gross revenues were across all retail platforms, representing a 10% increase from the same timeframe in the previous week.

4/20 Giveaway

This year, Canna Cabana launched its largest ever 4/20 customer appreciation giveaway, with $100,000 CAD awarded to the grand prize winner. The contest ran from March 1 to April 20, with entries closing on 4/20 at 4:20 p.m.

In light of recent events, and as a proud Canadian company with more than 1.8 million Cabana Club members across Canada, the company decided to change this year’s annual 4/20 giveaway to feature a cash grand prize, instead of offering the winner a Tesla Model Y as in previous years.

The company is pleased to share that the winner of this year’s contest is an ELITE member from Winnipeg, Manitoba—following on the heels of winners in Ontario and Alberta from previous years.

“This past 4/20 long weekend, we were thrilled to see strong and accelerating sales momentum across all of High Tide’s retail channels,” High Tide founder and CEO Raj Grover said. “Our customer-first strategy is proving to be a winning formula, helping to position Canna Cabana as the go-to retail brand for cannabis enthusiasts nationwide. It’s clear that our unique retail model, paired with unmatched value and loyalty offerings, continues to set High Tide apart from the pack.

“I’m also proud to share that over 1.8 million Canadians are now part of our Cabana Club community, with ELITE memberships expanding at their fastest pace ever. As always, our annual 4/20 giveaway was open to all legal-age Canadians, and this year’s $100,000 cash prize winner was once again an ELITE member. This is a testament to the deep engagement we’re building through our loyalty program. Giving back to our customers will always be at the core of what we do, and we’re committed to constantly raising the bar for value, service and experience in cannabis retail.”

Employee Stock Options Grant

In addition, High Tide announces the grant of 136,000 incentive stock options to various employees, consultants and management of the company. Each option is exercisable at the closing price of the company’s common shares listed on the TSX Venture Exchange based on the last trading day immediately prior to this press release, expires three years from the date of grant, and vests over a two-year period. Each option is exercisable to purchase one common share of the company and is being issued pursuant to the terms of the company’s omnibus plan, which became effective on June 2, 2022.
