The 2019 EVALI outbreak — caused by Vitamin E acetate in unregulated vape products — put vape safety at the forefront of consumer awareness. Legal market products from licensed brands are tested to prevent this. But not all vape products are equal.
Five Safety Checks Before Buying Any Cannabis Vape
1. Residual solvents test
The batch COA must include residual solvent testing showing levels below state safety thresholds. No solvent test = do not buy.
2. Cannabis-derived terpenes (CDT)
CDT are extracted from real cannabis. Artificial or botanical terpenes are cheaper additives. West Coast Treez uses cannabis-derived terpenes at 1.8–3.5% in all cartridges.
3. CCELL ceramic core hardware
CCELL is the industry standard for safety and consistency. West Coast Treez uses CCELL with glass reservoirs and medical-grade stainless steel mouthpieces.
4. State licensing
Every legal vape has a state UID tracking number. Black market vapes have none.
5. Full COA including safety panels
Cannabinoid potency, terpene profile, residual solvents, pesticides, heavy metals and microbials — all published via QR code on every West Coast Treez product. Browse the vape range at westcoasttreez.us/vapes.
