What's in a Halara vape cartridge?+
Nothing artificial. Our Naturally Smooth line contains cannabis-derived distillate with natural terpenes. Our Resin Sauce line is whole plant extract — flower in a cart.

What hardware does Halara use?+
We exclusively use glass cartridges with medical-grade stainless steel and ceramic heating elements. Most other brands use plastic cartridges where microplastics can leach into the oil. We avoid this entirely. Unlike brands using polycarbonate plastic where microplastics can leach into heated oil, Halara's glass-and-ceramic construction ensures nothing artificial touches the product.
