Vaporizer Cartridge Innovator O.penVAPE Extends Product Offerings

CannaInsider’s Matthew Kind interviewed one of the cannabis industry’s leading entrepreneurs, Ralph Morgan, CEO of O.penVAPE.  Morgan, who used to sell joints (knees and hips) before building an empire that sells vaporizers and cartridges, launched the company in Colorado in 2012 and now operates in nine states.

Morgan explained why vaporization is gaining share so rapidly, with concentrates representing about 42% of the market. He described the evolution of the company’s products, which were originally sold with an excipient exclusively, to a majority no longer including it.  Instead, the company’s licensing partner purifies during the exaction process and follows with the reintroduction of terpenes. The company launched a dry herb vaporizer earlier this year with Ziggy Marley, and Morgan says that the company is working on incorporating other botanicals, like chamomile, into its cannabis products.
