THE CANNADOR® DEFINED A uniquely designed airtight humidification box for short and long-term storage, Cannador® preserves tobacco, teas, and spices by controlling humidity at the perfect rate to maintain freshness and taste. Glass jars and clear plastic containers let in UV light, which damages the contents. A dark and controlled humid environment is ideal, but it cannot be too humid. If it is more than 70% relative humidity (RH), your contents will run the risk of supporting mold growth, something a traditional cigar humidor has the potential to do. THE INTERIOR The interior is made of solid mahogany versus cedar. Mahogany better controls humidity and does not produce any residue or odors and oils that cedar imparts. It is also resistant to swelling and shrinking under changes in relative humidity providing stability for the long term. Your choice of exterior is either solid walnut or cherry. Humidity Bead System® We tested a variety of humidification options to maintain humidity levels including ceramics and sponges, but none were as reliable as the Humidity Bead System®. What makes the Humidity Bead System® special is its ability to control the environment by absorbing and releasing humidity as needed, so the RH will never go above or below a specific ratio. Sponges or ceramics don't control the humidity, but rather emit all of its moisture until it is depleted, leaving the environment too humid. If the environment is too humid, the risk of mold contamination will greatly increase. What we like most about the Humidity Bead System® is its sustainability. All you need to do is dip one-quarter of the bead case in water once a month, and your environment will stay at 65% RH. No packs, no waste. Corporate Social Responsibility: For every Cannador® sold, a tree will be planted through a partnership with Plant-It 2020.
