Calyx Pro 5lb - 5 Cases (500 bags)

9-layer MAP film. Passive off-gassing. No burping, no humidity packs. 500 bags per order.

Calyx Cure Pro 5 lb is a flat-bottom, side-gusset modified atmosphere pouch built on a proprietary 9-layer film that passively off-gasses CO₂, excess moisture, and VOCs — holding a stable internal microclimate through the full cure without burping or humidity packs. This case-quantity order supplies 5 cases of 100 bags each (500 bags total), sized for mid- to large-scale licensed cannabis and hemp operations.

What It Is: MAP Technology Engineered for Commercial Curing

The Calyx Cure Pro 5 lb pouch is built around a 9-layer modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) film. Each layer performs a specific function: an outer protection layer shields against scuffs and pinholes, a UV barrier blocks more than 95% of UV-A and UV-B radiation, a puncture-resistance layer disperses mechanical force, a high-density oxygen barrier slows O₂ ingress, and inner layers manage selective gas permeation — venting excess CO₂, moisture vapor, and VOCs while a terpene-resistant barrier captures evaporated terpene compounds and allows them to recondense back into the flower matrix.

The result is a self-regulating internal microclimate. Unlike passive poly bags or turkey bags that simply trap whatever atmosphere is present, the Calyx Cure film actively balances O₂ and H₂O vapor exchange throughout the cure window. Anti-static construction prevents trichome adhesion to the bag walls, protecting bag appeal and visual quality at packaging.

Who It's For: Mid-Scale Operators Running Structured Post-Harvest

The 5 lb format is the workhorse size for licensed cannabis and hemp operations that process multiple pounds per harvest room but haven't yet scaled into full 10 lb bulk batches. If your post-harvest team is currently burping turkey bags daily, rotating humidity packs, or running walk-in cure rooms with active humidification to compensate for inconsistent bag performance, the Calyx Cure Pro replaces all of that with a sealed, passive system that requires no daily intervention.

The 5-case (500-bag) order quantity is structured for operations that want consistent supply on hand across multiple harvest cycles — enough volume to run a full cure rotation without reordering between harvests. Craft-to-commercial cultivators, MSO facility managers, and post-harvest leads sourcing for state-licensed operations will find the 5 lb format maps cleanly to individual-batch curing without the complexity of managing larger bulk pouches.

Key Features: Seal, Fill, Cure — No Daily Management Required

The flat-bottom, side-gusset construction stands upright for organized cure-room storage and eliminates the moisture pockets common in stand-up pouches with pressed corners. Internal airflow is unrestricted around the flower mass, reducing hot spots and uneven cure. Fill to 75–90% capacity at approximately 0.55–0.65 aw (10–12% moisture content) before sealing.

Closure is handled by a dual-track zipper with a firm tactile snap, plus a multi-position heat seal at the top tear notch for maximum atmosphere lock. A secondary tear notch allows re-sealing if the bag is accessed mid-cure — heat seal again, and the MAP system re-establishes. UV-blocking clear inspection windows let your team check flower progress without opening the bag. Recommended cure environment is 60–65°F at 55–60% RH; the bag handles the atmospheric regulation within that envelope for 2–8 weeks with no burping or humidity pack additions.

Third-party testing by the Cannabis Research Coalition (CRC) in an 8-week study at 60°F/60% RH confirmed that Calyx Cure outperformed competing curing formats on weight retention, terpene preservation (including key monoterpenes such as limonene), and cannabinoid conversion consistency. Turgor preservation in the film structure specifically counters cellular wall collapse — the primary driver of cure-related weight loss.

How It Fits a Commercial Post-Harvest Build

Calyx Cure Pro bags are designed to carry product from dry room through the cure window and into pre-packaging holding — all in the same vessel. Because the internal microclimate is self-regulating, flower can be moved from the cure room to a warehouse storage environment without repackaging or concern about terpene drift from ambient humidity swings.

For operations standardizing post-harvest SOPs, the Calyx Cure Pro provides a repeatable, measurable input: fill to the same aw, seal, cure for the same window, and get consistent moisture and terpene profiles batch to batch. That predictability simplifies QC workflows, reduces variation in lab test results across harvests, and supports premium-tier shelf positioning by maintaining aroma integrity from seal to sale. The 500-bag case quantity through HSC is appropriate for operations running multiple rooms or strains simultaneously through a structured rotation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What water activity and moisture content should flower be at before going into the bag?

Calyx recommends bringing flower to approximately 0.55–0.65 aw (10–12% moisture content) before sealing. Filling at the right aw is critical — too wet and the film's passive permeation system is overwhelmed; too dry and there is not enough moisture in the headspace for the microclimate to stabilize correctly.

Do I still need humidity packs or a burping schedule?

No. The 9-layer MAP film passively vents excess CO₂, moisture, and VOCs while the terpene-barrier layers recapture evaporated volatiles. There is no burping schedule and no need for supplemental humidity packs — the bag manages the internal atmosphere through the full cure window.

Can the bag be resealed if I need to access the flower mid-cure?

Yes. The dual-track zipper provides re-closeable access, and a secondary heat-seal notch allows you to re-purge the headspace and apply a fresh heat seal after access. For long-term re-storage after partial use, heat-sealing again after closing the zipper maintains the modified atmosphere.

How do I check cure progress without opening the bag?

The Calyx Cure Pro includes UV-blocking clear inspection windows that let you visually assess flower condition — color, structure, apparent moisture — without breaking the seal and disrupting the internal environment.

Why order 5 cases (500 bags) at this quantity?

The 5-case format is structured for licensed operations running multiple harvests, multiple strains, or multiple cure rooms simultaneously. Having 500 bags on hand eliminates reorder gaps between harvest cycles and allows you to standardize your SOP across the full rotation without substituting bag formats mid-cycle.
