Sharing a smoke session with your friends is fun, but worrying about getting sick takes away from the enjoyment.
Moose Labs saw this issue and decided to fix it with innovative accessories that focus on health and safety.
Who is Moose Labs and How Did They Get Started?
For brothers Jay Rush and Dan Rush, their entrepreneurial journey began in Massachusetts around 2013 as “420 Stands” where they were 3D printing unique stands for organizing bongs and accessories.
It wasn’t until 2014 when they attended the Cannabis Cup, an event for cannabis enthusiasts, that they witnessed the unthinkable which would dramatically change the direction of their company.
Thousands of people were lined up at booths testing out the latest strains from cannabis growers and one booth announced that they had given out over 10,000 hits.
At first, Jay and Dan were amazed but what started as what seemed to be an accomplishment turned into disgust.
The thought of 10,000 people all putting their mouths on the same bong raised major health concerns and the Rush Brothers decided they needed to take steps to solve this problem.
By 2015, Moose Labs was launched in Los Angeles, California (named after their family dog, Moose) with the mission to solve the unsanitary aspects of cannabis smoking.
The Evolution of Moose Labs
The MouthPeace was their first attempt at tackling this problem and it was such a hit that they sold over 75,000 units in the first year.
It was a huge success but after a few years, the sales started to slow down.
It wouldn’t be until someone approached them at a trade show with the idea that they should add a filter to their flagship product that the brand would start to take off.
While it took over 16 months of R&D, Jay and Dan eventually launched their newest design of the MouthPeace + Filter which has helped them become one of the most successful products of all time.
Now the Moose Labs brand has multiple variations of its original MouthPeace; the MouthPeace (original), MouthPeace Mini, and MouthPeace Micro.
The Original MouthPeace
Made of platinum-cured silicone, the Original MouthPeace is a device that fits nearly all pipes and bongs.
It comes in 9 different colors and is shipped with 3 carbon filters to get you started.
The cost is just $9.99.
MouthPeace Mini
For those who prefer smoking joints, blunts, and pre-rolls the MouthPeace Mini is your perfect companion.
For $9.99 you get 2 Minis and 6 carbon filters.
MouthPeace Micro
The MouthPeace Micro also comes in 9 colors and is perfect for those pipes, dab rigs, and bongs that have smaller than usual openings at the mouthpiece.
For $9.99 you get (1) MouthPeace Micro and 4 carbon filters.
Replacement Carbon Filters
Each MouthPeace version has a unique filter size.
All of them come in packs of 10 filters which should last about 50 hits each.
There are two specific types of filters they have created; a corn filter and a carbon filter.
The Impact of Moose Labs On The Industry
The Moose Labs MouthPeace has made a huge impact on the cannabis industry by opening the eyes of cannabis enthusiasts to how sanitation affects their experience.
In their Bacteria Study, They point out the excessive and harmful amount of germs that are passed when you are sharing your bongs, joints, and blunts with other people.
It is quite an eye-opening study and I encourage you all to check it out.
