Some of the best ideas in human history were just too far ahead of their time, or too late to make an impact. But, once in a while, a great idea aligns with all the ideal conditions, including the perfect people to pull it off, and that is what we are seeing right now with ACTIVE and their latest launch of a lineup they call Singular.
The name may spin your brain into thoughts of a future technological singularity, full of rapid and unpredictable high tech advancements, and although the Singular vaping platform certainly qualifies as a high tech advancement, the significance of the name is really quite simple.
With Singular, ACTIVE now offers one device that can power pods uniquely optimized to deliver the best flavor and effects across all forms of cannabis extracts.
Think of it as the ‘USB-C moment’ for cannabis vapes. One plug, universal compatibility, better performance, less confusion. Ideal for brands, useful for consumers, helpful to retailers, and even more sustainable for the environment, Singular will be setting a standard that will benefit cannabis markets worldwide.
Yeah, yeah… you’ve heard it all before, right? Trust us when we say that although pod-based vaping has been around for close to a decade now, Singular is not just another pod system, but an adaptable and even cross-compatible platform that consolidates various extract delivery methods into one rechargeable and reusable system.
ACTIVE has integrated their award-winning, proven product-moving ACTIVE No-Burn Technology® into the Singular lineup, and will offer Singular pods in .5mL, 1.0mL, 2mL, 3mL, 4mL, and 5mL sizes. When paired with the Singular platform, Singular pods will deliver optimal tokes of everything from distillate to diamonds, live rosin to cured resin and everything in between, preserving flavor and hitting hard from the first to final puff with no clogs, no leaks, no “dry” hits, and no boofy burnt terps.
Perhaps the world’s first true “All-in-One” (AIO) cannabis vaping platform, Singular is driven by options in heating technology that utilize their Stainless Steel, Ceramic, and Postless heating ‘engines’, each tuned to the type of extract that the pod will be filled with.
In a cool twist, the platform even accepts traditional 510 threaded vape cartridges, easing the clear market transition away from carts and toward pods.
The Future of Consumer Friendly Cannabis Vaping is Now with Singular from ACTIVE
When it comes to cannabis vaporizer technology, the term “All-in-One” has been undermined to mean that the battery, heating element, and the cannabis extract were all sold and contained in one inseparable, non-rechargable, and highly wasteful unit.
With the launch of Singular, ACTIVE plans to re-define what it means to be an All-in-One product, allowing their hundreds of cannabis brand partners to truly offer ONE vaping platform that optimally delivers ALL forms of cannabis extracts.
Right now, AIOs hold about 45% of vape sales nationally, flipping the 80/20 cartridge dominance from just three years ago. But, due to the wasteful one-and-done mentality that makes AIOs so convenient, that growth has come with heavy costs – to consumers’ wallets, to brand flexibility, and to our environment.
Singular hits the scene right as the market looks for its next evolution: a reusable, interoperable, and sustainable answer to AIO fatigue. It’s not hype – it’s timing.
Let’s face it, the vape sector has been due for a shake-up. For years, brands and consumers have been choosing between expensive All-in-One disposables and a market full of incompatible pods and 510 carts. Customers are tired of paying for batteries they toss once a half gram cart runs dry, and maybe a bit embarrassed of that one drawer in their house that is full of misfit vape tech.
Brands are tired of juggling SKUs, fielding vendor/consumer headaches, and navigating compliance issues that can vary from state to state.
It is from this demand for something better, something more sustainable, and something more affordable that Singular has sprouted – a shift to a more sustainable modular vape platform years in the making and ready to meet the moment. Over the next few months, Singular will be available in more than 1000 stores across at least 11 markets.
How many lithium batteries will avoid the landfill due solely to Singular? Surely thousands within weeks of launch, and countless as we look toward the future. This matters in more ways than one. Right now local and state governments here in the US, and lawmakers around the world are starting to take notice of the extreme amount of tech waste being created by vaporizer products.
It is only a matter of time before entire communities or even countries ban single-use batteries for this use. That responsibility is not lost on the team at ACTIVE, and together with other leading industry players, launched VapeSAFER, “a coalition advocating sensible policy to protect the cannabis vaping category from shortsighted regulation..
Singular is the solution to the sustainability problem currently bubbling up in one of the most rapidly rising consumption categories across all regulated cannabis markets.
One Device to Rule Them All: Singular is the World’s First Truly Universal Vape Platform
Again, Singular isn’t just another pod launch; it’s a hardware reset and a mindset reset.
The system handles cartridges from 0.5ml up to 5ml and even includes an ingenious 510 adapter, bridging traditional hardware with modern design. That single seemingly-simple feature connects the past and future of vape tech, letting users keep what they already own while stepping into a smarter ecosystem.
Under the hood, the Singular platform supports multiple engines – Stainless Steel, Ceramic, and Postless – each tuned for different oils and viscosities. The result? Your brand will cross the finish line on top while the competition continues its race to the bottom.
Reusable by Design: Singular Delivers Lower Cost, Less Waste
AIOs have ruled because they are easy. Grab, rip, toss. But that convenience adds up. financially and environmentally. Every AIO means another lithium-ion battery in the trash and more money spent on hardware that’s half disposable from the start, instead of on the cannabis product itself.
If you own a brand, ask yourself: Did you get into business to sell batteries or weed?
Singular’s reusable battery model makes dollars and sense for everyone. The gap in the cost of bringing a product to market with a disposable battery versus a reusable Singular battery has closed dramatically, and is virtually offset when you consider the convenience of dealing with one manufacturer to service your entire lineup of varying extracts.
On the other side of the market, once the consumer owns the power unit, pods land at around $30 each instead of $40. They might pocket the savings, or they might buy more product.
That’s better margins for brands, lower costs for consumers, an easy sell for shops, and a big drop in waste.
It’s a rare win-win-win-win.
With Singular, ACTIVE Introduces Open-Source Thinking in a Closed-System Industry
These days, too many pod systems operate like Apple products with proprietary connections, limited flexibility, and planned obsolescence.
Singular is an open platform which invites collaboration instead of monopoly. Brands can design their own exclusive pods, or work with other farms or hashmakers to craft varietal flights of different flavors and effects, utilizing all forms of cannabis concentrates, but everything still clicks into the same Singular system. That means fewer compatibility issues and fewer customer frustrations, making space for further innovation.
Again, think of the USB-C revolution. Once everyone could plug into the same system, the whole industry accelerated. And that’s exactly what Singular enables. Singular-powered products will say so on the consumer-facing packaging and savvy wholesale and retail buyers will gravitate toward the brands utilizing the user-friendly tech.
“You see it across all sorts of mainstream industries, where the brands and companies that can adapt and evolve the fastest are the ones that thrive,” says Bill Levers of Beard Bros Pharms. “Well, cannabis evolves faster than all of them, and the vaping sector is moving at light speed now that Singular has hit the scene.”
Singular Regenerative Vape Platform: Built for Operators, Optimized For End Users
With Singular, ACTIVE is furthering their “Together We Rise” approach which has led to a client base of over 400 best-selling brands that have captured countless cannabis awards by using ACTIVE hardware.
A typical business strategy sesh at ACTIVE looks quite a bit different from most vape hardware providers, with a focus on providing real-world solutions to move markets forward, rather than fixing what isn’t even broken just to feign innovation.
At ACTIVE, they know that their success is a mirror reflection of their brand partners’ success, so that is what they keyed into as they finalized design on the Singular line.
- Sales and marketing teams get a product line that’s easier to explain and demo, leading to faster conversions, larger bulk orders, and stronger repeat business. The authentic selling points of reliability, ease of use, cross-compatibility, and sustainability will resonate with dispensary purchasing managers and retail customers alike. The reusable platform will keep custies coming back for more, leading to recurring wholesale business.
- In-house product teams will appreciate dealing with fewer SKUs and consistent performance across extracts. They will take pride in knowing that the high-quality product that they shipped out will be delivered properly and potently to the end user.
- The finance and ops departments will find value in the “one-stop-shop” convenience of working with ACTIVE and utilizing the Singular platform for product creation, leading to smoother logistics, fewer vendors, and less dead stock.
It’s not just better tech – it’s cleaner infrastructure. The kind that scales quietly in the background while everyone else scrambles to keep up.
Never satisfied with “good enough”, the modular design gives Singular-powered brands room to grow. Current tech add -on options include NFC pairing, voltage control, preheat functions, and haptic feedback. And that’s just the start. Backed by an ambitious roadmap, the platform is set to add innovations the ACTIVE team is even more excited about than what’s already in the market, all within the same customizable platform.
Singular is built to evolve, not expire.
Like you, we’ve seen plenty of “game-changers” come and go, but this one feels different.
Singular isn’t another gadget or gimmick – it’s in-demand infrastructure built for where the cannabis vape industry is actually going.
Beard Bros Pharms will be keeping a close eye on how fast brands begin to scale with Singular, but one thing is clear already: thanks to ACTIVE, the future of vape hardware just got a lot more regenerative.
