GROWTH
From a stack of prints to a real brand.
Orders moved from friends to strangers, then from strangers to dispensaries. We added the Joint Flask, the Happy Packing Tin, and a fleet of 3D printers running around the clock. The BudBud was now an international brand.
TODAY
Same $4.20. Built better than ever.
We 3D-printed every BudBud for almost three years. Tens of thousands of smoking companions, one print at a time. By upgrading our production to make a smoother, more durable, and easier-to-clean tool, we now bring smiles nationwide and to over a dozen countries. And it’s still just getting better and better.
What We Stand For
Function-Driven Form
We start with how it works, then make it something you're proud to hold. Great design isn't decoration, it's what happens when function is done right.
Makers at Heart
Born from a college 3D printer and built up tool by tool. We stay makers at heart, always open to new ideas and willing to rework what we've got when a better one comes along.
Designed, Not Imitated
Every product starts with a real problem and a sketch, not a knockoff. Patent-pending design born from obsessive iteration.
Do Right by People
We treat customers, partners, and budtenders the way we'd want to be treated. Fair dealings, safe products, and zero shortcuts.
The Founders
Andrew and Xander met in college working at URI's Innovation Lab, helping student founders turn ideas into businesses. Andrew had been prototyping the BudBud on the side. Once it was ready to be more than a side project, he brought it to Xander. Co-founder confirmed. The brand was on.
