Presented during the recent FSEA’s 33rd Annual Gold Leaf Awards, one of the print and packaging industry’s premier competitions, the honors were selected from more than 450 entries submitted from around the world.
Treeform received a Gold Award for Best Use of Foil/Embossing – Folding Carton for its Kingpen vape and vape cartridge packaging. The project was recognized for translating the brand into a premium retail experience through creative foil and embossing techniques that strengthen shelf presence while remaining true to the product.

The combination of materials and specialty finishing demonstrates how thoughtful packaging design creates a tactile consumer experience that reinforces premium product positioning.
As cannabis brands continue investing in premium retail experiences, packaging has evolved from a protective necessity into one of the industry’s most influential brand-building tools. More than simply containing a product, packaging shapes first impressions, reinforces quality and creates meaningful connections between brands and consumers before a product is ever opened.
Treeform also received an an Award of Distinction in Technical Packaging during the 2026 PAC Global Awards for the Good Day FarmLouisiana vape box.
Every package is the first conversation a brand has with its customers and often the first opportunity to earn their trust. Great packaging starts the conversation, earns consumer trust, and delivers an experience worthy of the product inside.
