New Technology: Quartz Cartridges
Same oil, better flavor, and happier customers.
Quartz atomizer cartridges are the next step in the evolution of the Vape Cartridge. Quartz is a dense crystalline mineral, sometimes referred to as quartz glass, that is inherently efficient at conducting heat energy.
The Evolution of Material
When compared to ceramic, which the majority of traditional cartridges use as an atomizer, quartz heats up more evenly with less energy due to natural material differences. The even heated surface of quartz creates a truer flavored vapor.
The simplest comparison analogy is your everyday coffee cup. Coffee cups are largely ceramic because ceramic is a natural insulator—great for holding heat in, but poor for conducting it quickly. When used as a heating element, this insulation leads to uneven temperature surfaces, resulting in micro-burns and inconsistent vaporization.
The dabbing community moved from titanium to ceramic and finally settled on Quartz over 5 years ago for superior flavor. It's time for the cartridge category to catch up.
Why are Quartz Cartridges Gaining Popularity?
Shelf space is limited, and competition is rising. Not only does quartz produce better flavor with the same oil, but it also acts as a market separator.
Have you ever noticed how ceramic atomizer cartridges taste different at the tail end compared to the beginning? This is due to the stress of repeated expansion and contraction. Quartz, being more dense and durable, withstands this process superiorly, allowing for the same great vapor from the first puff to the last.
Energy Efficiency
Quartz's uniform porosity allows for superior heat conduction, retaining more heat with less energy input. This means the battery doesn't have to work as hard, preserving battery life and allowing for lower voltage settings.
Quartz as a Material
Quartz is one of the most abundant minerals found on Earth. Its crystalline structure means pores are all the same shape and size. This structural layout causes its superior conduction of energy and maintains even heat throughout with very little energy input.
Favor the Flavor
Bear Rootz conducted several tests, including a "Blind Taste Challenge" at MJBizCon 2022. After polling over 380 people, 83% chose Quartz as producing the better flavor.
Terpenes are very sensitive to heat. Many burn at higher temperatures, leaving an undesirable taste. Quartz's superior conductivity allows it to heat up faster and more evenly at lower temperatures, preserving the integrity of these delicate compounds.
Patented Quartz Technology
Bear Rootz utilizes patented quartz atomizer technology to deliver uncompromising flavor and safety in every cartridge. The goal was clear:
"Find a material that has less leaching potential and that can be used for a prolonged period of time with no other adverse effects."
With this patented microporous technology, processors can use a single cartridge style for many oil types, eliminating the need to carry several cartridges adjusted to various viscosities.
