Cannabis Storage Company Wins CES Award, Is Banned From Mentioning Cannabis

CES

Stick that in your pipe and smoke it.

Keep Labs has developed a solution for keeping cannabis products out of the hands of the unaware. The Keep is designed to keep your stash secure and reasonably camouflaged.

KEEP is the first home storage device expertly designed to store your stash in a smart, discreet, and secure manner – with your peace of mind, in mind.

And while we know that the perception of cannabis is changing, regulators and industries aren’t keeping up. For instance, we couldn’t use major crowdfunding sites to bring KEEP to the world.

Undeterred, we launched our own crowdfunding campaign so we can help people keep cannabis responsibly, not hidden.

Its design actually won it CES’s Innovation Award Honoree for CES 2020. Coincidentally, the CTA, the trade group in charge of CES, banned them from using the word “cannabis” in any descriptions of their product on the show floor. Otherwise, Keep Labs would not be allowed to display their product on the show floor.

It should be noted that this is the first time a company connected to cannabis has won this award, in itself a milestone. That said, Keep Labs decide not to exhibit at CES due to the stipulation made by the CTA.

It should also be noted that the award page for Keep actually uses the word “cannabis” itself. Oddly hypocritical.
