Take the Smokeless September Challenge

Join us for our annual ritual and go Smokeless this September!

No combustion. No smoke. Less odor. More discretion. Pure flavor.

Take the Smokeless September Challenge

This September, STORZ & BICKEL invites cannabis consumers to try a 30-day combustion-free reset. Put down lighters and matches for the month, switch to a STORZ & BICKEL dry herb vaporizer where appropriate, and pay attention to what changes: harshness, odor, flavor, respiratory comfort, and overall ritual.

• Track how vaporization affects taste, aroma, and throat comfort.
• Experiment responsibly with lower and higher temperature settings.
• Keep the device clean for consistent vapor quality.
• Consult a healthcare professional if you use cannabis for medical reasons or have respiratory concerns.

The goal of this challenge is taking a moment to reflect and reset, and to experience the difference between combustion and vaporization. The Smokeless September Challenge gives you an opportunity to inhale the difference, and reflect on the health impacts observed over a period of time.

Change the Method, Not the Moment

Smokeless September is not about changing your routine, it is about changing the method. Keep the moments and rituals you already enjoy while exploring vaporization instead of combustion for 30 days.

The goal is simple: pay attention to what you notice. Explore different temperature settings, experience how flavor and aroma develop, and see how vaporization fits into your everyday routine. The experiment is not about perfection. It is about gaining firsthand experience and deciding for yourself what works best.

Why Go Smokeless?

• Vaporization reduces toxins by up to 99%.

  Recent research comparing dry herb vaporization with joint smoke found reductions of up to 99% in harmful compounds, including benzene and acetaldehyde. By eliminating combustion, vaporization significantly reduces exposure to toxins produced by burning cannabis.

• Vaporization is a proven harm-reduction method.

  Research supports dry herb vaporization as a lower-risk alternative to smoking cannabis. By heating flower without combustion, vaporization can reduce exposure to carbon monoxide and other harmful byproducts.

• Vaporization preserves flavor and aroma.

  Combustion destroys or alters many of the compounds responsible for cannabis' flavor and aroma. Dry herb vaporization uses controlled temperatures to release cannabinoids and terpenes without burning the flower, allowing consumers to experience more of the plant's natural flavor and aromatic profile.

Your consumption method matters.

Smokeless September is an opportunity to help consumers better understand how dry herb vaporization differs from combustion—and why the device and method they choose matter.

Not all vaporizers perform the same way. Precise temperature control, high-quality materials, airflow design, and consistent heating can affect vapor quality, compound release, and user experience. For patients and consumers seeking a safe combustion free option, choosing a reputable dry herb vaporizer is an important part of the process.

STORZ & BICKEL is the world’s first manufacturer to produce medically certified cannabis vaporizers. Since the VOLCANO launched in 2000, the device has become a gold standard for vaporization and has been used extensively in scientific research. S&B offers a premium vaporization experience that impresses with pure taste, quality vapor, and unmatched performance.
