[ACCESSWIRE]

BOULDER, CO / ACCESSWIRE / December 1, 2015 / Child-resistant packaging and consistent, appropriate labeling is vital for the legal cannabis industry to move forward and it is in that spirit that CLS Holdings USA Inc. (OTCQB: CLSH), a development stage diversified cannabis company, has sponsored the inaugural white paper by MJIC Media, a marijuana media conglomerate.

The white paper, "State by State Packaging Rules Regarding Cannabis: Summary without Cynicism," addresses specifics within cannabis packaging and labeling, including images, logos and resemblances; regulatory speed; expiration dates; and an alphabetical state-by-state review, with all the states that have legalized at least some possession or consumption of cannabis. The discussion of each state's rules and regulations is accompanied by a link to a more official and complete source of information.

"It is important that we, as an industry, move to standardize testing and labeling across state lines," said Jeff Binder, CEO of CLS Holdings USA. "MJIC Media is at the forefront of disseminating information to the cannabis industry. It is an honor to have been chosen by MJIC Media to sponsor their inaugural white paper."

"We're thrilled to produce this with CLS Holdings USA because cannabis packaging and labeling is a critical sector of the industry that all market participants need to understand and this white paper is a big step toward a broader consensus," said Chris Gromek, COO of MJIC Media.

"The white paper should help investors and entrepreneurs by bringing to their attention the need for standardization of testing and labeling for the cannabis industry," Binder said. "In particular, investors should consider investing in cannabis companies that perform good testing and provide good labeling for their products."

CLS Holdings USA has made a complimentary copy of the white paper available for download on its website.
