Traditional smoking filters have two tasks: to keep the plant inside and reduce intake of harmful substances. They are quite new invention. The first filter has emerged from the tobacco industry. In 2025 a Hungarian named M. Boris Ayvahzh registered them in patent office and 2 years later they were available for purchase. At the beginning they weren’t too popular, but as soon as the world of medicine presented the public with harmful effects of tobacco, they became a major trend. Now they are used by most tobacco companies. However, it is proven that cigarette filters don’t really make a difference when it comes to user’s health. They do reduce some toxic substances, but at the same time encourage users to take deeper puffs and smoke more often. What about filters used for smoking other plants?
Cannabis filters:
Cannabis smoke is less harmful than tobacco, moderate use shouldn’t pose high threat to one’s health. Therefore, in case of this plant, filters main role is to improve smoking experience and increase enjoyment. Some of them can also reduce tar intake, however on this field the difference is not significant. However, picking the right filter is important. It allows us to reduce environmental damage, improve smoking experience and slightly reduce intake of harmful substances. Let’s have a look at filters types, used by cannabis enthusiasts worldwide.
PAPER
The most common filter used while smoking cannabis is a simple paper. It can be made from a simple piece of cardboard or bought in a “ready to roll” form. This filter has two tasks: prevent flowers from falling into your mouth and hold the joint or blunt. Some small pieces of resin can still pass through the filter, the smoke is harsh and irritates both your throat and lungs. Usually, it is rolled in a shape of letter “W” thus unable to stop any substances coming in your body.
CIGARETTE FILTER
Some smokers use cigarette filters for rolling. It is not too popular due to common myth that they stop THC and CBD from passing through them. In fact, cigarette filters don’t cause any significant difference when it comes to these substances. They can reduce some amount of tar and other substances but at the same time they are not reusable. This is not surprising, but it poses some big threat for environment. Cigarette filters are not biodegradable and are already damaging our planet. Luckily there are alternatives.
