PURE CONES PAPERS: THE MATERIALS BEHIND THE PERFECT CONE

What to Know About the Types of Pre-Roll Papers and How to Choose the Right One:

When it comes to pre-rolls, most people focus on the flower. But the paper? That’s the part you’re actually lighting on fire—and it can have a big impact on flavor, burn quality, and what you're really inhaling.

At Pure Cones, we’ve spent years sourcing and testing the cleanest, most consistent rolling papers on the market. Whether you're building a brand, launching a new product line, or just curious about what's in your cone, here's a quick breakdown of our three main paper types—and what makes each one unique.

Our Core Types of Pre-Roll Papers:

REFINED WHITE PAPER

Our Pure White paper is refined, bright, and ultra-smooth. It’s bleached using a chlorine-free process and designed to burn evenly without interfering with the flavor of your flower. If you want a clean, classic look and a neutral smoke, this one’s your go-to.

Refined White paper is ultra-thin and chlorine-free, designed for brands that want a clean aesthetic and a flawless, even burn.

VIRGIN BROWN PAPER

Our Virgin Brown Paper is made from unbleached natural fibers and has a raw, earthy look and feel. It burns clean and evenly, and is a great match for minimalist or small-batch branding. Fully compliant and lab-tested for safety.

Virgin Brown paper is unbleached, natural, and warm-toned—ideal for brands that want an understated, handcrafted look.

100% HEMP PAPER

Our 100% Hemp paper is made from certified organic hemp pulp and offers a smooth, neutral taste with a slightly denser structure. It’s durable, slow-burning, and ideal for brands focused on plant-based materials and a cleaner, more conscious smoke. Like all our papers, it’s fully compliant and tested for pesticides, heavy metals, and combustion safety.

BAMBOO PAPER

Our Bamboo paper is made from sustainably sourced bamboo and offers a smooth, taste-neutral burn. Renowned for its smooth texture, bamboo grows rapidly without the need for pesticides or herbicides, making it a sustainable and attractive option for environmentally conscious brands. It's also the cleanest paper in our entire lineup based on recent lab testing, making it a top choice for brands focused on purity, compliance, and plant-based materials. Lightweight and ultra-fine, Bamboo paper delivers a refined look without adding flavor—and like all our papers, it's lab-tested for pesticides, heavy metals, and combustion safety.

IT'S NOT JUST A PRE-ROLL - IT'S A STATEMENT ABOUT YOUR BRAND.

When people ask us, “Which is the best rolling paper?” the answer is simple: there’s no single best paper. Each one brings something unique—it all depends on the kind of story you want your pre-roll to tell. The right choice comes down to what fits your brand’s values, your audience, and the experience you're creating. Whether it’s something clean and refined like White or Bamboo, or something more grounded like Virgin Brown or 100% Hemp, your paper becomes part of your product’s voice—and your brand’s identity.
