What Calyx does

Calyx Labs is a Canadian-incorporated, B2B wholesale distributor of CCELL vaporization hardware serving the legal cannabis industry. The company functions as an authorized distributor of CCELL-branded products, operating exclusively in wholesale channels with no direct-to-consumer sales. Calyx Labs serves licensed cannabis producers, retailers/wholesalers, and brands seeking private label arrangements, with primary markets in the United States and Canada and publicly signaled interest in expanding into legalized European markets (Netherlands, Germany, Spain). The company maintains offices in New York (headquarters) and Ontario, Canada, and is governed by Canadian law per its Privacy Policy.

The company's product portfolio spans more than 40 SKUs organized across five categories: All-In-One devices (split into Pro and Classic lines), cartridges, batteries, pod systems, and E-Rigs (marketed under the AUXO sub-brand). All products are powered by CCELL's patented porous ceramic heating technology, which Calyx Labs has distributed under an authorized partnership since 2016. Notable product launches include the Voca Pro Max, EVO MAX cartridges with enhanced heating technology, the Eco Star biodegradable line, and the Cenote E-Rig paired with the AUXO companion app for temperature customization. The company also offers private label and customization services for brands seeking white-label hardware.

Calyx Labs operates a quote-based B2B wholesale pricing model with no public price list, supplemented by a sample program for prospective clients and an emphasis on quality assurance and tamper-evident packaging practices. As a privately held wholesale hardware distributor, the company generates revenue exclusively through sales of CCELL-powered vaporization hardware to licensed industry participants, with no disclosed funding rounds, M&A activity, or public revenue figures. The strategic posture emphasizes deepening product breadth within existing categories while selectively expanding the geographic and channel footprint.
