Packaging and claims about charitable contributions were central to a RAW papers lawsuit, bringing the company to back up the claims it makes in advertising. RAW manufactures rolling papers designed for use in smoking tobacco and cannabis. The company has had to clarify its claims about the origins of the organic hemp in its papers — here are the reasons for the RAW lawsuit.
RAW Rolling Papers, which was founded in 1995, was taken to court in 2023 due to allegedly deceptive marketing and promotional practices. The Lansing City Pulse reported that an Illinois federal court ordered RAW to stop making any false claims about the company, the origins of its products, and its charitable contributions.
RAW Rolling Papers is a company that makes rolling papers for cannabis and tobacco use. The packaging on its products had been stamped to indicate the papers were made in a part of Spain known as the birthplace of rolling papers. Product labeling stated that they were made in Alcoy, Spain.
The company's claims about its charitable organization and donations also came under fire with the lawsuit. The company had referred to a charitable organization called The Raw Foundation, but in the December 2022 court ruling no such organization related to RAW Rolling Papers was found to exist.
