CBD products available in Switzerland
Among European countries, Switzerland is a key player in the production and sale of cannabidiol. Legal since 2011, compared to 2019 in France, the molecule cannabidiol (CBD) has long dominated the Swiss market and is now spreading to French markets. Since its relaxing, anti-inflammatory, pain-relieving and anxiety-reducing properties were discovered, cannabidiol has been a hit! Numerous products derived from legal hemp are emerging, and French consumers’ curiosity is growing.
This diversity of products, derived from Swiss CBD flowers or seeds, suggests that the expansion of cannabidiol will know no bounds. What are the different types of products currently available in Switzerland?
Key takeaways:
The different types of CBD products in Switzerland
Powerful CBD flowers
Switzerland is renowned in the world of cannabidiol for its experts, who work every day to create new products… and new strains! It is through the hybridisation of different strains recognised for their properties that they have succeeded in creating new, 100% Swiss CBD seeds.
The flowering process often involves indoor or greenhouse cultivation (in a building or greenhouse), which allows the growth and flowering of the hemp plants to be monitored. Thanks to their work on the varieties and their meticulous monitoring during flowering, the Swiss grow very potent CBD flowers with a distinctive taste.
It is from these flowers, rich in cannabinoids and flavour, that they create their resins. CBD hash is available in several forms and from different traditions, from Red Lebanese to Afghan hash.
Swiss CBD capsules & oils
The Swiss also excel in the production of cannabidiol oils and microdosed capsules. The oils derive their cannabinoid concentration directly from hemp plants grown in Switzerland. There are two well-known types:
- CBD oil: the best known. Pure cannabidiol is mixed with edible oil. This method has the advantage of making it easier to measure out the dose and allows for convenient mixing with other active ingredients.
- Hemp oil, which is produced directly from Swiss CBD seeds through pressing. It is rich in vitamins and trace elements.
Swiss cannabidiol oil is also available in capsule form, which allows you to enhance your dietary routine with a very precise dosage. Traditional oils, on the other hand, are administered using a pipette that dispenses drops of CBD.
Cosmetics
Creams, skincare products, serums, body oils – cannabidiol has long been incorporated into cosmetics. In Switzerland, you can find a wide range of products designed to:
- Protect and strengthen the skin, thanks to the regenerative action of cannabidiol.
- Relieve pain, thanks to its analgesic properties.
- Relax muscles, as CBD is a muscle relaxant.
- Reduce inflammation and skin conditions, thanks to its anti-inflammatory properties.

Food products
In Switzerland, cannabidiol is also extremely popular when ingested. Herbal teas and sweets are part of the mix! When added to a herbal tea, organic CBD enhances the relaxing effect, whilst in a culinary preparation, it stimulates the taste buds!
E-liquids
Vapers are far from being forgotten. Swiss expertise extends across many fields. Swiss producers have focused their development efforts in particular on vapes and cannabidiol e-liquids. This optimises the ‘bioavailability’ of CBD (i.e. the body’s absorption of cannabidiol) and allows it to be vaped anywhere, with complete peace of mind.
The benefits of Swiss CBD
Organic Swiss CBD products
As cannabidiol has long been popular in Switzerland, customer expectations are much higher. This is why the CBD products available on the Swiss market are often organically farmed. This helps to keep the cannabidiol molecule intact whilst protecting the consumer from any contaminants (pesticides, chemicals, etc.). CBD oils, flowers and hash are therefore usually 100% organic!
The price of Swiss CBD
Contrary to what one might think, the price of cannabidiol is not exorbitant in Switzerland. This is largely due to its leading position in the European market. Swiss CBD is not difficult to produce and is therefore not expensive.
Furthermore, many cannabidiol products are designed to reduce costs (such as trimmings, small buds or loose flowers).
Are products available in Switzerland also available in France?
Reminder regarding Swiss and European legislation
Europe recommends a THC content of less than 0.2% in all hemp-derived products. This very low level prevents any psychoactive effects. In Switzerland, the situation is slightly different: products may contain up to 1% THC. The limit is therefore much higher!
Can I consume Swiss CBD in France?
In France, the legal limit is 0.2%. We comply with European legislation. This does not mean you cannot consume organic CBD from Switzerland! Sellers are aware of the French and European legal limits and produce CBD suitable for export. You should always check the composition of the products or flowers you buy.
On Sixty8, every product is available within the legal limits of European and French laws, to avoid any confusion.
