Integra Boost 80mm Stick 72% Reads as Length, Not Weight
The number in the name is a length in millimeters, not a weight in grams. That trips people up, because every other pack in the range is sized by grams of gel. At 80 mm this is the shorter stick, and the other one is 110 mm. The setpoint is 72% RH, the higher of the two tiers Integra publishes for cigars and the one it points at dry climates. The fill is the same plant-based glycerin and water used across the range, with no salt in it. The membrane is the same spill-proof, tear-resistant material. A master case holds 1,500 sticks under a single double overwrap.
Where 72% Stops and the Storage Tiers Begin
72% is not a storage number. Cured flower goes at 55% or 62%, ten points and more below this, and material held here reads damp. The tier exists for cigars, and specifically for tubes and cabinets in a climate that keeps pulling moisture out. In a humid room the 69% stick does much the same job with rather less to push against. Above this sit the 75% and 84% packs, which are seasoning settings rather than holding ones, and neither is made in stick form. So the stick range tops out here. If a container needs more than 72% to come back from a long dry spell, it needs a seasoning pack rather than a stick.
Key Features
- 80mm Is a Length: The figure in the name is millimeters of stick body, not grams of gel.
- 72% RH Cigar Tier: The higher of the two cigar settings, pointed at dry-climate storage.
- Top of the Stick Range: 75% and 84% are seasoning tiers and are not offered in stick form.
- Above Every Flower Storage Tier: Cured material goes at 55% or 62% RH, ten points and more below this.
- Two-Way Control: Adds moisture to a dry tube and holds there rather than climbing past its number.
- Salt-Free Plant-Based Fill: The same glycerin and water blend used across the whole Boost range.
- 1,500 Sticks Per Master Case: A line quantity, double overwrapped as one case rather than wrapped singly.
- No Overwrap and No Cards: The bulk configuration, which is what brings the per-stick cost down.
- Longer Stick Also Stocked: The 110 mm body at the same tier ships 1,200 to a case.

Does 80mm Mean Grams?
No. It is a length in millimeters. The gram figures on this site belong to the flat sachets, not to the sticks.
Is 72% Right for Storing Flower?
No. Integra directs cured flower to 55% or 62% RH. Material held at 72% reads damp.
Are There 75% or 84% Sticks?
No. Those tiers exist as flat packs only, and both are seasoning settings rather than holding ones.
Should You Run 69% or 72%?
72% suits a dry climate or a container that keeps losing moisture. 69% is the drier of the two cigar tiers.
