Opportunity
- The Development of New Smoking Alternatives
The development of new smoking alternatives has been an area of focus in response to changing consumer preferences and increasing health concerns related to traditional tobacco products. There are some alternatives to tobacco products such as electronic cigarettes, heat-not-burn devices, smokeless tobacco, Nicotine Replacement Therapies (NRTs), and herbal and non-nicotine alternatives among others.
E-cigarettes are battery-operated devices that heat a liquid (often containing nicotine) to produce an aerosol that is inhaled by the user. They are designed to mimic the sensation of smoking without the combustion of tobacco, thereby reducing exposure to harmful chemicals found in tobacco smoke. These devices, such as heat-not-burn tobacco products, heat tobacco leaves to a temperature below combustion, producing an inhalable vapour. This method aims to reduce the levels of harmful chemicals compared to traditional cigarettes while still providing a similar smoking experience.
Smokeless tobacco products, such as snus and snuff, are consumed by placing them between the gums and cheek or by sniffing or inhaling the powdered form. Smokeless tobacco products deliver nicotine without the need for combustion, reducing exposure to harmful smoke. NRTs include products such as nicotine gums, patches, lozenges, and inhalers. These products deliver nicotine to users to help manage cravings and withdrawal symptoms while avoiding the harmful effects of tobacco combustion.
