Iceberg Dispo: A New Disposable E-cigarette Product Launch
The popular product "ICEBERG Dispo" by Beyond Vape Japan is now available as a prize at select stores.

According to a PR times report on August 1, the popular product "ICEBERG Dispo" from e-cigarette company Beyond Vape Japan is being tested as a prize redemption item in certain stores under Marusaka Co., Ltd. starting from July 30. These stores include locations in Shinjuku, Toyoshima, and Yachiyo City.

 

"ICEBERG Dispo" is a disposable e-cigarette product that is nicotine-free, tar-free, and easy to use. Previously, traditional cigarettes could only be used in designated smoking areas within the Marusaka Corporation stores, while heated tobacco products were allowed to be used in specific areas within the store.

 

After this collaboration, customers are now able to use "ICEBERG Dispo" in the designated smoking areas within Marusaka Co., Ltd. stores. Some stores have even set up special gaming areas for heated tobacco products, allowing customers to easily experience "ICEBERG Dispo".

 

In order to support the proper disposal of devices used by "ICEBERG Dispo," dedicated recycling bins have been set up in the store.

FDA Unifies Tobacco Registration and Product Listing Form Across Product Categories
The U.S. FDA has consolidated two tobacco establishment registration and product listing forms into a redesigned Form FDA 3741 covering all regulated product categories, including e-cigarettes, heated tobacco products and nicotine pouches. The current requirements remain limited to domestic establishments. Separately, the FDA has proposed extending registration and product listing requirements to foreign manufacturers, signaling greater regulatory attention to manufacturing entities and product-level information across the tobacco and nicotine supply chain.

Malaysia Withdraws Appeal Against Liquid Nicotine Ruling as Vape Regulation Framework Enters New Phase
Malaysia’s government has withdrawn its appeal against a High Court ruling concerning the regulatory status of liquid nicotine used in vape and e-cigarette products, according to reports by New Straits Times, Free Malaysia Today and CodeBlue on August 18, 2026. The Kuala Lumpur High Court ruled on May 15 that the government’s decision to remove liquid nicotine from the scheduled poisons list under the Poisons Act 1952 was irrational and made without proper consultation with the Poisons Board. The withdrawal ends the government’s appeal process, while the future regulatory framework for nicotine vape products remains under discussion.

UK Directors Banned After 352,688 Vapes Imported From China Were Misdeclared as Medical Nebulizers in £15 Million Tax Case

From Nicotine Salts to Cocrystals: China’s Shenzhen Huabao institute explores a more stable form for sustained nicotine release
China-based Shenzhen Huabao Collaborative Innovation Technology Research Institute Co., Ltd. has filed a patent application for a nicotine-ascorbic acid cocrystal, exploring a new solid-state form of nicotine. The patent proposes applications across e-liquids, heated tobacco sticks, oral tobacco, chewing tobacco and snuff. In nicotine pouch tests disclosed in the filing, cocrystal formulations showed less than a 6% decline in nicotine content after three months of accelerated storage and a release profile combining early-stage release with sustained delivery over 60 minutes. The filing reflects exploration of nicotine forms beyond conventional nicotine base and nicotine salts.
