IQOS Launches BONDS and BLENDS for Smoke-Free Alternatives
Philip Morris International launches BONDS by IQOS, a new heated tobacco system with specially designed blends for adult smokers.

Phillip Morris International (PMI) (NYSE: PM) announced on November 22, 2022 the release of their latest heated tobacco system, BONDS by IQOS, along with its specially designed tobacco sticks, BLENDS. This information was obtained from the official PMI website.


According to reports, this product also features IQOS's proprietary no-burn tobacco heating technology.


Like all smoke-free and nicotine-containing products from PMI, IQOS BONDS are intended for adults who will continue to smoke or use other nicotine products and are looking for a better alternative to traditional cigarettes.


The IQOS BONDS are designed to be used exclusively with BLENDS tobacco sticks, providing a variety of tobacco flavors. Upon launch, BLENDS sticks will be available in five different flavors. Once fully charged, the IQOS BONDS can be used up to 20 times, including three consecutive uses. The IQOS BONDS come in four different colors.
