According to the company, VLT has the following characteristics:

 

Sustainability and Eco-friendly design: VLT allows consumers to refill pods, with its eco-friendly design including rechargeable batteries and various pod sizes, aimed at reducing electronic waste; Cost and Operational Efficiency: Compared to traditional disposable e-cigarette systems, VLT's refillable pods are more cost-effective. It reduces labor costs and improves production efficiency through the Ispire ONE™ filling machine. The sealed design of VLT preserves natural terpenes in cannabis extracts to enhance product flavor and prolong shelf life; Upgraded 510 Interface Devices (510-thread experience): Offering various pod sizes, colors, and customization options, VLT's sealed pod design prevents terpene evaporation.

 

The company stated that a portion of the profits from VLT will be donated to organizations dedicated to reducing non-recyclable electronic waste, making it a plastic-neutral product.

 

Inspire CEO Michael Wang said,

 

The VLT marks a revolutionary advancement in the field of cannabis inhalation. By combining the familiarity of a 510 interface device with a multi-functional, refillable system, we are providing our partners and consumers with a truly customizable experience, while also addressing the environmental and economic challenges posed by disposable products.

 

Disposable devices are a major source of electronic waste, but through VLT, consumers not only save money but also reduce their carbon footprint. VLT offers a high-end and sustainable experience without compromising convenience and affordability. This is the ideal solution for multi-state operators (MSOs), single-state operators (SSOs), and brands seeking sustainable growth to provide consumers with smarter and more environmentally friendly alternatives to disposable products.

Canada Considers Easing Pharmacy-Only Nicotine Pouch Sales Rules, Potentially Reopening Convenience Store Channel
Canada Considers Easing Pharmacy-Only Nicotine Pouch Sales Rules, Potentially Reopening Convenience Store Channel
Canada's federal government is considering changes to current restrictions on where nicotine pouches can be sold, potentially allowing authorized products to return to convenience stores and other general retail channels, although no decision has been made. Since 2024, emerging nicotine replacement therapy products such as nicotine pouches have been largely restricted to behind-the-counter pharmacy sales. Health Canada, meanwhile, continues to recall unauthorized and higher-strength nicotine pouches, indicating that the current discussion concerns retail access for authorized products rather than a broad relaxation of nicotine pouch regulation.

Special Report | How Capital Is Reassessing the Global Tobacco and Modern Nicotine Industry: Lessons from a New York Forum
Capital is reassessing the global tobacco and modern nicotine industry as heated tobacco, vaping and nicotine pouches reshape demand, profitability and regulation. At the 2026 New Approaches Summit in New York, investors and analysts examined whether smoke-free growth can sustain earnings, how regulation shapes startup value, and whether shareholder engagement can be more effective than divestment. The debate points to a broader shift: tobacco transition is increasingly becoming a capital-allocation, governance and valuation question.

Malaysia's Poisons Board Backs New Vape Nicotine Exemption After Unanimously Opposing 2023 Proposal
Malaysia's Poisons Board Backs New Vape Nicotine Exemption After Unanimously Opposing 2023 Proposal
Malaysia's Poisons Board has endorsed Health Minister Dzulkefly Ahmad's proposal to exempt liquid nicotine used in vaping products from the Poisons List, according to a November 2, 2026, report by CodeBlue. The Board unanimously opposed a similar proposal in 2023, but the government proceeded with the exemption. The Kuala Lumpur High Court invalidated the 2023 decision in May 2026, and the government withdrew its appeal in August. No new ministerial order has been published. The development raises questions about the interaction between Malaysia's two regulatory frameworks and the treatment of RM354.51 million in excise duties collected on e-cigarette and vape products between May 2023 and June 11, 2026.
