Special Report|From CrossBar 20K to 6-Methyl Nicotine KUMI: Two Routes Into U.S. State Vape Directories?
Several U.S. states have incorporated the September 9, 2020 PMTA filing deadline into eligibility rules for certain vaping products.

Corporate records link Scott Silverman to Blue Nine LLC and VR Products I LLC. PMTA compliance expert Mr. K said historical applications and nicotine-analogue products may offer two different approaches to state-directory access.

Vape Manufacturer Ispire Expands Malaysia Operations, Negotiates Southeast Asia OEM Deal as Nicotine Pouch and US Age-Gating Businesses Develop
Vape Manufacturer Ispire Expands Malaysia Operations, Negotiates Southeast Asia OEM Deal as Nicotine Pouch and US Age-Gating Businesses Develop
US-listed vaping technology and manufacturing company Ispire Technology reported fiscal first-quarter 2027 revenue of $27.5 million on November 9, 2026, down 9.3% year over year but up 3.2% sequentially. Gross margin recovered to 16.2%, while its net loss widened to $6.4 million from $3.3 million a year earlier. Management attributed the sales decline primarily to tighter European vaping regulation and reduced distributor orders. Ispire is expanding manufacturing in Malaysia and negotiating an OEM/ODM agreement with a Southeast Asian vaping brand, with an announcement anticipated in January 2027. The company estimates that Malaysian manufacturing offers an approximately 25% US tariff advantage over China-based production. However, it continues to purchase products from Shenzhen Yi Jia Technology Co., Ltd., a manufacturer controlled by its chairman, and reported $52 million in non-current related-party payables at September 30.

Special report|Indonesia's Vape Industry Has 200 Manufacturers and $1.7 Billion in Investment. Could a Regulatory Divide Derail Its Rise as the World's No. 2 Manufacturing Hub After Shenzhen?
Indonesia's Ministry of Industry said at a November 3, 2026, policy forum that the country has about 200 electronic cigarette companies, Rp31 trillion (approximately $1.71 billion) in cumulative industry investment and around 100,000 jobs across the supply chain. The National Narcotics Agency is seeking a comprehensive ban on vape use and circulation, while the industry ministry favors tighter import, product-standard and distribution controls. Indonesia exported approximately $518 million in vaping products in 2025, and Chinese manufacturers including Smoore, GEEKVAPE and Jinjia Group have established local operations. An international logistics specialist interviewed by 2Firsts said more Chinese vape companies began production in Indonesia from the second half of 2025, accompanied by increased shipments of manufacturing equipment and investment in logistics facilities. The regulatory debate comes as Indonesia expands its role in international vaping manufacturing.
