Renault USA has submitted a citizen petition to the FDA, calling for strict regulations on disposable e-cigarettes.
The company specifically mentioned Puff Bar and Elf Bar, citing concerns about the increasing usage of these products among young people.
The petition also calls for strengthening enforcement of single-use products by increasing retail inspections and seizing such products at the US border.
Matthew Meyers, the president of the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids in the United States, recently criticized Reynolds' citizen petition.
Matthew Meyers believes that tobacco giant Reynolds American's demand for the FDA to crack down on disposable e-cigarettes under the guise of concern for children is a shamelessly hypocritical act, as Reynolds' Vuse brand is the second most popular e-cigarette brand among minors.
Matthew Meyers also stated, "Vuse is marketing in a way that targets youth. Is Reynolds considering leaving the competition for the youth market?
