RIFBAR attracts attention at e-cigarette expo in Malaysia, showcasing innovative products with gaming integration for social interaction.

At the e-cigarette exhibition in Malaysia, the RIFBAR booth attracted numerous onlookers. On the morning of September 7, Ray, the head of sales department at RIFBAR, was interviewed by 2Firsts. He stated that choosing to showcase their products in the core area of the exhibition was a strategic market exploration. "Our products are creative and unique. We wanted to test the Malaysian market and evaluate the potential of RIFBAR products in Malaysia."

 

Merge the game with e-cigarettes

 

As an emerging e-cigarette brand, RIFBAR has established influence in the markets of the United States and Europe. The highlight of its products is the built-in gaming function, allowing users to interact with games on the screen while using the e-cigarette. Users can even "connect" two e-cigarette devices and socialize with others. This creative design that combines e-cigarettes with gaming interaction has given RIFBAR a unique positioning in the competitive market.

 

Our core belief is to encourage more social interaction through our products," explained Ray. "We aim to bring diverse fun and social elements to users.

South Korea Vape Strategies Diverge as BAT Reconsiders Exit and PMI Takes VEEV to About 14,000 Stores
South Korea Vape Strategies Diverge as BAT Reconsiders Exit and PMI Takes VEEV to About 14,000 Stores
BAT Rothmans says it previously considered exiting South Korea's vaping market because of competitive pressure from unregulated products, but is now reassessing conditions following changes to the country's nicotine regulatory framework. Vuse and other BAT vaping products remain available through existing distribution channels. The statement followed a South Korean media report that interpreted BAT's broader withdrawal from selected Vapour markets as a full exit from South Korea. Meanwhile, Philip Morris International launched VEEV inPRIME in the country in June and began expanding distribution to around 14,000 convenience stores and other retail channels in July. The contrasting moves highlight differing investment strategies as South Korea's regulated vaping market evolves.

A 12-week European Commission consultation on revising the Tobacco Products Directive and Tobacco Advertising Directive is due to close on Aug. 14, 2026. The Commission has identified e-cigarette flavours, disposable vapes, tobacco heating devices, nicotine pouches, nicotine-free e-cigarettes, packaging and digital marketing among areas for possible new EU rules. National regulations already vary significantly across the bloc, a fragmentation the Commission says creates internal-market barriers and distorts competition. No formal revised TPD/TAD legislative text has yet been published, with the Commission currently indicating December 2026 for the legislative initiative.
