SKE Introduces New Multi-Reload System for E-Cigarettes
SKE introduces new multi-pod system as UK government bans disposable e-cigarettes, signaling a shift towards reusable products.

E-cigarette brand SKE has introduced a new multi-refill system product. The new series made its debut following the UK government's announcement of banning disposable e-cigarettes, signifying the first step in the market's transition from disposable products to reusable ones.

 

The 4-in-1 system by SKE (retail price: £12.99) can accommodate four different flavors of pods simultaneously, along with a revolving mechanism that enables users to switch between different pods and change flavors instantly.

 

SKE spokesperson stated, "The success of the e-cigarette industry lies in its disruptive and adaptive capabilities. We believe that other brands will also follow our lead in developing new products for adult individuals, particularly disposable tobacco users, who desire to quit smoking and steer clear from traditional cigarettes.

 

As the landscape of our industry changes, one major product category appears poised to be banned. The industry as a whole is making every effort to maximize the smoking cessation potential of e-cigarettes and continue supporting the government's ambitious vision for a smoke-free future. This is of utmost importance.

 

SKE's new device offers a selection of 16 flavors, including watermelon ice, watermelon strawberry, pink lemonade, melonberry, blueberry raspberry, cola ice, blueberry raspberry, blueberry peach, lemon lime, blueberry lime, tropical mix, lychee ice, cherry ice, strawberry burst, emerald cherry, and white peach dazzle.

China Tobacco Supply-Chain Leader Huabao’s Three-Way Transformation Takes Hold as Overseas Revenue Jumps 216%, Non-Flavor Businesses Reach 42.2% and the Company Expands Into Global Next-Generation Tobacco Supply Chains
China Tobacco Supply-Chain Leader Huabao’s Three-Way Transformation Takes Hold as Overseas Revenue Jumps 216%, Non-Flavor Businesses Reach 42.2% and the Company Expands Into Global Next-Generation Tobacco Supply Chains
Huabao’s H1 2026 results show the company advancing across three connected fronts: international expansion, entry into next-generation tobacco supply chains and diversification beyond its traditional tobacco-related base. Overseas revenue rose 216.08% to CNY 96.02 million, while non-flavor businesses reached 42.2% of total revenue. Huabao also said it had entered the supply chains of leading global tobacco customers, as its nutrition, food ingredient, fragrance and personal-care businesses gained ground in Europe, Southeast Asia, Australia and New Zealand. However, adjusted net profit increased only 2.78%, and next-generation tobacco revenue was not separately disclosed, showing that the transformation is reshaping revenue and customer exposure but has yet to translate fully into underlying earnings.

JTI Proposes 25-Cent Irish Cigarette Tax Increase, Says It Could Raise €45 Million
JTI Proposes 25-Cent Irish Cigarette Tax Increase, Says It Could Raise €45 Million
Japan Tobacco International's Irish business has proposed a €0.25 tax increase on a pack of 20 cigarettes in its pre-Budget 2027 submission, below the €0.50-or-more increases typically imposed in recent Irish budgets. JTI says the proposal could generate around €45 million in additional Exchequer revenue while limiting further movement toward illicit and non-Irish-tax-paid tobacco. Revenue's existing estimate for a comparable €0.25 increase, including pro-rata rises on other tobacco products, is about €18 million for a full year.

STIIIZY Redesign Fails to Escape PAX Labs Patent Import Ban as Section 337 Case Also Involves China ALD
STIIIZY Redesign Fails to Escape PAX Labs Patent Import Ban as Section 337 Case Also Involves China ALD
U.S. Customs and Border Protection ruled that STIIIZY had not shown that the redesigned cannabis-vape products covered by its latest request fall outside an ITC limited exclusion order tied to PAX Labs patents. CBP accepted some of STIIIZY’s claim-construction and non-infringement arguments, but the company did not address two additional claims in the same patent. Earlier STIIIZY redesigned cartridges and certain associated components imported with them had received separate CBP clearance.
