VAPORESSO Plans to Enhance CSR with Environmental Initiatives
Vaporesso is committed to protecting the environment by offering eco-friendly shopping experiences and launching recycling programs worldwide.

Vaporesso, an electronic cigarette brand under the Smoore company, has announced plans to strengthen its commitment to protecting the environment and advancing corporate social responsibility (CSR) by providing customers with a unique shopping experience.


The "Recycle Your Vape" campaign by VAPORESSO has been launched in over 130 retail stores across the United States and the United Kingdom. The initiative aims to decrease the environmental impact of disposable electronic cigarette devices by retrieving them from landfill sites. The campaign also strives to raise awareness among e-cigarette enthusiasts and encourages more people to participate in environmentally-friendly actions while earning rewards.


Vaporesso is offering a winter care package to customers who make purchases at 40 designated locations in France. The company is also partnering with French non-governmental organization, La Vape Du Cœur, with the aim of reducing the risks associated with smoking. Working through French hospitals and healthcare professionals, the NGO will provide e-cigarette devices to legal smokers who want to quit but are facing financial difficulties.

Science | International Experts Propose a New Smoking Cessation Pathway, Citing Higher Quit Rates With E-Cigarettes Than Nicotine Replacement Therapy
A new expert paper in JAMA urges U.S. clinicians to include nicotine e-cigarettes in smoking-cessation discussions, citing higher quit rates than nicotine replacement therapy. It also stresses that products must deliver enough nicotine to replace cigarettes, dual use should be brief, and complete switching is the goal. 2Firsts argues the recommendations matter beyond clinics: public-health professionals should reassess relative risk, regulators should preserve sufficient product appeal for adult smokers, and manufacturers should focus on helping users quit cigarettes more sustainably.
