In response to this incident, on the afternoon of June 14, officials from VOZOL stated to 2FIRSTS that the confiscated products were counterfeit.

According to the spokesperson, counterfeit VOZOL products have recently been found in multiple countries around the world. The original candy bag in the photo has the VOZOL logo, but the packaging box does not have any anti-counterfeit labels attached, which is a requirement for all compliant VOZOL products exported. Therefore, the spokesperson determined that this batch of products is counterfeit.

At the same time, VOZOL has issued a notice on its official website regarding the identification and verification methods for counterfeit VOZOL products that have recently surfaced. The announcement can be found at https://vozoltech.com/news/info/48.

Special Report｜Disposable Heated Tobacco? A China Tobacco Patent Reimagines the Heated-Tobacco Stick as a Self-Contained Product

A newly published China Tobacco patent proposes a holder-free heat-not-burn stick that integrates the filter, tobacco substrate, heating element, controller and power source into one cigarette-shaped product. It stands out not just for eliminating the external heating device, but for explicitly highlighting two less common goals in heated tobacco: restoring cigarette-like social sharing and enabling post-use recovery through a recoverable component group.
