EU TPD testing services
 
——The EU TPD Directive on the content of electronic cigarettes is detailed
 
The EU Tobacco Directive TPD (2014/40/EU) entered into force in May 2014, and the two-year transition period has ended. EU member states will complete and implement the legal procedures related to the new directive in May this year. Controls will be imposed on all new tobacco products entering the EU market. E-cigarette products exported to the EU market must meet the requirements of the TPD directive, otherwise they will be banned, confiscated or returned, which will bring huge losses to electronic manufacturers. Therefore, how to make e-cigarette products comply with the EU TPD directive to avoid losses has become a problem that manufacturers must face. This article provides a detailed explanation of the e-cigarette-related issues in the TPD directive.
 
1. The main contents of the product electronic notice
 
1. Manufacturer name and contact information
2. List of ingredients and content of emissions
3. Toxicological data
4. Nicotine dose intake information
5. Product composition and production process description
6. Declaration of product quality and safety responsibility
 
Second, the requirements of cigarette oil and liquid reservoir
 
Nicotine-containing vape liquids are placed on the market only in professional fillers and filled containers with a volume of no more than 10 mL, in disposable electrons
