Vape quality matters at Vuse

A great deal of care and research goes into every e-liquid and product that Vuse makes, to ensure the brand is using high-quality ingredients and offering consistent vapour quality. Vuse’s vapour consists only of high-quality pharmaceutical and food-grade ingredients. “Our team of 50 scientists scrutinise every detail, from what goes into the e-liquids, to the vapour that comes out,” the company states. Vuse e-liquids can contain up to fi ve ingredients, two of which are Propylene Glycol (PG) and Vegetable Glycerin (VG). PG is a clear, almost odourless ingredient that carries the fl avouring in the product and Vuse only uses pharmaceutical-grade propylene glycol. VG is the second key ingredient which is slightly sweet in fl avour and produces thicker vapour when heated. To generate the fl avour in its e-liquid formulas, Vuse only uses food-grade fl avourings that its fl avourists carefully measure in line with toxicological guidance to generate the perfect fl avour.

The team conducts detailed analysis to test all the elements in the formula, and fl avourists then refi ne and re-engineer the vapour to improve the quality and ensure the purity of the vapour. The company also completes toxicological risk assessments on every ingredient in its e-liquids and all fl avours.

Vuse says it places huge emphasis on transparency, as building trust with your customers is critical. Being able to understand the ingredients that are in the product your consumers are purchasing, is a great fi rst step to building that trust.
