研究表明，2025 年一次性电子烟禁令出台后，电子烟爱好者可能会转向黑市或恢复吸烟

根据最近的调查结果，多达 40% 的电子烟用户可能会转向黑市购买电子烟供应品

Recent findings indicate that up to 40 per cent of vapers may resort to the black market for their vaping supplies following the 2025 ban on single-use vapes.

最近的调查结果表明，在 2025 年禁止一次性电子烟之后，多达 40% 的电子烟使用者可能会诉诸黑市购买电子烟供应。

This poses a significant concern as illegal vapes, which are already prevalent in the UK, can contain harmful materials like lead and nickel. Furthermore, they frequently exceed legal nicotine levels and can deliver an alarming 7,000 puffs, far exceeding the 600 to 1,000 puff range of legal products.

这引起了人们的严重关注，因为非法电子烟在英国已经很普遍，可能含有铅和镍等有害物质。此外，它们经常超过法定尼古丁含量，并且可以吸食 7,000 口，远远超过合法产品的 600 至 1,000 口范围。

The study, which surveyed 1,000 vapers, also reveals more concerning news: not only will there be a rise in black market sales, but about one in four vapers could go back to smoking tobacco, and a third are worried about increasing their nicotine consumption.

这项研究对 1000 名电子烟使用者进行了调查，还揭示了更多令人担忧的消息：不仅黑市销量将会增加，而且大约四分之一的电子烟使用者可能会重新吸食烟草，三分之一的电子烟使用者担心尼古丁消费量会增加。

The survey was conducted by Ubbs a nicotine pouch brand, together with retailer Haypp, in light of the Government's goal for a smoke-free nation.

鉴于政府建立无烟国家的目标，该调查由尼古丁袋装品牌 Ubbs 与零售商 Haypp 共同进行。

Commenting on the matter, Steve McGeough, a representative for Ubbs, shared his concerns: "It's really worrying to hear vapers saying they would seriously consider turning to cigarettes when the ban comes into force in 2025."

Ubbs 的代表 Steve McGeough 在评论此事时表达了他的担忧：“听到电子烟用户表示，当禁令于 2025 年生效时，他们将认真考虑转向卷烟，这确实令人担忧。”

"Also concerningly, the findings show how some would even seek out unregulated vapes which is a real worry from a quality and safety point of view."

“同样令人担忧的是，调查结果表明，有些人甚至会寻找不受监管的电子烟，从质量和安全的角度来看，这确实令人担忧。”

"Our research is clear, while disposable vapes might be on the way out there are plenty of safe and regulated alternatives out there to try now or when the ban comes into play," he adds.

他补充道：“我们的研究很明确，虽然一次性电子烟可能即将被淘汰，但现在或禁令生效后，有很多安全且受监管的替代品可供尝试。”

"Nicotine pouches are a popular option which are supporting the UK with their goal of becoming a smoke free nation."

“尼古丁袋是一种受欢迎的选择，它支持英国成为无烟国家的目标。”

The study also found that nearly three-quarters of respondents have not tried alternatives to vaping, with 28 per cent considering a return to traditional cigarettes, 21 per cent possibly opting for chewing gum, and 25 per cent open to nicotine pouches.

研究还发现，近四分之三的受访者没有尝试过电子烟的替代品，其中 28% 的人考虑回归传统香烟，21% 的人可能选择口香糖，25% 的人愿意选择尼古丁袋。

Moreover, 30 per cent of those surveyed claimed to be 'very aware' of the risks associated with unregulated vapes, highlighting the lack of nicotine warnings (41 per cent) and emission testing information (30 per cent) as key concerns.

此外，30％的受访者声称“非常了解”与不受监管的电子烟相关的风险，并强调缺乏尼古丁警告（41％）和排放测试信息（30％）是主要问题。

When choosing alternatives, 52 per cent prioritise appealing flavours and smells, followed by safety and quality assurance (50 per cent), and discreetness (33 per cent).

在选择替代品时，52% 的人优先考虑有吸引力的口味和气味，其次是安全和质量保证 (50%)，以及谨慎性 (33%)。

Commenting on the survey results, Markus Lindbald from Haypp said: "On a more positive note, it's promising to see how many are attempting to quit vaping ahead of the ban or explore other reduced risk alternatives, like nicotine pouches instead of turning back to smoking."

Haypp 的马库斯·林德巴尔德 (Markus Lindbald) 在评论调查结果时表示：“从更积极的角度来看，有希望看到有多少人在禁令之前尝试戒掉电子烟，或探索其他风险较低的替代品，例如尼古丁袋，而不是重新吸烟。 ”。

He added, "The experience from Sweden, which is close to becoming smoke-free, is that nicotine pouches can play a significant role in reducing smoking rates and increase public and individual health.

他补充说：“瑞典已经接近无烟化，其经验是尼古丁袋可以在降低吸烟率和改善公共和个人健康方面发挥重要作用。
