Guide: What Your GP Should Put on a Prescription

Posted on May 5, 2022May 6, 2022 by leon

6 months after the October 1 Nicotine Regulation in Australia, the percentage of Vapers who has obtained a valid prescription still remains at a low number. According to our recently conducted survey, the reasons are mainly due to; 1). Overstocking made before the regulation took effect, 2). Lack of more information how to get a script, 3). The cost involved in getting it, and 4). Some doctors does not know what to fill in a prescription.

As a result, getting a prescription seemed to be quite a hurdle for many Vapers to obtain. A lot of our clients are usually asking how to get one or what exactly a prescription looks like. So, we made sure we have all the answers.

We partnered with Vape Scripts Australia to ensure getting a prescription is fast and easy with a very minimal clinic fee of $60AUD. Here’s the link on how to get an appointment: https://www.hiliqau.com/get-script

You can also obtain a valid Prescription through your family doctor for free or trusted general practitioner at a lower charge. In case they are not familiar on what details to put out in the prescription, here’s a guide:

1. The amount you vape
Your prescription should contain the amount in volume (ML) that you want to import.

2. The strength you vape
Your doctor needs to note a specific density of nicotine or a range of strength on your prescription, for example, 6mg to 20mg for e-liquids, or 100mg for bases.

3. The length of your script
Your prescriptions should contain a valid time-period, which can be up to a 12-month.

4. The repeats on your script
Your prescriptions should contain the number of times you can use it (Repeats) every 3 months, in one full year.

5. The Information of the Prescriber
Your GP needs to put his or her signature, prescriber ID and contact information beside its issuance date.

New E-cig Regulation in China

Posted on April 13, 2022April 14, 2022 by leon

China’s SMTA to implement New E-cig Measures on May 1, 2022

China’s vape industry has been hit with another round of legislation. The State Tobacco Monopoly Administration, abbreviated as STMA, has released new electronic cigarette measures effective on May 1, 2022. The regulation that was drafted last year and officially announced and introduced to the public on March 11 applies to companies that engage in the manufacture and operation of electronic cigarette(ecig) products within China and cover all types of vaping products.

1.Manufacture and Quality

The local tobacco administrative departments should conduct regular and ad-hoc inspections of companies and individuals with licenses to sell ecig products.
The ecig brand owners shall manage and supervise the manufacturers’ behavior and be responsible for the quality of the products
A unified ecig product traceability system needs to be established to strengthen the management from production to sale
Companies must receive approval and obtain a license before they can establish businesses to manufacture e-cigarettes; Manufacturers must reapply for a license if their scope of business changes and obtain approval from the STMA if they intend to expand production capacity

2.Sales and Marketing

All ecig transactions should ONLY take place on the nation’s unified ecig management platform
Ecig wholesalers shall not provide ecig products to businesses or individuals that are not qualified to engage in ecig retail business; The tobacco products used by manufacturers to produce e-cigarette products and nicotine must be purchased from a company with the right to operate and may not be purchased from an illegal seller.
It is prohibited to hold exhibitions, forums, expositions, etc. to promote ecig products
ONLY tobacco flavors are allowed, other flavours are banned
Open rather than closed devices are prohibited, like refillable/ DIY pods
The current ecig specialty stores, such as stores of certain ecig brands, shall not exist. Ecig stores is not able to sell only one type/brand of ecig products but will have to sell a collection of multiple types/brands of ecig products
Only companies that already have tobacco wholesale licenses are qualified to be engaged in ecig wholesale business
There will be a limit on the shipment of ecig products. However, the exact limit is vague and not specified in the document
Ecig retailers may not be located close to any schools for minors to whom the ecig products are not allowed to be sold. It is also prohibited to sell ecig products through any self-service mechanism like self-vending machines

3.Cross-border Trade

The packaging of ecig products exclusively for export shall meet the requirements set by the STMA
Ecig products that are not sold in China and are only for export shall comply with the regulations of the destination country or region; If there are no specific regulations there, they shall comply with the regulations in China
Imported vape products can also only be sold to domestic wholesalers or producers through the unified ecig transaction platform. Overseas suppliers of ecig products are also allowed to sell products to domestic manufacturers or wholesalers only through this channel.

Summary and Insights

This regulation mainly applies to businesses that conduct activities within China
Regulation about nonnicotine eliquid is not specified in this file. So there exists a vague explanation about 0% nicotine products. This shows that 0% nicotine products are in grey area
The vaping products discussed in this document also cover “other new tobacco products“, including those of solid form
The new measures might lead to an uncertain future and significantly less profit for the domestic vaping market in China
The measures only explicitly prohibit the sale of flavored vapes in China but did not mention the production or export of flavored juices. This will leave room for more explanation on export business. According to many experts, the Chinese government encourages companies that focus on export business
The ecig transaction platform could be a major headwind for the vaping industry. The platform indicates that e-cigarettes will be subject to the same pricing and quota requirements as traditional tobacco products
The requirements of having an adequate amount of capital and facilities are immense entry barriers for new and small players. This is extremely beneficial to those established players
This regulation favours the notion that consumers should get more reliable, higher-quality, and safer products from the upstream producers and sellers who are expected to take more responsibility

HILIQ IS REACH COMPLIANT! What does it mean for you?

Posted on March 6, 2021March 8, 2021 by Danilo Delos Santos

In the Nicotine industry, there are only a few companies who are able to comply with this highly coveted and particularly important registration in Europe. Being able to be a REACH-compliant company gives an extra boost in our professional and technical confidence as to comply with this specific regulation, we had to identify and manage risks linked to the substances we produce and sell within the EU as well as in the World.

REACH is a shortcut for these terms: Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemicals. REACH is a stringent regulation of the European Union taking in place to improve the protection of human health as well as the environment from the risks that can be posed by chemicals. It has been existing since June 2007 and has been able to continually elevate the competitiveness of the Chemical industry in Europe as well as becoming a standard for the World.

What does it mean for consumers?

REACH applies, if not all, to most of the chemicals we use in our daily lives.
Us, being REACH compliant guarantees our clients’ utmost safety as we have to standardize not only our internal production processes but also the external ones such as the packaging, labeling, and transportation of the product. The SDS is also standardized in a way it is easy to understand and contains all the needed data.

Companies which are possessing REACH are very limited not only because it is a tedious process but also because you have to produce at least 1 tonne per year of the product and market it accordingly. HILIQ produces tonne and tonnes of Nicotine per year marketed within the EU and the World.

HILIQ REACH registration number is 01-2120066934-47-0008. Applied under the Nicotine substances tab with Active current registration status. You can visit echa.europa.eu for more information.

Titans of Vaping – The Vaping Industry is Making More Billionaires

Posted on February 20, 2021February 20, 2021 by Danilo Delos Santos

The growing global popularity of vaping helped China mint many billionaires from the vaping device industry.

Shares in Smoore International Holdings as of January 29, 2021, are at HK$75.76 more than six times their IPO price of HK$12.40. That leaves Smoore’s valuation at nearly $57 billion USD while the CEO of the company is now worth a whopping $19.7 billion USD, not to mention Smoore’s co-founder Xiong Shaoming is also a billionaire.[1]

China’s largest e-cigarette company debuted in the US stock market last month, turning founder Wang Ying going by the name Kate Wang, into an overnight billionaire. Just after the debut, Chinese media reported that the young billionaire now boasted an estimated net worth of US$24.8 billion determined by the current stock price. RELX opened its shares at US$22.34, almost twice their initial offering IPO of US$12 per share.[2]

These 2 companies are the backbones of the device vaping market in China as well as around the world and are interdependent with one and another. Indeed, considerably the Titans of Vaping. SMOORE is believed to be the world’s largest manufacturer of vaping devices owning several popular brand names such as VAPORESSO (with which HiLIQ has been partnering for years) and FEELM and manufacturing for RELX and supplying components or OEM services to companies like Japan Tobacco, British American Tobacco, and NJOY.[3]

HiLIQ, being one of the world’s leading manufacturers and suppliers of nicotine solutions is actively working to develop and expand technologically and scientifically to continuously provide its partners and consumers a better alternative to smoking. Among its popular offerings are professional cut Nicotine solutions, Cooling agent and Flavors concentrates, as well as it very own, NicoBacco.

HILIQ is committed to assist, support and work hand-in-hand with Chinese vaping device manufacturers as well as Global e-liquids manufacturers to get access to the best raw materials possible for safe and dedicated uses in the Vaping arena.

Is Blogging Dead?

Posted on January 23, 2021January 23, 2021 by Danilo Delos Santos

It was back in 2016 when we had our last write up for this Blog. It feels just a few months ago actually, but it was that looong since we last updated it.

4 years have gone and a lot of things have changed since then. With the recent boom of so many new platforms on social media where people posts not only photos and short video clips, a new trend of doing Lives and posting Video Diaries has become a new sensation, both for the young and the old.

I must say, Vlogging is in!

But does that really mean, Blogging is out?

While I acknowledge more people are inclined to watch than to read as the first is easier, faster, and more fun to do than the latter, I’d like to go back to the basics and still do a little traditional way of putting up content. Content that matters to the industry. Content that inspires our users. Or just content that lights up my bulb – and potentially yours too!

I put up a task to myself to create weekly stories for the blog – and this is with the hopes to spark your interest. Help me in the pursuit to write relatable stories, interesting subjects, and engaging discussions.

Traditional writing is not done.
There are still people who have time to read and genuinely enjoy it.

As we re-open our Blog in this highly progressive time, we are opening our doors to your ideas and opinions. We are open for commissioned articles and guest posts. HILIQ customers and readers are more than welcome to share content for our growing community – and we’re more than happy to be your avenue to be read and be heard.

New blog entries will be posted and updated every Saturday.
For interested contributors, please send your work to danilo@hiliq.com.
Approved contents will be given a token of appreciation in the HILIQ products form.

Indulge in a new experience by crafting your favorite e-liquid free from Tobacco Nicotine!
