1. Basic profile analysis of the e-cigarette industry: definition, industry chain
China is the world's main production base for e-cigarettes, accounting for about 95% of the world's output, of which more than 90% are for export. In recent years, countries have put forward stricter testing and certification for the import and export and sales of electronic cigarettes, prompting companies to invest more energy in product development and innovation.
E-cigarettes are a type of new tobacco products. New tobacco products are a concept that is relative to traditional smoking cigarettes.

2. Analysis of the development history of electronic cigarettes: the concept originated from abroad, and mass production and sales were first realized in China

In recent years, the policy of various countries has gradually increased the attention to electronics. At the same time, China's Shenzhen region, which has industrial advantages, has become the main production area of global e-cigarettes.

At present, the development of e-cigarette regulatory policies in various countries and regions is quite different. At present, governments in various countries have basically three regulatory ideas for e-cigarettes: one is to supervise e-cigarettes as consumer products, the other is to supervise them as tobacco, and the third is to supervise e-cigarettes. It is used as a medical supervision. The three types of supervision are different.
The e-cigarette market will exist for a long time in the future, but with the continuous strengthening of policy supervision and higher requirements for e-cigarette products, companies need to continuously strengthen the research and development of compliant and reliable products in order to survive and develop under the supervision of policies.
