It is a wrapping paper reinforced for purely technical reasons, in order to align the characteristics of the smokeless tobacco products marketed in Italy with those of other European countries. The presence of this does not affect the volume of steam generated by IQOS.
Like all components used in tobacco sticks, the new wrapping paper has been carefully analyzed by Philip Morris International (PMI) to assess its suitability for use and no harmful substances released during use with IQOS have been identified.
The amount of aluminum used in tobacco sticks is very low. Therefore, neither the accidental ingestion of a tobacco stick nor the regular inhalation of the aerosol represent any toxicological risk.
In the filters of tobacco sticks it has the purpose of cooling the steam to an acceptable temperature and therefore giving the consumer a pleasant experience during inhalation
Our toxicologists have analyzed the use of PLA within the tobacco stick filter and concluded that it can be used safely for the intended purpose.
During the experience with IQOS, the filter changes its appearance, color and hardens after the end of the experience. This change is specially designed to remove excess aerosol water vapor and provide a more pleasant experience.
