What are nicotine pouches?
Nicotine pouches are a smoke-free alternative to continued smoking. An adult user should use a pouch by placing it in the mouth for a nicotine experience. Typically, nicotine pouches do not contain tobacco. Usually, they contain nicotine extracted directly from a tobacco plant and flavourings.
How do nicotine pouches work?
Nicotine pouches are consumed orally by placing one pouch at a time in the mouth for a nicotine experience. Being an oral product, the use of nicotine pouches does not involve combustion. The absence of combustion is one key reason why an adult smoker might switch to a smoke-free product, such as nicotine pouches. Nicotine pouches typically do not produce smoke, smoke smell or ash.
Are nicotine pouches risk-free?
No, nicotine pouches are not risk-free and contain nicotine, which is addictive. The best decision any adult smoker can make is to quit tobacco and nicotine use altogether. Smoke-free products are not designed as cessation aids and are not alternatives to quitting.
Why you might like ZYN nicotine pouches
You may not be familiar with using nicotine pouches. Let us run you through the key advantages of this modern way of enjoying nicotine.
Clean, simple and less bother to others
ZYN pouches are a convenient smoke-free and tobacco-free way to enjoy nicotine for adult nicotine users, who would otherwise continue to smoke or use other nicotine products.
All you need to do is to place the small, white ZYN nicotine pouch between your upper lip and gum and enjoy your nicotine experience for around 30 minutes. Unlike cigarettes, nicotine pouches are combustion, smoke and ash free for a clean and hassle-free nicotine experience. At home, with friends, at the office, in the car or on the train, nicotine pouches can be used wherever, whenever. With no smoke, no ash, no smoke smell, and no device, they allow you to enjoy a convenient nicotine experience, without needing to go out to smoke, bothering those around you or missing a beat. No more smoke-breaks, only shared moments!
Nicotine pouches compared to snus and chewing tobacco
As nicotine pouches belong in the oral smokeless category, adult users may confuse them with snus and chewing tobacco. Both chewing tobacco and snus are products that are also used orally, and they often come in portions, too. However, despite the similarities, some key differences set the products apart.
In the case of snus, the biggest difference is the presence of tobacco. Nicotine pouches do not contain tobacco, whereas snus does. Subsequently, the dominant flavour in snus is tobacco, and there is generally less flavour variety found in snus compared to nicotine pouches. Snus could also discolour teeth, while nicotine pouches may potentially leave no teeth stains. Of course, any improvement to teeth hygiene should be substantiated on a product-by-product basis.
Adult users should chew their chewing tobacco for it to work correctly - a key difference from snus. Unlike nicotine pouches, chewing tobacco - as the name suggests - also contains tobacco.
It is important to understand snus and chewing tobacco are not risk-free, and they contain nicotine, which is addictive.

How are smoke-free alternatives different than smoking cigarettes?
The main difference between alternatives like e-cigarettes or heated tobacco and smoking cigarettes lies in exactly what makes the alternatives “smoke-free”: it is due to a lack of combustion – or burning of the tobacco.
On the other hand, smoke-free alternatives like e-cigarettes and heated tobacco eliminate combustion all together. With e-cigarettes, there is no tobacco involved, and therefore, no burning. With heated tobacco products, the tobacco sticks used in these devices are heated to specific temperatures without burning it. For example, IQOS heats tobacco generating aerosol. Nicotine pouches offer nicotine without heating or burning. The elimination of combustion in smoke-free alternatives also come with other benefits – IQOS produces no ash, and does not produce smoke. The tobacco vapor produced by IQOS dissipates more quickly than cigarette smoke, leaving less lingering smell than cigarettes.
The safest choice for an adult smoker is to quit smoking.
