NICOTINE POUCH USE ON THE RISE
Discreet, smokeless and tobacco-free*, it’s easy to see why nicotine pouches like VELO have become so popular among nicotine users across the world. It’s an upward trajectory that shows no sign of slowing down.
-- They contain 99% less toxicants** than cigarettes --
Considering that smoking cigarettes have became, non-tobacco products give users an alternative outlet without the dangers or the lingering smell that smoking leaves on hair and clothes. Another plus is that there is no acrid smoke or smelly ashtrays to contend with.
One of the best nicotine pouches on the market, VELO is made from high-quality plant-based ingredients including pharmaceutical-grade nicotine, water, flavourings and sweetener – and has been designed to offer users convenience, enjoyment and safety.
VELO comes in six, great-tasting fruit and mint flavours, and three nicotine strengths – mild, medium and strong – and they won’t leave you with bad breath.
ARE NICOTINE POUCHES THE SAME AS SNUS?
Not at all. Snus refers to a range of traditional oral tobacco products popular primarily in some parts of the United States and Scandinavia. Consisting mainly of moist tobacco powder Snus is available either loose or in tiny pouches, which may be where the confusion creeps in. It’s important to remember that, unlike snus, nicotine pouches contain no tobacco.

CAN NICOTINE POUCHES BE CHEWED?
Nicotine pouches are not meant to be sucked, chewed, spat out or swallowed. They are intended to be placed between your upper lip and your gum. The nicotine is then slowly absorbed through your gum over 30 minutes whereafter the pouch should be removed and discarded responsibly.
CAN I REUSE MY NICOTINE POUCHES?
No. Each VELO nicotine pouch is designed for a single 30-minute use.
ARE NICOTINE POUCHES SAFE FOR CHILDREN TO USE?
No. Nicotine is an addictive substance and even the best nicotine pouches like VELO – while potentially less harmful than smoking – are intended for adult use. In South Africa nicotine and tobacco products, including nicotine pouches, are not permitted for sale to under-18s.
IS THE USE OF NICOTINE POUCHES LEGAL?
Nicotine pouches are legal in South Africa. However new laws around smoking, tobacco and nicotine use are in the pipeline for South African users and the amended Tobacco Products and Electronic Delivery Systems Control Bill 2021 is currently before Parliament. The Bill was originally submitted for comment back in 2018 but has since been expanded to include novel products including oral nicotine pouches like VELO.
