Urgent: Prevent new regulation by the back door

PAS 8855 Vaping products and vaping devices – Quality, safety and performance – SpecificationDear Customer,ADACT Medical is committed to the principle of tobacco harm reduction and supports regulations for safer products, however we feel that the contents of a new Publicly Available Specification (PAS) standard are disproportionate to the risks that vape products present.We believe the burden of complying with these standards could be crippling to small and medium sized vape companies.It would raise the bar across all parts of product testing, registration, and manufacturing. It will increase the cost of doing business dramatically and, I believe, will see most companies facing real financial stress.This new standard, whist voluntary, will absolutely influence future regulations and you only have until the 28th September to submit your comments.I've prepared a summary of our issues with these new standards which you can download by clicking here.I would very much encourage you to take the time to add your comments through the BSI portal by clicking here to defend your industry. DEADLINE: Wednesday 28 September.If you have any questions about this, please call +44 (0)1302 986 088 or email hello@adactmedical.com and we will endeavour to get back to you as soon as possible.With kind regards, Damien Bové BSc, MScChief Regulatory Officer
