About Vibrant Vapours:
The Vibrant Vapours headquarters is at 31 King Street, Carmarthen, SA31 1BS
The firm also has shops in Hereford and Swansea.
Electronic cigarettes have been developed to provide traditional cigarette smokers with the feeling of smoking, but without the dangerous side effects which come from the burning of tobacco.
An electronic cigarettes battery powers an atomizer which heats a liquid. This liquid contains Nicotine, propylene glycol and vegetable glycerine to create a smoke like vapour. This vapour uses the liquid combined with food dye flavourings to provide an experience similar to smoking a traditional cigarette, but without the harmful by-products.
Propylene glycol is the base liquid which provides the “hit” this has been deemed to be “safe” by the World Health Organisation. It is also used in a number of products ranging from asthmatic nebulisers to smoke machines in night clubs and stage shows.
Vibrant Vapours’ products are exempt from smoking ban as no tobacco is lit or used in the products.
Scientific research so far has concluded that electronic cigarettes are healthier than traditional cigarettes. One study has concluded that the risks are equivalent to those of using nicotine patches. All of the electronic cigarettes sold by Vibrant Vapours are not for the use of those under 18 and they should always be kept away from children. They are not recommended for those who are pregnant or breast feeding due to them containing nicotine, in the same way cigarettes would not be recommended.
The Cabinet Office published a report in 2011 recommending that electronic cigarettes should become more widely available in the UK as they are preferable to using traditional tobacco products.
