Heat-not-burn tobacco products or smokeless products are electronic gadgets containing tobacco with low nicotine content and fewer chemicals. These products are designed to heat tobacco without combustion, producing an aerosol containing fewer harmful chemicals than traditional cigarettes. These products are a smoking alternative that heats rather than burns tobacco to generate an inhalable aerosol. Unlike traditional cigarettes, heat-not-burn tobacco products generate minimal smoke and do not produce ash, offering a smokeless experience that can be more convenient and less intrusive to others in the surrounding environment. Governments worldwide are increasingly implementing cigarette prohibition acts and imposing higher taxes to tackle public health issues which have fueled the market growth. Rising awareness regarding the harmful side effects of traditional cigarettes has led to a significant shift in public perception that significantly drives the market. However, the strict regulations on the distribution of these products and the rising adoption of e-cigarettes have restricted the adoption of heat-not-burn tobacco products. Online sales and marketing promotions for heat-not-burn tobacco products have been experiencing significant growth in recent years, which is expected to create a lucrative opportunity in the forecast period.
