1. What is the Tobacco Products Directive (TPD) and article 20 directives?

The Tobacco Product Directive (TPD) is a regulation that regulates and oversees the manufacture, sale, display (product design, packaging, etc.) of products and all tobacco and tobacco-related products such as electronic cigarette products. Currently in most EU member states, e-cigarettes are regulated and managed according to entertainment consumer products. Since 2016, e-cigarettes and related products will be subject to the TPD's article 20 regulation. The Tobacco Product Directive (TPD) is ostensibly designated for smoother tobacco products to run smoothly in the international market. In fact, many TPD provisions are set out to reduce the attractiveness of tobacco products to achieve a higher standard of protection for human health.

2. TPD test service

According to Article 20 of the Tobacco Product Directive (Tobacco Product Directive) TPD issued on April 3, 2014 in EU, reference is made to French AFNOR standard and CORESTA standard and PTS Testing Service Room Internal Methodology, Electronic Cigarette Testing, Smoke Cube Component Testing Services for Electronic Cigarette Manufacturers, Suppliers and Consumers. Laboratory internal methods have been through the linear assessment, matrix recovery, detection limit verification methods such as verification, testing equipment and equipment are in line with the requirements.

3. Electronic smoke gas composition test E-Vapor Test is as follows:

4. TPD notification service process

4.1 Register ECAS account, submit Submitter ID application form, get Submitter ID, it will take about 3 weeks;

4.2 collect the production process flow documents, nebulizer add smoke oil documentation, nicotine output stability test method, atomization test report, and use the XML tool to generate the relevant XML file;

4.3 Submit the generated XML file through the EU E-TRUSTEX system;

4.4 Member States received a notice to send INVOICE to applicants, applicants pay in accordance with INVOCIE requirements, pending the audit results.

EU RoHS Profile:

1. the EU RoHS Directive 2002/95 / EC, July 1, 2006 formally implemented.

2. the EU Parliament and the EU Council June 8, 2011 release of 2011/65 / EU on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment, the rewrite directive, RoHS2.0, entered into force on July 21, 2011 . The countries of the European Union should complete the translation of their laws within 18 months, that is, January 2, 2013, by which time the 2002/95 / EC (RoHS1.0) and all its amendments will be repealed.

3. EU Directive 2015/863 of June 4, 2015 issued by the European Union (EU) 2015/863, Dibutyl phthalate (DIBP), dibutyl phthalate (DBP), butyl benzyl phthalate (BBP) and di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) are listed in the RoHS 2.0 Annex II restricted list. RoHS 2.0 Appendix II Limit list has reached 10 kinds of substances. Electrical and electronic equipment transition period until July 22, 2019, the transition period of medical equipment and monitoring equipment to July 22, 2021. The electrical and electronic products of toys, DEHP, BBP and DBP still need to be controlled according to the requirements of Appendix XII of REACH Regulation.
