Why should you use this PAS? This PAS wants to reduce the likelihood of unlicensed or rogue products being sold to the general public or children. It provides a way for VP distributors and producers to maintain the safety and quality of their products and demonstrate the same to regulators. It also benefits laboratories and other organizations that test vaping products. Among other things, the PAS covers:

Purity of e-liquid ingredients, potential contaminants from device materials and potential emissions from device operation A test solution-liquid, and an outline for the toxicological and chemical analysis of emissions Safety of batteries and chargers

NOTE: This standard is not intended to cover: products licensed as medicinal products or medical devices; “heat not burn” or other tobacco products; wireless communication features built in to vaping devices; products which can be used in or as VP but which are sold for other purposes, such as food flavourings sold in supermarkets.
