Survey Highlights Ban Impact

The UK will ban disposable vapes from June 2025, sparking concerns of a growing black market. Vape Superstore's survey reveals that many vapers will stock up before the ban, and some may turn to the black market or return to smoking. The Government justifies the ban to protect youth, but it may push adults back to smoking. Encouraging the shift to refillable vapes can help mitigate negative impacts. Additionally, there are worries about a potential ban on sweet e-liquid flavors. Vape Superstore aims to guide vapers towards sustainable options like refillable vapes. Overall, the ban's impact on adult vapers and the vaping market remains uncertain.


12.90% of the adult population are current smokers. There are approximately 7.2 million current smokers in United Kingdom 14.60% of men are current smokers but only 11.20% of women.
