VELO’s Nicotine Pouch Strength Guide

If you’re new to nicotine pouches, you might ponder the meaning of the numbers on each can. They represent the strength of nicotine inside each pouch and usually range between 4mg and 17mg. In VELO’s world, nicotine strength is also illustrated using a handy dot system. But how does it work? Keep reading to learn about nicotine strengths in VELO pouches.

What is nicotine?

Nicotine is a chemical compound and stimulant that comes from plants, particularly the leaves of the tobacco plant. Synthetic nicotine is used in vaping devices and nicotine pouches; this pharmaceutical-grate nicotine polymer is available in different strengths.

What are nicotine pouches?

Nicotine pouches are small fabric sacks containing pharmaceutical-grade nicotine polymer, water, sweeteners and flavourings. They’re tobacco-free and provide adult nicotine consumers with nicotine without heat, ash or smoke*.

They’re designed for use almost anywhere and any time; tuck a pouch between your lip and gum for up to 30 minutes while nicotine is released.

What does nicotine strength mean?

Nicotine strength is the concentration of nicotine, in this case, inside each VELO pouch. The availability of various strengths means consumers who choose nicotine pouches can decide the most suitable option. 
For example, those with significant nicotine experience might want to select a strong nicotine pouch from VELO’s ULTRA or MAX range. If you’re a light nicotine consumer, a pouch of lower-strength pouches may be a better option.

What are the different VELO nicotine strengths?

If you’re shopping for VELO nicotine pouches, look at the nicotine strength on the packaging to ensure you choose what’s best suited to you. VELO uses a dot system to illustrate different nicotine strengths. You can also find the strength in milligrams (mg) printed on each can.
