Quality Testing for Nicotine Pouch Manufacturing
In the nicotine pouch industry, quality is the cornerstone of a brand’s long-term development. With a humble mindset, HENO has been refining its quality consistently, learning from industry leaders like ZYN and VELO, and striving to provide global customers with comprehensive end-to-end solutions for next-generation nicotine pouches that are purer, more stable, and compliant.
On the raw material front, HENO relies on a 73,757-square-meter modern factory with an annual capacity of 600 tons of natural L-nicotine. We delve into advanced technologies and purification processes such as supercritical fluid extraction and molecular distillation, aiming to lay a solid foundation for the purity and stability of raw materials. Derived from herbal plants, the L-nicotine isomer structure is more compatible with the human physiological environment, striving to make the product more suitable for metabolic and physiological response needs.
In the production process, we strictly adhere to GMP standards and adopt fully automated production lines in Class 100,000 clean workshops for batching, mixing, filling, and packaging. We endeavor to ensure that the weight, nicotine content, and flavor intensity of each pouch are consistent, eliminating microbial contamination. From raw material warehousing to finished product delivery, we have established over 256 key quality control points. Equipped with precision instruments such as high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), we conduct strict monitoring of core indicators, aiming to make each batch of products meet stringent international quality standards such as the EU TPD and US PMTA.
As a high-tech enterprise focusing on R&D rather than a simple processing plant, HENO is well aware that continuous progress is essential. Therefore, we always stand as a technical partner to support our customers: our professional regulatory affairs team has completed the submission and registration of documents with the US FDA and EU TPD, continuously tracks regulatory dynamics in major global markets (such as the EU, US, and Southeast Asia), assists customers in preparing necessary registration documents including product ingredient lists and toxicology reports, and helps products successfully enter target markets. We open our laboratories to undertake customized needs, jointly tackle technical challenges and develop differentiated products with customers, hoping to help customer brands gain a steady foothold in the international market.
With profound respect, HENO continues to polish its raw material science, flavor technology, and quality management. We are willing to provide comprehensive support to brand partners with a humble and pragmatic attitude, work hand in hand with industry peers, and promote the steady development of the nicotine pouch industry towards a safer, healthier, and more enjoyable direction.
