Everything You Need to Know About Vape Juice Ingredients
Vape juice, also known as e-liquid, is the essential component that delivers the flavorful and satisfying experience vapers crave. But do you know what’s really inside that bottle? Understanding the ingredients in your e-liquid is crucial for ensuring both safety and quality, especially in today’s regulated market. At Edge Vapes, we are committed to providing only the best vape liquids that meet the highest standards of quality and safety, which is why every liquid we sell is MHRA-registered.
Here’s everything you need to know about what goes into vape juice and why choosing MHRA-registered liquids matters.
The Core Ingredients in Vape Juice
Vape juice is typically made up of a few core ingredients, each contributing to the overall experience:
-
Propylene Glycol (PG): A key component in e-liquids, propylene glycol is a synthetic compound used in a variety of products, from food to cosmetics. In vape juice, it serves as a carrier for the flavour and nicotine. PG provides a strong throat hit, which many vapers associate with the sensation of smoking.
-
Vegetable Glycerin (VG): Another main ingredient, vegetable glycerin is a natural, plant-based substance that adds thickness and sweetness to the vape juice. VG is responsible for producing dense vapour clouds, making it popular among cloud chasers and those who enjoy a smoother inhale.
-
Nicotine: For those using vape products as a smoking alternative, nicotine is an important component. E-liquids come in a variety of nicotine strengths, allowing vapers to control their intake. Whether you’re a heavy smoker looking to quit or just enjoy the occasional hit, you can find an e-liquid that meets your needs.
-
Flavourings: Vape juices come in an endless array of flavours, from traditional tobacco and menthol to fruity, dessert, and even candy-inspired blends. These food-grade flavourings are the element that allows you to customise your vaping experience, ensuring it never gets boring.
Why MHRA-Registration Matters
In the UK, vaping products are tightly regulated by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA). This regulation ensures that all e-liquids sold meet strict safety and quality standards. At Edge Vapes, we only stock e-liquids that are fully MHRA-registered, meaning that each product has undergone extensive testing and complies with UK Tobacco Products Directive (TPD) requirements.
Here’s why that matters:
-
Guaranteed Compliance with Safety Standards When you buy MHRA-registered vape juice from Edge Vapes, you’re assured that it has passed rigorous safety assessments. This means every ingredient has been reviewed to ensure it’s safe for inhalation, and each product contains no harmful levels of chemicals.
-
Nicotine Concentration Limits MHRA regulations limit the nicotine concentration in e-liquids to 20mg/ml for safety reasons. This helps prevent overconsumption and reduces the risk of nicotine poisoning, especially for new vapers. Edge Vapes’ e-liquids adhere to these limits, giving you peace of mind while enjoying your vaping experience.
-
Child-Resistant Packaging All MHRA-registered products must use child-proof packaging to prevent accidental ingestion by children, which is another layer of safety our customers can trust. Additionally, all packaging must display health warnings and ingredient information, ensuring you know exactly what you’re vaping.
-
TPD-Compliance on Bottle Sizes Under TPD regulations, vape liquids containing nicotine are restricted to 10ml bottles. This rule aims to ensure that users do not over-consume nicotine unintentionally. Edge Vapes follows these regulations to the letter, offering convenient and compliant bottle sizes.
Quality Ingredients, No Compromise
At Edge Vapes, our commitment to quality goes beyond just meeting regulations. We carefully select e-liquids that use high-grade, food-safe ingredients. Our vape juices contain no harsh chemicals, and every bottle is made from pharmaceutical-grade nicotine and flavourings, ensuring a smooth and satisfying vape every time.
Many e-liquids also include organic ingredients and are free from unnecessary additives like diacetyl, which has been linked to lung damage in other vaping products. Choosing vape juices from Edge Vapes means you’re not only getting top-tier flavours but also a safe and enjoyable experience every time.
What You Won’t Find in Edge Vapes Liquids
The market is full of questionable e-liquids from unregulated sources, and they can contain harmful substances like:
-
Diacetyl: This chemical, used in food flavourings, has been linked to a serious lung condition known as “popcorn lung”. All MHRA-registered e-liquids, like those sold at Edge Vapes, are free from diacetyl and other harmful additives
Home. -
THC Oils and Vitamin E Acetate: These have been linked to dangerous lung conditions, particularly in the US where unregulated THC vaping products led to the EVALI outbreak. All Edge Vapes products are THC-free, ensuring safety.
