Following news articles in The Sun and on the BBC News website today, we would like to make the following comments.
Firstly, as the exclusive distributors for Ruyan, who are the inventors and patent holders of the electronic cigarette, our products have been tested before being marketed here in the UK.
The safety report was carried out to an international and WHO standard.
Dr Murray Laugesen of the New Zealand Health Authority published this report.
The report clearly concludes that “Based on the manufacturer’s information, the composition of the cartridge liquid is not hazardous to health, if used as intended.”
Please note that this safety report is specific to Ruyan products only and does not relate to any other company or product. Ruyan will take legal action on any such misrepresentation.
Secondly, this product is only intended to be used by adults over the age of 18, and not for those that do not already smoke traditional cigarettes. We make this clear on our packaging.
Our products, unlike others, are primarily sold through pharmacies, where advice is available from a qualified medical professional. Here children under the age of 18 years would not be allowed to purchase our product. In bars and pubs where are product are also sold, children under the age of 18 would not be allowed inside.
If you have any queries about the safety of our products please do not hesitate to contact us via details on the website.
