Las compañías predecesoras de Juul, Ploom Inc y Pax Labs, lanzaron varios dispositivos de vapeo antes del cigarrillo electrónico Juul. 

Las compañías predecesoras de Juul, Ploom Inc y Pax Labs, lanzaron varios dispositivos de vapeo antes del cigarrillo electrónico Juul. 

Un porcentaje creciente de estudiantes de secundaria informan haber usado cigarrillos electrónicos en los últimos 30 días. 

Los datos de una encuesta muestran que a los estudiantes de secundaria les gustan mucho más los sabores de frutas, menta y dulces de los líquidos de nicotina de los cigarrillos electrónicos que los sabores de tabaco. 

El cuadro muestra como la fórmula patentada por Juul llega con la nicotina mucho más rápido que otros dispositivos previos de vapeo y los cigarrillos Pall Mall. 

A growing percentage of high school students report using e-cigarettes within the last 30 days. 

A chart filed with the patent on Juul’s breakthrough nicotine liquid shows how the formula delivers much more nicotine than earlier vaping devices – and more than a Pall Mall cigarette. 

In just two years, Juul captured 40% of the U.S. e-cigarette market. 

High school students like fruit, mint and candy flavors of e-cigarette nicotine liquids far more than tobacco flavors, survey data shows. Regulators have pressured Juul and other vaping device makers to stop offering flavors that appeal to children. 

Juul’s predecessor companies, Ploom Inc and Pax Labs, released several vaping devices before the Juul e-cigarette.
