Puff's vending machines

If you sell products for smokers, you surely know that having puff vending machines today represents a highly profitable solution for your point of sale. We have already dedicated a blog article to puff vending machines, which you can find at the following link.

After the evident sales boom of disposable e‑cigarettes, it follows that installing a 24/7 vending machine for puff sales inside your retail outlet can be a very smart move. In this article we will explain why you too should consider this type of business choice.

The “Puffs”: disposable electronic cigarettes

But what are Puffs, and where does the name come from?

When you see “puff vending machines,” you might wonder what this name actually means. The term “Puff” is the English translation of “puff” or “puff,” referring to the number of puffs you take when vaping your e‑cigarette. Today this word is used to identify disposable e‑cigarettes, to distinguish them from other types of cigarettes on the market. It is easy to get confused, because at first glance a Puff looks just like a regular vape, not like a cigarette that you throw away after use.

Ma come funzionano le Puff?

They are small disposable vaporizers that contain a limited amount of liquid in a small tank. Disposable e‑cigarettes can contain a more or less high percentage of nicotine, and some versions are even nicotine‑free. These devices include a tiny internal vaporizer that runs on a small battery capable of lasting only a limited number of puffs. Puffs can last for 700–800 puffs, and in some countries can reach up to 5,000. The most widespread Puff brand in our country is Elf Bar, so much that some people use this name as a synonym for Puff.

But how were these e-cigarettes designed?

If you have ever come across vending machines for puff, you have probably wondered how products of this kind came to be designed. At first, Puff devices were conceived by manufacturers as sample units containing a limited amount of liquid, created solely for shop owners to taste different flavours before deciding which liquids to purchase for their vapes. However, Puff devices were not ordinary sample cigarettes: they were colourful, attractive and easy to use, functioning without charging or refilling once opened. In short, it became clear that this could be a product highly appreciated not only by retailers, but also by end consumers. For this reason, Puff units were launched into the retail market and achieved immediate results. Today, disposable e‑cigarettes are widespread in our country and across most of Europe, with only a few exceptions. At this link you can find a list of countries where Puff sale is legal and where it is prohibited.

Disposable CBD e-cigarettes

If you already follow our blog and the world of Harvin, the leading Italian company in the production of hemp‑light vending machines, you are probably wondering: have CBD‑infused disposable e‑cigarettes been invented as well? The answer is obviously yes. In Italy at the moment there are only vending machines for nicotine‑based puff, but it is hoped that machines for CBD‑puff will soon become available too.
In Europe, it is enough to browse the web to see that this product is already widespread in France, where CBD liquids may currently be sold with no restrictions, as long as they comply with THC limits (below 0.2–0.3%). The same applies to Switzerland, where puff with a high pulse count—often 2,000 puffs or more—and high‑CBD content are commonly sold.
In Italy the situation remains delicate: even though CBD‑based puff derived from hemp‑light are technically available on the market, current legislation implicitly forbids their production and human consumption. This is because hemp‑light is legally tolerated in Italy only for “technical and collectible” use, not as a product designed for consumption, despite the reality that it is widely used that way. As long as the Italian government does not clarify the possibility of free consumption of hemp‑light, the sale of CBD‑based disposable e‑cigarettes in Italy will remain legally risky.
