So, Does Heated Tobacco Burn?

Words like burn, combustion, vapor and temperature control are bandied about all the time. It can help to go back to basics with a quick look at the three most popular styles of ‘smoking’ that dominate tobacco enjoyment today:

• Cigarettes – these have been around for decades. What temperature does tobacco burn at, is the thing to think about? On average, cigarette tobacco temperature reaches 800°C when you light one. The tobacco and its wrapping paper burn down and that process of tobacco combustion produces the strong smell, smoke, and ash you’re probably familiar with.

• Vaping devices – there’s an irony to the fact that these were the first products described as an alternative to smoking because they don’t actually use any tobacco. Vaping, in fact, is an umbrella phrase for all sorts of things, from e-cigarettes to mods and pods, all of which work with e-liquids.
  
  So, what is temperature control vaping? This is a tech solution generally used by experienced vapers so that you can set your own temperature limits anywhere between 100°C to 315°C.

• Heated tobacco – devices like Ploom X Advanced are the new smoking alternatives. They’ve been designed to do away with smoke and ash and to leave less tobacco smell² – not only for your potential benefit but also as the considerate thing to do for the people around you. Ploom X Advanced works with our tobacco sticks and the headline here is that these are heated, not burned.

At Ploom, we’ve focused on power, not fire. That has turned the way you can enjoy tobacco taste on its head. Ploom X Advanced HeatFlow technology generates a heated tobacco temperature of 316°C. By raising the temperature of our tobacco sticks without burning them, all that’s released is rich tobacco taste and the gentle aroma of tobacco.

The words burn and heated tobacco combustion don’t apply when talking about Ploom X Advanced and nor do smoke and ash. That’s great news if you’re working from your home office and want to say goodbye to smoke fog and overspilling ashtrays. 

Ploom X Advanced is the modern approach to tobacco experience. The device is also packed with the kind of features you’d expect from an innovative piece of technology. Like IntuiTouch, which gives you LED notifications, haptic feedback and makes it simple to use.

With Ploom X Advanced the convenience comes from not having to worry about the smoke you are producing. It produces less tobacco smell² vs a cigarette, so you and everyone around you will appreciate that it’s more suited to indoor use and less intrusive to those around you.
