Preventing Underage Vaping
Breeze Smoke is committed to fighting underage vaping. We aim to raise awareness and fight the underage sale and distribution of e-cigarette products. We support and comply with all federal and state regulations to prevent sales to minors. The FDA’s major concern is vaping products getting into the hands of minors. Therefore, Breeze Smoke is taking the following steps to ensure our products are being sold and marketed to adults of legal smoking age:
The significant rise in youth use of e-vapor threatens to undermine the hard-fought gains made in preventing underage use of conventional tobacco products. We share the common goal of other vaping manufacturers, regulators and policy-makers to do more to reverse this trend. We support the FDA's commitment to leverage its authority and resources to take additional steps to address these new, emerging issues associated with underage use. We are committed to being part of the solution and understand that the most important way we can make sure kids don’t use any tobacco products is to limit access and appeal.

The FDA closely monitors retailer, manufacturer, importer, and distributor compliance with laws and regulations. The FDA website says, “If you mix e-liquids, make or modify vaporizers, or mix loose tobacco, and you also sell these products, you may be regulated as both a retailer and a manufacturer.” They take corrective action when violations occur.
