Proudly announcing the official launch ceremony of the Shenzhen Electronic Vaporizer Industry Association \u2013 SEVIA(USA), a strong new voice for the vaping industry!<\/p>\n

SEVIA(USA) is a newly registered American vaping association that will act as the representative in the United States of America for top China e-cig and vaporizer manufacturers including Aspire, Innokin, Kanger, & SMOK and more.<\/p>\n

On January 20th 2016 over 100 ecig manufacturers came together at a conference in Shenzhen China to commit their resources and financial support in the fight against unfair and burdensome FDA regulations.<\/p>\n

SEVIA USA was created and looking forward to assisting various advocacy and litigation groups in the US.<\/p>\n

Mission Statement :<\/p>\n

1) Congress SHOULD NOT regulate vapor products as tobacco products, considering these products DO NOT actually contain tobacco leaf.<\/p>\n

2) The FDA should modify the grandfather date to allow products currently on the market in order to avoid the Pre Market Tobacco Application (PMTA) process.<\/p>\n

3) The FDA should create a streamlined process that allows companies to submit more reasonable applications for the vapor market.<\/p>\n

We have formed a coalition of responsible Chinese electronic cigarette manufacturers concentrating our financial efforts and resources to keep vapor products affordable, accessible and with the variety needed in order to help smokers transition to a less harmful alternative.<\/p>\n

Moreover looking forward to a regulatory path we want to enforce industry standards to assure consumers safety and confidence in Chinese manufacturing.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
