Illegal Chinese vapes which are 'appealing to a child' seized in Nottingham raids

Illegal vape products worth thousands of pounds have been seized during an operation across Nottingham. Trading Standards officers in the city bagged up hundreds of vaping products - some of which contain five times the legal amount of nicotine and e-liquid.

The branded vape bars collected have a street value close to £8,000. The operation involved eight separate premises across the city, although they have not been named.

The average vape product carried up to 1,500 uses – the equivalent of smoking more than 50 cigarettes. One particular brand of the disposable, single-use vapes seized was equal to more than 100 cigarettes.
