Emissions Testing
All nicotine-containing e-liquids must undergo carbonyl emissions testing and be submitted to the MHRA before they can be legally placed on the UK market. At AFS, we have the equipment, expertise and regulatory knowledge to manage this process efficiently and accurately for our customers.
Our in-house laboratory supports brands at every stage — from testing through to compliant submission — ensuring your products meet regulatory requirements without unnecessary delays.
Why Test With AFS?
Regulatory Background
Part 6 of the Tobacco and Related Products Regulations 2016 (TRPR) places a legal obligation on manufacturers and importers of electronic cigarettes to notify the relevant competent authorities before products are marketed.
Regulation 31(3)(b) requires notifications to include a list of emissions produced during product use. Emissions testing must be carried out using a standardised puffing regime that reflects expected consumer use.
AFS supports customers in meeting these obligations through a clear, structured and regulator-aligned testing process.
