Superdrug To Halt Sales Of Single-use Vapes In Response To Environmental Concerns

Superdrug, a prominent health and beauty retailer, has revealed its plans to discontinue the sale of single-use vapes in all of its stores across the United Kingdom and Ireland. This decision affects popular brands such as Vuse Go and Flavaah Bars, with Superdrug aiming to completely clear its stock of these products by the end of the year.

According to Superdrug, it currently sells an average of 1,300 units of single-use vapes per week in its physical stores but does not offer them for sale online. This move follows recent research conducted by the recycling campaign group Material Focus, which unveiled a staggering statistic: five million disposable vapes are discarded each week in the UK, marking a fourfold increase over the past year.
