Aquios Lab
Aquios Labs, a vaping company founded by a team of industry veterans with extensive expertise, is set to make waves at InterTabac 2023 with their revolutionary water-based vaping technology and their flagship product, Aquios Bar.
Aquios Labs boasts a small yet highly experienced team, comprising engineers, product development managers, production managers, and a world-class compliance team. With decades of combined experience in the vaping industry, the Aquios Labs team covers a diverse range of skill sets necessary for pushing the boundaries of vaping technology.
At the forefront of their groundbreaking innovation is a first-generation water-based vaping technology developed by Aquios Labs. Unlike traditional vaping products, this enables the use of up to 30% water content in e-liquids, thanks to Aquios Labs’ special e-liquid formulation process and hardware design. This break-through allows for a smoother vapor experience, faster nicotine satisfaction, purer flavors, and reduced dehydration, making it particularly appealing for individuals transitioning from combustible tobacco.
Aquios Labs’ flagship product, Aquios Bar, embodies the cutting-edge water-based technology. This simple yet powerful disposable vaping device offers a unique proposition to the market. Notably, Aquios Bar is designed with sustainability in mind. Unlike other dis-posable devices, it features a reinforced card shell, significantly reducing single-use plastics. Furthermore, after use, the Aquios Bar can be easily disassembled by the customer for recycling, minimizing its environmental impact.
The Aquios Labs team is excited to showcase their technology at InterTabac 2023 and provide visitors with an opportunity to experience the unique benefits of Aquios Bar firsthand. Their water-based vaping technology represents a significant leap forward in the industry, delivering an enhanced vaping experience that combines smoothness, satisfaction, and purity.
Already making strides in the market, Aquios Labs has forged a partnership with MARROCS GmbH, a highly regarded German distributor. With their collaboration underway, Aquios Labs aims to expand its presence across Germany and Europe, forging strategic alliances to make their innovative products more accessible to vaping enthusiasts.
As Aquios Labs’ technology is already being adopted by various brands worldwide, the team eagerly anticipates engaging with visitors at InterTabac and sharing the advantages of their ground-breaking technology and the unique sustainability features of Aquios Bar.

Kensin Bradley Global Enterprises
Kensin Bradly Global Enterprises’ core business is to provide and partner with international tobacco companies in springboarding HNB product development. Using its granular tobacco stick (GTS) as the core product, Kensin Bradly is launching GTS internationally as well as continuously promoting brands from China Tobacco Anhui. Brands under Kensin Bradly’s purview would be Toop, Dubliss and IHEA. Kensin Bradly also provides HNB solutions for the mass market, as well as international ICT patented solutions which can be shared with interested stake holders.
IHEA uses infrared light with a wave-length range of 2.5 to 14.5 μm to produce optimum heating. Because the heat emitter does not directly come in contact with the tobacco particles, it provides quick, even, and efficient heating while avoiding the potential release of harmful substances. Furthermore, China Tobacco Anhui created a unique powdered tobacco formula specifically for the heat sticks in order to complement the IHEA infrared heating process.
Another advantage of IHEA is that cleaning the heating chamber frequently and removing tar residues are no longer necessary. The chamber just needs to be cleaned once a week simply by wiping and swabbing.
The device’s intelligent system design allows for more accurate temperature control as well as real-time recording of the user’s smoking patterns. IHEA versions that are currently in use do not permit user-initiated temperature modifications. The temperature within the chamber does not rise above 325 degrees Celsius, however the temperature control is exclusively calibrated for the granulated tobacco heat sticks.
Visitors at Kensin Bradly’s booth will be able to learn more about its Toop granulated tobacco heatsticks and the IHEA third generation contact-less heating device.
