The ELFBAR company has reported that its recently developed nicotine reduction product — known as the ELFA PRO Nicotine Reduction Kit — has received recognition from three separate international design award bodies, including the Pentawards, the Red Dot Award*, and the London Design Awards.
The pod-based system, which is intended for a three-month usage cycle, is boasted as "the first ever of its kind created to help adult smokers and vapers quit nicotine for good." The ELFA PRO Nicotine Reduction Kit's design strategy emphasizes visual and tactile minimalism by employing uncoated paper materials and a subdued color palette for its packaging. The system is segmented into three distinct phases that correspond to a gradual decrease in nicotine concentration from two percent to zero.
