More Brands Move Toward “U.S.-Made” Disposables
In November 2025, brands including SKE, FASTA, and NEXA successively introduced “U.S.-made” disposable e-cigarette products:
- SKE launched the V-BOT disposable, promoted on its official website as “U.S.-made” with domestic blending and filling.
- FASTA introduced the FASTA ALIEN 51K on U.S. online channels; distributor Mi-Pod stated the device is “assembled and filled in the U.S.” and marked as compliant with Texas vapor product registration requirements.
- NEXA released the NEXA FLEX disposable, marketed as “U.S.-made” and developed specifically for U.S. adult vapor consumers.
In a special report published in early November — “Special Report | After the Shortage: How the U.S. Vape Market Is Rebuilding Itself” — 2Firsts noted that tightening regulations are pushing Shenzhen manufacturers to explore “U.S. manufacturing” as a new pathway. The acceleration of such initiatives through late November further reinforces this trend. 2Firsts will continue to track policy developments, supply-chain adjustments, and market changes.
