Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 178.7 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 23.47% during 2025-2033. The cost-effectiveness of the product, wide availability through offline and online distribution channels, and the growing prevalence of diseases due to chewing tobacco and cigarettes represent some of the key factors driving the market.
Heat not burn (HNB) tobacco is an electronic device that contains tobacco. It heats tobacco without burning and creates an aerosol that the user inhales. It comprises a carbon tip wrapped in glass fibers that do not cause the product to create ash or burn down in size. It uses real tobacco, not flavored liquid nicotine, as compared to e-cigarettes. It allows users to experience the sensation of smoking a regular cigarette without inhaling combusted tobacco. HNB tobacco can help reduce the risk of tobacco-related harm for adult smokers who switch from combusted cigarettes. It delivers reduced toxicity, lowers levels of harmful chemicals, and causes minimal impact on lung or heart health as compared to regular cigarettes. As they assist in reducing oxidative stress, inflammation, and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) damage, the demand for HNB tobacco is rising across the globe.
At present, the increasing demand for HNB tobacco products due to their low and effective pricing represents one of the key factors supporting the growth of the market. Besides this, there is a rise in the demand for HNB products on account of the growing consumption of tobacco products with minimal nicotine content among smokers. This, along with the increasing awareness among the masses about the harmful impacts of smoking traditional cigarettes, is offering lucrative growth opportunities to industry investors. In addition, key market players are focusing on new marketing strategies to increase the sales of their products and highlight various benefits of using HNB tobacco products. They are also organizing advertising campaigns that encourage people to limit the habit of smoking cigarettes that rely on tobacco. Moreover, there is an increase in the demand for reduced risk products (RRPs) to minimize the dangerous side effects of burning tobacco. This, coupled with the growing prevalence of diseases due to chewing tobacco and cigarettes, is positively influencing the market. Apart from this, the wide availability of HNB tobacco products through offline and online distribution channels, along with the burgeoning e-commerce industry around the world, is propelling the growth of the market. Additionally, governing agencies of various countries are approving the sale of HNB tobacco products, which is strengthening the growth of the market.
