PHE - Corporate - Testing for Menthol Characterising Flavour in Cigarettes

Tender description

The ban on menthol flavouring has generated the need for one-off testing to ascertain if identified cigarette brands are compliant with UK regulations. PHE has identified 27 cigarette products of interest which will require laboratory testing for the presence of menthol and its analogues, with a smaller number of products (5) also being tested for control purposes. As well as the presence of menthol and its analogues within cigarette emissions, PHE require a summary of the levels of such chemicals identified. Additional information: If not already done so, you will need to register your organisation on our Bravo e-Tendering Portal. This is free of charge and a one-off requirement. https://phe.bravosolution.co.uk Once registered please navigate to Project 6142 or ITT 4692.
