Ingredients in snuff
Swedish Match manufactures three different categories of snuff snus, moist snuff and nasal snuff.
- Snus is a moist to semi-moist, ground, oral tobacco product, which is used between the gum and the upper lip in the oral cavity. Snus exists in two packaging formats, loose and portion packed. Both forms exist in different flavour varieties. Snus is pasteurised in a proprietary heat treatment process. This manufacturing process satisfies the hygienic requirements of the Swedish Food Act.
- Moist snuff is a moist, ground or cut, oral tobacco product, which is typically placed between the gum and the lower lip in the oral cavity. Moist snuff exists in two packaging formats, loose or portion packed. Both forms exist in different flavour varieties. Moist snuff is manufactured by a controlled fermentation process.
- Nasal snuff is a dry to semi-moist, finely ground tobacco product, which is mainly used in the nasal cavity. Nasal snuff exists in different flavour varieties.
