Eight Things We Have Done to Handle Many Brands

One of the difficulties we have over at True North is making sure that we always have what is needed or wanted by our customers. Over the years this has ballooned into over 90 brands of juice and will likely continue to grow to over 200 in the 2019 and 2020 years. Many people have told us we are crazy and that we would end up in a logistical nightmare, have huge financial difficulties or end up with thousands of bottles in wasted inventory each year. Through hard experience none of that has been true. In fact, the opposite...

How Compliancy Has Shaped The Look Of E-Liquid

When I first started at True North Vapor, I was selling eGO starter kits from behind a Buy Shop counter. I was content to have a retail job, and while I did have a background in graphic design, I never imagined that I’d be putting those skills to use in this industry. I applied for a new graphic design position internally, and I was overjoyed when they told me they’d give me a shot. Since then, it’s been a whirlwind. I had to learn a lot about digital design, and most importantly, about e-liquid label laws. Fast forward several years...

What Is the Best VG/PG Ratio for E-Liquid?

Do you think that flavors are the majority of what you inhale when you vape? What about nicotine? Wrong on both counts; almost all of the contents of any bottle of e-liquid are two carrier liquids: vegetable glycerin (VG) and propylene glycol (PG). The carriers in an e-liquid have several important functions. They dilute highly concentrated nicotine and flavors to their proper strengths for inhalation. They emulsify an e-liquid’s ingredients and eliminate the need to shake the bottle constantly to keep those ingredients mixed. They also form large, smoke-like clouds when heated. Without those clouds, you wouldn’t have the visual...

Mouth-to-Lung vs. Direct-to-Lung Vaping

Out of all the things that can dramatically affect your vaping experience, the way in which you inhale is certainly one of the biggest. You can draw the vapor into your mouth before inhaling it – mouth-to-lung inhaling is the way in which most people smoke cigarettes – or you can inhale the vapor directly into your lungs. If you started vaping by buying a small e-cigarette, it’s likely that you’ve already tried mouth-to-lung inhaling. Why would anyone want to inhale vapor directly to their lungs, and what are the benefits of direct-to-lung vaping? What vaping equipment and e-liquid work...

Caution: Extremely Toxic

Classification of Nicotine as a hazardous substance under CCCR 2001. Gone are the days when E-Cigarette Vendors could supply copious amounts of raw nicotine to eager do-it-yourself-ers. Since the implementation of the Canadian Chemicals and Containers regulations (CCCR 2001) any vaping product which contains over 66mg/g of nicotine is considered a very toxic substance and is illegal to manufacture, import, and sell in Canada. Not only do products need to be below the “very toxic” threshold for use in Canada, but they also need to be properly identified as a Toxic substance by CCCR 2001 standards. But what does that...
