IQOS Heat Not Burn Technology in Dubai

The intersection of rigorous science, advanced technology, and a bold vision to transform how adult smokers experience tobacco. Looking for a smarter alternative to traditional cigarettes? IQOS Heat Not Burn technology is changing the way adult smokers experience tobacco in Dubai and across the UAE. Unlike cigarettes that burn tobacco, IQOS devices heat specially designed tobacco sticks like HEETS and TEREA to deliver real tobacco taste without smoke, ash, or fire.

Science Behind Heated Tobacco

Changing lives through science.

Philip Morris International (PMI) believes it can change the lives of millions of smokers. PMI has recruited hundreds of scientists and engineers at global R&D centers in Switzerland and Singapore to develop better alternatives to cigarettes.

They developed IQOS β€” an innovative electronic device that heats and does not burn tobacco, producing a tobacco vapour that delivers real tobacco taste with significantly fewer harmful chemicals. IQOS Heat Not Burn technology works differently by heating specially designed tobacco sticks to a controlled temperature, creating a tobacco vapor instead of cigarette smoke. No cigarette smoke, No ash, No fire, Less lingering smell, A cleaner tobacco experience

ℹ️
Important: IQOS is not risk-free. It delivers nicotine, which is addictive. The best decision any smoker can make is to quit tobacco and nicotine use altogether.
Technology

Tested to the highest standards.

IQOS has undergone robust scientific assessments including non-clinical and clinical studies involving thousands of participants worldwide.

01
πŸ”₯
Heat, Not Burn

IQOS heats tobacco to around 350Β°C β€” far below the 600Β°C+ of a burning cigarette. Precise temperature control eliminates combustion entirely.

02
πŸ’¨
Tobacco Vapour

Instead of smoke, IQOS generates a tobacco vapour containing significantly fewer and lower levels of harmful chemicals compared to cigarette smoke.

03
🧬
SmartCore Inductionβ„’

IQOS ILUMA uses electromagnetic induction to heat a metal element inside the TEREA stick β€” no direct contact, no burning, no cleaning needed.

04
βš—οΈ
HeatControlβ„’ Tech

IQOS HeatControlβ„’ technology monitors and maintains a precise temperature throughout the experience, ensuring consistent vapour quality every time.

05
πŸ“Š
Peer Reviewed

18 non-clinical studies and 10 clinical studies with thousands of participants across the US, Japan, UK and Poland validate IQOS's reduced-harm profile.

Better Choice

The totality of evidence shows that, while IQOS use is not risk-free, switching completely to IQOS is a better choice than continuing to smoke.*

Why Heating Is Better

Technology changed everything β€” including tobacco.

❌ Cigarette Burning
600Β°C+

Cigarettes burn tobacco at extreme temperatures, producing fire, ash, tar and smoke β€” a complex mixture of over 6,000 chemical substances, around 100 of which have been linked to smoking-related diseases.

  • Produces fire and ash
  • Generates smoke and tar
  • 6,000+ chemical substances
  • ~100 linked to disease
βœ… IQOS Heating
350Β°C

IQOS heats tobacco to a carefully controlled lower temperature, ensuring combustion does not occur. No fire, no ash, no smoke β€” just tobacco vapour with real taste and 95% less harmful chemicals.*

  • No fire, no ash
  • No smoke β€” tobacco vapour only
  • 95% less harmful chemicals*
  • Real tobacco taste preserved

*"95% less" represents the average reduction in levels of the 9 WHO-recommended chemicals for reduction in cigarette smoke, excluding nicotine.

Research
95%
less harmful chemicals vs cigarette smoke*

Because there is no combustion, IQOS does not produce smoke. It generates a tobacco vapour that brings you the real tobacco taste experience with dramatically fewer harmful chemicals.

⚠️
95% less harmful chemicals does not mean 95% reduction in risk. IQOS is not risk-free and provides nicotine, which is addictive.

Tobacco Vapour vs Smoke

Burning generates smoke & tar. Heating does not.

IQOS heats tobacco instead of burning it. It generates a tobacco vapour that is fundamentally different from cigarette smoke and contains significantly less harmful chemicals.

Switching completely to IQOS, while not risk-free, is a better choice than continuing to smoke β€” evidenced by a comprehensive 10-study clinical assessment programme.

ℹ️
The absence of tar does not mean that IQOS is risk-free. IQOS provides nicotine which is addictive.

IQOS
No Combustion

No fire. No ash. No smoke.

IQOS heats tobacco instead of burning it. This fundamental difference makes IQOS a better choice compared to continued smoking.

🚫
No Fire

IQOS never reaches ignition temperature. SmartCore Inductionβ„’ technology precisely controls heat at all times, eliminating open flame entirely.

πŸ’¨
No Smoke

Without combustion there is no smoke. IQOS generates a tobacco aerosol that dissipates faster and leaves significantly less residual smell.

⚫
No Ash

No burning means no ash. The TEREA tobacco stick stays intact throughout the experience β€” cleaner and more convenient.

πŸ”¬
No Tar

Tar is a byproduct of tobacco combustion. Since IQOS doesn't burn tobacco, it produces no tar β€” a key distinction from cigarettes.

🌑️
Controlled Heat

HeatControlβ„’ technology maintains a precise, consistent temperature during every use, ensuring quality and consistency every time.

πŸƒ
Real Tobacco

TEREA sticks contain real tobacco. Heating β€” not burning β€” preserves tobacco flavour, delivering genuine taste without combustion.

Switching to IQOS

Satisfaction comparable to continued smoking.*

Our studies show that the satisfaction of those who switched completely to IQOS is comparable to that of those who continued to smoke. Discover more about our scientific journey.

*3-month clinical study in US and Japan with 160 adult smokers each. IQOS is not risk-free and delivers nicotine, which is addictive.
