The future of vaping has just been recognised on the world stage. Riot Connex has taken home a European Product Design Award, cementing its status as the next evolution of vaping—just in time for the biggest shake-up in the industry.
With the UK’s disposable vape ban coming into effect on June 1st, millions of vapers will soon be looking for a better alternative. Riot Connex isn’t just ready—it’s already winning awards for delivering exactly what vapers need: effortless usability, unbeatable flavour, and future-proof design.
This isn’t just a win for us. It’s a win for the vapers of tomorrow.
WHAT MAKES THIS AWARD SO IMPORTANT?
The European Product Design Award (ePDA) is no small feat. It’s an internationally recognised accolade that celebrates products that don’t just look great—they genuinely improve people’s lives.
Riot Connex stood out because it solves a real problem. It offers the same simplicity and performance that made disposables popular—without the waste, the cost, or the uncertainty of a short-lived product.
This award is proof that the industry can move forward, and that vapers don’t have to settle for second-best after disposables disappear.
THE DISPOSABLE VAPE BAN: WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?
On June 1st, 2025, disposable vapes will be officially banned from sale in the UK. Retailers will no longer be able to stock them, and the disposable era will come to an end.
For many vapers, this will mean a huge shift. Disposables were the go-to choice for their ease of use, strong flavours, and accessibility. But their time is up—and now, vapers are asking the big question:
What’s next?
Riot Connex is the answer.
WHY RIOT CONNEX IS THE FUTURE OF VAPING
Vapers shouldn’t have to choose between simplicity and sustainability, or between flavour and functionality. Riot Connex delivers everything disposables got right—without the throwaway mentality.
Here’s why it’s the perfect replacement:
- No complicated settings – Just click in a capsule, inhale, and go—the same ease as a disposable.
- Rechargeable & reusable – Instead of tossing away an entire device, you charge it up and swap the capsule.
- Less waste, more savings – Riot Connex is cheaper over time, making it better for your wallet and the planet.
- 600 puffs per capsule – The same amount of puffs as a disposable vape, without the environmental impact.
- Award-winning design – Officially recognised as a game-changing product for the next era of vaping.
With Riot Connex, vapers don’t lose anything. They upgrade.
WHY THIS CHANGES THE INDUSTRY FOREVER
The disposable vape boom reshaped vaping. It brought in millions of smokers who needed a simple way to quit. But it also led to environmental concerns, regulatory scrutiny, and an unsustainable business model.
Now, the industry has to evolve. And Riot Connex is already leading the charge.
This award proves that rechargeable, future-proof vaping isn’t just possible—it’s here. Brands that fail to adapt will be left behind. But vapers? They’re about to experience the best era of vaping yet.
WHAT THIS MEANS FOR YOU
If you’re currently using disposables, here’s what you need to know:
- After June 1st, you won’t be able to buy disposable vapes anymore.
- You need a replacement that feels just as good—if not better.
- Riot Connex is designed for this moment.
With its sleek, award-winning design, it’s not just the best alternative—it’s the only one that truly replicates what vapers love about disposables while moving the industry forward.
THE FUTURE OF VAPING STARTS NOW
