What is ZYN made of? 

You can find the content for each ZYN product on the product page under “Ingredients.” 

According to analytical chemist Ben Katz, after testing different ZYN flavors: 

“Based on these tests, nicotine is the bioactive molecule in ZYN, and the nicotine is the only tobacco-related alkaloid that we can see in this product.” – Ben Katz 

ZYN Cool Mint Mini Dry Normal contains, for example: fillers (E 965, E 460, E 414), acidity regulator (E 500), stabilizer (E 463), nicotine bitartrate, flavors, and sweeteners (E 950). The product also has a nicotine content of 0.75%.

Who owns ZYN? 

ZYN is owned by Swedish Match, which in turn is owned by Philip Morris. The tobacco giant bought the Swedish company in 2022.  

Why are ZYNs out of stock? 

ZYN, the fastest-growing nicotine product in the U.S., is facing a significant shortage, frustrating users who struggle to find their preferred products. This shortage is driven by a surge in demand and exacerbated by a recent halt in online sales due to legal challenges. The product gained popularity through endorsements from online creators and podcasters, leading to an 80% increase in sales. Philip Morris, which owns ZYN’s manufacturer Swedish Match, acknowledged the “short-term inventory constraint” and is investing in expanding U.S. production. However, normal supply levels are not expected until the end of the year, causing continued frustration among loyal users.  

Does ZYN have nicotine? 

Yes, ZYN nicotine pouches contain nicotine. 

Is ZYN nicotine-free? 

No, ZYN contains nicotine and is therefore not nicotine-free. 

Is ZYN tobacco-free? 

Yes, ZYN pouches provide pure nicotine without the harmful tobacco. 

Can you use ZYN to quit vaping? 

Yes, you can use ZYN nicotine pouches to quit vaping. ZYN offers a less harmful way to satisfy nicotine cravings without the smoke and toxins of vaping. Start with lower nicotine strengths and gradually replace vaping sessions with pouches. 

Why are ZYN pouches so popular? 

ZYN has become the Kleenex of nicotine pouches. It was introduced in the United States in 2014 and is now widely available in convenience stores, gas stations, pharmacies, and online. Despite not using official influencers, the brand has a strong presence on social media, driven by “Zynfluencers” and organic mentions by popular figures. 

Unlike cigarette brands, ZYN can advertise on billboards and TV, enhancing its visibility and reach. Controversies and legal challenges have kept the brand in the public eye, driving curiosity and interest. These factors combined have made ZYN a leading product in the nicotine pouch market. 

Who owns ZYN in the United States? 

Philip Morris acquired ZYN maker Swedish Match in 2022 with a $16 billion takeover. 

What are ZYN cans made of? 

ZYN cans are made of bio-based plastic to reduce the climate footprint.
