Description

Class A24 covers the manufacture, composition, and ancillary products related to tobacco and tobacco-derived smoking articles, including cigars, cigarettes, and their components (papers, filters, wrappers). It also encompasses simulated smoking devices (e.g., electronic cigarettes, heat-not-burn products) and related accessories such as pipes, lighters, ashtrays, and tobacco storage containers. This class includes inventions addressing tobacco processing, blending, flavoring, packaging, and safety features in smoking products. Adjacent classes address broader food and beverage processing (A23) and personal care items (A45), while A24 remains focused specifically on tobacco consumption-related technologies and apparatus.
