Tobacco stick collection bags are available for free at all IQOS Boutiques. Alternatively, you can also add them for free to your next purchase on iqos.com for free at check-out. On average, a bag holds 500 sticks (equivalent to more than two bundles of TEREA), and you can now select the amount of collection bags in proportion to the number of bundles in your cart:

1-2 bundles = 1-2 collection bags
3-4 bundles = 1-3 collection bags
5-6 bundles = 1-4 collection bags
7-8 bundles = 1-5 collection bags
9-10 bundles = 1-6 collection bags

When you return your used sticks to us, they are collected and sent to our storage partner. Thanks to the regular increase in participation in the Take Back program by IQOS users, we now have the necessary volumes to enter the testing phases for the recycling and recovery alternatives for tobacco sticks that have been explored over the months. Our goal is to find solutions that valorise each component of the tobacco sticks, going beyond the standard incineration cycle. We are experimenting with and evaluating the effectiveness and suitability of locally available technologies in accordance with applicable legislation. However, this task is complex, because tobacco sticks are composed of several elements. Currently, we are working on several approaches, from energy recovery to the recycling of the various elements of the sticks into the production of other raw materials. So, to give your used sticks a second life, send them back to us. For more information, regularly visit our FAQs.

It may be that the postman’s delivery vehicle is full or that they simply didn’t come that day. Rest assured: Your postman should pick up the tobacco stick collection bag next time.

Tobacco stick collection bags are meticulously designed to collect used IQOS tobacco sticks over the period of consumption. Made from 100% recyclable plastic, these bags not only prevent odours, but are also waterproof. For the time being, plastic is the only material that can guarantee a clean and convenient experience.
