Is made in the usa really 100% made in the usa

[unclestu]

I have only been involved with buying ejuice since May and I always purchased made in the USA ejuice or so I thought. It was brought to my attention by a person just getting started in vaping that all nicotine is made in China thus any eliquid supposedly made in the USA is not really 100% USA made. It is just mixed in the USA. Is that true?

Far as I know, yes. There are no nicotine extraction facilities in the USA at this time. However there's a ton of controversy surrounding the legitimacy of that allegation.. many vendors claim to be 100% sourced and manufactured here in the states. So, to answer your question.. I don't know.

Made in the USA ???

Back 50 plus years ago working as a Tool and Die Maker appretiance I sometimes made pickups / delivers for my employeer. A metal plating company we used had several automated zink platings lines which ran 24/7 plating really low grade nuts,washers,bolts which were imported from Asia then plated here and sold as Made in the USA and it was legal to do so. The few Electronic devices made here used parts made from other countries even US branded vechiles use forign parts etc.

With ejuice there is only one US based Nic producer it seems and most flavorings come from abroad. Much of the PG and VG is produced here and since they are the major componets volum wise I guess that makes them made in the US.

Most mixers buy their nic from RTS Vapes, which I think is in Georga, there's another one in Arizona that makes what's called a Whole Tobacco liquid. If you actually do the research you'll discover it's only individuals that are using chinese nic to make eliquid.
