Vaporizer

A vaporizer is a device that heats various substances to a controlled temperature in order to produce vapour without combustion. This technology is used with flowers, concentrates, resins or other compatible products, depending on the vaporizer model concerned. Vaporizers are available in many formats, from portable models to desktop devices.

What is a vaporizer?

A vaporizer works by heating the material to a temperature sufficient to release certain volatile compounds in the form of vapour. Unlike combustion, this process does not rely on a direct flame. The temperature used varies depending on the device and the materials intended for vaporization.

How does a vaporizer work?

The material is placed in a heating chamber, where it is exposed to a controlled temperature. The volatile compounds present in the material then turn into vapour, which can be inhaled through a mouthpiece, hose or balloon, depending on the type of device used.

What types of vaporizers are available?

There are portable vaporizers powered by batteries as well as desktop models powered by mains electricity. Some devices are designed for flowers, others for concentrates, while certain models are compatible with several types of products.

Heating systems

Vaporizers generally use a conduction system, a convection system or a combination of both. Conduction heats the material directly through contact with a hot surface, while convection uses a flow of heated air. Each technology has its own operating characteristics.

Vaporizers in the world of hemp

Vaporizers occupy an important place in the world of hemp and specialised accessories. They are used with different categories of compatible products and are now among the most widely used pieces of equipment in the vaporization sector.

A device that has become essential

Thanks to advances in heating technology and batteries, vaporizers have developed significantly over the years. They are now available in many formats and represent a major category in the market for hemp- and vaporization-related accessories.
