HISTORY OF RECONSTITUTED TOBACCO
•
•
•
•
Reconstituted Tobacco started in the 1970’s with the introduction of
Paper Based Technology developed by Kimberley Clark USA.
In the 1990’s, a new production process for RECON was launched
called Slurry RECON by China National Tobacco Company (CNTC).
In the early 2000’s, a hybrid of Paper Process and Slurry was
developed by companies such as BAT.
Nano Fiber RECON is the latest technology developed in 2008.

PAPER TECHNOLOGY
•
•
•
•
Papermaking reconstituted tobacco utilizes tobac
co by-products such as stems, scraps and midribs
etc. as its raw material and produced by paper
technology.
Tobacco by-products are broken up and mixed
with water. The fiber portion and the soluble
portion are separated.
The fiber portion goes to papermaking process to
be formed as a base sheet
The soluble is cleaned and then concentrated by
evaporation.
The formed sheet and the extracted soluble is
combined again.
The sheet is dried and cut into usable shapes for
cigarette manufacturer.

NANO FIBER RECON TECHNOLOGY
• Pioneered by RECON INC Brazil and commercialized by STI. This technology
has now become the benchmark for the best quality Reconstituted Tobacco in
the world in terms of tensile strength, aromatic preservation, filling power and
cost efficiency.

HOMOGENIZED RECON TECHNOLOGY
Homogenized tobacco leaf (HTL) is a mixture of chopped scraps tobacco and
a cellulose adhesive, which is extruded into a sheet that can be cut in any
size. We have the homogenized tobacco at good quality of taste & aroma.
