HNB is a technology-driven alternative to traditional smoking that involves heating tobacco to a specific temperature without burning it. Unlike conventional cigarettes, which rely on combustion to release nicotine and flavor, HNB products use a controlled heating mechanism to generate an inhalable aerosol. This process prevents combustion, thereby substantially decreasing the production of harmful by-products, including carbon monoxide and tar, that are linked to health risks associated with smoking.

HNB products are often marketed as "reduced-risk" alternatives for smokers who are unable or unwilling to quit. Although these products are not entirely risk-free, research indicates that they produce lower levels of toxic substances than traditional cigarettes, which makes them a popular choice for health-conscious consumers.

In Mexico, the heat-not-burn market is flourishing amidst rising urbanization and an increasing focus on modern lifestyle choices. Urban consumers, particularly millennials, are driving the demand for sleek and innovative HNB devices as a status symbol and a socially acceptable alternative to smoking. The market also benefits from a growing interest in flavored tobacco options catering to local tastes and preferences. Although the regulatory framework is still developing, Mexico’s openness to global tobacco trends has allowed international brands to establish a foothold through localized marketing and strategic distribution networks. The convergence of urbanization, rising disposable incomes, and shifting cultural norms make Mexico a dynamic hub for HNB product growth in the region. Thus, the region will present lucrative growth opportunities for the market throughout the forecast period.
