Malaysia Vaping Laws
The Control of Smoking Products for Public Health Act 2024 (Act 852) has been in force since 1 October 2024. It defines smoking to include vapour, bans the sale of vapes to anyone under 18, and makes it an offence for under-18s to buy them, with a fine of up to RM500 or community service. Smoking or vaping in a gazetted non-smoking area carries a fine of up to RM5,000, and the owner or occupier must take all reasonable measures to stop people smoking there (Act 852, sections 2, 13, 16 and 18).
The rules are still moving. Perak has stopped licensing vape shops, and the legal status of nicotine liquid has been in question since a 2026 High Court ruling (Malay Mail; CodeBlue, 2026). Sensors help principals and building managers show they are taking reasonable steps, whatever changes next.
Our 100-day money-back guarantee means Malaysian schools, malls and employers can test vape detection on their own premises. If you aren’t satisfied, we’ll refund you.

Sensors Across Malaysia
Secondary schools, matriculation colleges, universities, hotels, malls and office buildings can all use sensors to keep non-smoking areas vape-free.
Chosen by Hundreds of UK Schools
Malaysian schools can rely on a system already working in hundreds of UK schools, where it monitors toilets without cameras or microphones.
The NHMS 2022 Adolescent Health Survey found that 14.9% of school students aged 13 to 17 currently used e-cigarettes or vapes (Institute for Public Health, Ministry of Health). Here is how our system supports principals and discipline teachers.
Built-In Prevention
Our vaping education course, made with LifeLab at the University of Southampton, helps counsellors and discipline teachers follow up an alert with a conversation.
Engineered in Britain
The sensor and software are designed in-house by our team in the UK, so there is one point of contact for everything.

Our specialists help by email, phone or Live Chat with installation, alert settings and reporting.
