Smoking Accessories Market Trends:

Rise of luxury smoking accessories segment

Individuals are willing to spend on luxury items of high quality that make smoking rich and exquisite. Products such as gold-plated lighters, designer ashtrays, and artisanal hand-crafted pipes are gradually becoming popular among the luxurious buyers. These luxury products are not only for functional purposes but also to show status, because smoking with such accessories gives an edge of prestige to the experience. As the WHO informs, 1.3 Billion people use tobacco products and live in low- and middle-income countries which constitute around 80% of total numbers. S.T. Dupont and Casablanca Paris released luxury line smoking accessories such as lighters, cigar cutters, ashtrays, and humidors in 2024. A new collection by S.T. Dupont, that includes "The Art of Sport," represents intricate craft work and modern design based on themes such as Mosaic and Tennis, extending to the array of products.

Growing demand for sustainable and eco-friendly products

Brands are providing alternative options that are sustainable: biodegradable rolling papers, reusable lighters, and accessories made from recycled or natural materials like bamboo. This focus on the environmental-friendly option is particularly appealing to the eco-conscious individual who will pay a premium for their purchase based on sustainability. The People's Climate Vote 2024, the largest global climate survey representing 87% of the world's population, reveals that 56% of respondents think about climate change daily or weekly as they experience its increasingly disruptive environmental impacts. The growing awareness of environmental issues is driving demand for green products. Manufacturers are also embracing eco-friendly practices to remain competitive, thus increasing sustainable product offerings. This trend is part of the wider trend of environmentally responsible consumption within various industries, which has a positive impact on the market. In 2024, Houseplant, co-founded by Seth Rogen, announced a collaboration with OCB to introduce a high-end rolling papers and cones line. The range includes sustainable models using bamboo, brown rice, and the classics, ensuring a great smoking experience.

Increasing popularity of customization and personalization

People are showing interest in personalized smoking accessories that reflect their individual styles. Customization options, such as engraved lighters, bespoke rolling trays, and hand-painted pipes, are attracting buyers who seek unique items. This trend is particularly prevalent among younger users, who value distinct and personalized products. According to the UN, there are over 1.2 Billion people in the young age group (15 to 24 years), which accounts for 16% of the world population. Businesses providing personalized services are experiencing an increase in requests, leading to higher sales and improved customer retention. The ability to tailor accessories to personal preferences adds value, encouraging more individuals toward premium and custom products in the smoking accessories market. In 2023, Blazy Susan launched a new collaboration with the Grateful Dead, offering a collection of premium smoking accessories. The collection featured slow-burning rolling papers, pre-rolled cones, rolling trays, and grinders, all with custom artwork inspired by the band's iconic imagery.
