ARRANGEMENT APPLIED IN A STYLIZED LAYER TO A CIGARETTE PACKET WITH NICOTINE- AND HARMFUL-ELEMENT-REDUCING INSERT
The subject matter relates to a stylized layer for a cigarette packet, which is developed to fit the packet. It fits the packet recess, enclosing all the rear part and part of the side of the packet, and is provided with a rear wall with a cutout and an internal compartment housing an infrared insert emitting signals in the long infrared. The long-infrared insert has substances that allow a reduction in the level of nicotine and of various other elements harmful to the user's health, found in cigarettes. The user can stylize the packet, since the layer is able to receive promotional messages and be decorated. It allows the control of the substances entering the body, making it possible for the user, to give up smoking. The longer the time of contact between the layer and the packet, the more the level of nicotine and substances in cigarettes will diminish.
