Frequently Asked Questions - Recessed Cigarette Filter Rods

What is a Recessed Cigarette Filter Rod?

A Recessed Cigarette Filter Rod features a hollow recessed space at the mouth-end of the filter, typically 5-7mm in depth. This recessed zone is created using stiff plug-wrap paper and is designed to modify smoke perception while avoiding direct contact with the cellulose acetate tow.

What makes Recessed Cigarette Filter Rods different from standard filter rods?

Recessed cigarette filter rods feature a mouth-end hollow recessed space (typically 5–7 mm deep) formed using stiff plug-wrap paper. This recessed structure alters smoke flow before inhalation, helps avoid direct contact with cellulose acetate tow, and provides a distinct smoking perception. In addition to functional benefits, the recessed mouth-end creates a unique visual appearance, making recessed filters a strategic option for cigarette brand differentiation.

What is the purpose of the recessed space in the filter?

The recessed space creates a distinct smoke perception by altering airflow at the mouth-end of the cigarette. It also prevents direct contact with the filter tow, contributing to a differentiated draw and overall product design.

How does the recessed filter design affect airflow and draw?

The recessed zone allows controlled airflow before smoke reaches the mouth, resulting in a smoother and cooler draw perception. This structural design is widely used to create a differentiated filter format without changing cigarette construction.

Can Recessed Filter Rods include additional filter segments?

Yes. Recessed Filter Rods can be combined with various internal segments such as:

  • Charcoal segments
  • Mono acetate segments
  • Capsule segments
  • Colored thread segments

These combinations help manufacturers optimize filtration design and brand positioning
