Frequently Asked Questions

California Proposition 65 requires warnings about significant exposure to cancer-causing or reproductive-harm chemicals. For home décor: lead (in painted surfaces, ceramics glaze), cadmium (in yellow/orange pigments), phthalates (in soft PVC décor). To avoid Prop 65 exposure: request test reports for heavy metals and phthalates, specify lead-free paints, use non-PVC materials. SGS and Bureau Veritas offer Prop 65 compliance testing.
Specify: wax type (paraffin, soy, coconut), fragrance (provide scent brief or fragrance samples), wick (cotton or wood), container (glass jar, tin, pillar). Request IFRA fragrance safety compliance certificates. MOQ: 300–500 units for custom-scented candles. Lead time: 15–25 days production. Shipping: candles with fragrance are classified as perfumery goods — declare correctly. ChinaBajar can manage fragrance development and small-batch candle production.
Common issues: color variation between production batches, paint chipping on ceramics, dimensional variation from spec, fragile materials breaking in transit, inconsistent finish quality. Solutions: pre-shipment inspection, approved golden samples for every order, packaging audit (ensure adequate inner box protection), AQL random inspection on 15%+ of units for first-time orders. Always order 10–20 samples before committing to large quantities.
