    Beginner Checklist

    Use the correct type. Container, pillar, tealight, and wax melt labels use different handling instructions.
    Print at 100% scale. Browser print dialogs often default to "fit to page"; choose actual size for label paper.
    Review before selling. This tool assists composition; product testing and final compliance remain the maker's responsibility.

    About the Candle Warning Label Generator

    Preventing fire hazards and minimizing liability requires clear, standardized consumer safety communication on all burned products. Created for chandlers and candle manufacturers, our candle warning label generator ensures your products meet ASTM F2058 standards. Instantly format the crucial fire safety pictograms alongside the mandatory 'burn within sight' warnings to protect your customers and your business.

    How it works

    1. Select the diameter of your candle to determine the minimum allowable font and pictogram sizes.
    2. Choose the standard ASTM warning layout (text only, or text alongside the three core pictograms).
    3. Add any specific usage instructions, such as trimming the wick to 1/4 inch before lighting.
    4. Customize the layout to fit your jar's base, then download the print-ready safety label.

    Frequently asked questions

    Are warning labels legally required on candles?

    While there is no specific federal law mandating candle labels in the US, compliance with ASTM standards is heavily enforced by the CPSC and is generally required for product liability insurance.

    What are the three mandatory rules for candle safety labels?

    According to ASTM standards, the three core warnings are: Burn within sight, Keep away from combustibles, and Keep away from children and pets.

    Does the warning label have to be on the bottom of the candle?

    No, but it must be placed prominently on the product. The bottom is industry standard because it doesn't interfere with branding, provided the user can see it before use.

    Do I have to use pictograms on my candle warning label?

    ASTM F2058 allows the use of text-only warnings, but using the specific standardized safety pictograms alongside the text is highly recommended to improve consumer comprehension.
