Candle warning labels are safety labels that include fire prevention instructions and must remain visible and readable throughout the life of the candle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a trusted provider of labeling solutions, Avery designs materials that meet real-world product needs. This includes heat resistance, oil exposure, long-term durability, and more. In this guide, we\u2019ll walk through what to include on candle warning labels, where to place them, and how to choose materials that hold up over time.

And, approximately 85% of those could be prevented by following three simple rules, according to candle safety research cited by the <a href=\"https:\/\/candles.org\/candle-safety-tips\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">National Candle Association<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-3-essential-candle-safety-rules\"><strong>The 3 essential candle safety rules:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile\" style=\"grid-template-columns:41% auto\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/img.avery.com\/f_auto,c_scale,w_700\/web\/blog\/blog-candlewarninglabel-infographic.jpg\" alt=\"Close-up of a round candle warning label showing branding, burn safety instructions, and product volume placement on a candle jar lid.\"\/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list has-medium-font-size\">\n<li>Always burn candles within sight<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Never burn candles near flammable items<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Keep candles away from children and pets<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Industry standards state that the three candle safety rules should always be placed somewhere on your candles for proper fire safety. Thankfully, there are industry-standard pictograms that help convey the message when space is limited. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.astm.org\/Standards\/F2058.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">ASTM standards<\/a> recommend that fire safety warning labels are put on each unit of sale, and visible at the point of sale. You also need to make sure they&#8217;re not covered, obstructed, or removed by the manufacturer, distributor, or retailer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to safety messaging, most candle safety labels also include burning instructions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"h-burning-instructions\"><strong>Burning instructions:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Trim wick to 1\/4&#8243; before lighting<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Keep wax pool free of debris<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Burn on a level, heat-resistant surface<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Do not burn for more than 4 hours at a time<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Stop use when 1\/4&#8243; of wax remains<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>To ensure your warnings remain effective, it\u2019s also important to use label materials that won\u2019t fade, peel, or smudge during use\u2014especially for candles that are burned multiple times.

For best results, measure the surface where your label will be applied. Also consider whether it will be placed on the bottom, side, or packaging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-common-options-include\"><strong>Common options include:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>1&#8243;\u20131.5&#8243; round labels:<\/strong> Ideal for small jars and tins<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>2&#8243;\u20132.5&#8243; round labels:<\/strong> Great for standard candle jars<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>3&#8243;+ labels:<\/strong> Best for larger containers or packaging<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Rectangle labels:<\/strong> Useful for side placement or outer packaging<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Choosing the right size not only improves appearance but also ensures your safety information remains easy to read throughout the life of the candle.
