Unlike food and cosmetics, there is currently no harmonised standard for organic candles. The claim “organic” for candles is nevertheless still subject to control in order to maintain high standards as it is a label recognised by consumers. Misleading claims on products are illegal and there have been prosecutions for misleading claims.
Products will need to be made from a very high proportion of organic materials. You should, therefore, avoid selling a candle as organic if only a proportion of the elements are organic certified. We can provide the BioCERE Product Certificate (Trading Schedule) and Certificate of Registration from the UK Soil Association upon request.
To make a fully organic candle ensure you use organic certified wax, wick and fragrance. Any organic marketing claims must be able to be validated. If you are in any doubt, speak to the organic certification body or Trading Standards.
