Getting started
Net quantity
Weight, not volume16 CFR 500.7 requires weight for a solid commodity, and a melt is sold solid.Where the declaration goesOn the principal display panel, as a distinct item, with specified separation and no qualifying words.How to write itBoth systems, ounces under a pound, only the listed abbreviations and symbols.Type size, from the panel areaThe minimum letter height depends on the area of the principal display panel, computed a specific way.
The pour
Fill temperature, and half this shelfPET 120 F, PP 240 F, glass 300 F, measured from the catalog. 112 of 224 containers are PET.Release and shrinkA melt has to come out of its container, which makes draft angle and wall finish functional.Fragrance loadThe percentage of oil changes the weight, the release and what the container has to tolerate.
What goes wrong
Short measureA weight computed from the jar capacity rather than weighed, or a formula change nobody relabeled.The jar deformedA PET container at 120 F meeting a hotter pour: out of round, shorter, or a neck that no longer caps.It will not releaseStraight walls, a deep fill, a narrow mouth, or wax chilled too fast to pull away.There is no scent throwToo little surface area, a load above what the wax holds, or a warmer the product was never matched to.
