Some chemicals used to create fragrances are classed as allergens. Allergenic chemicals can occur from some synthetic aromatic materials but also naturally within essential oils. All our fragrances are submitted with Allergen Declarations which will advise any allergens present in the formulations along with their inclusion levels.
Chemicals, natural and synthetic are constantly retested by IFRA for safety in use, for more information please take a look at the IFRA website.
Carvansons Ltd has a large range of allergen-free fragrances, if you would like further information on these aromas, please get in touch.
Our fragrances are used in a wide range of products, anything which has a smell we can create an aroma for. We produce fragrances for consumer products, including, fine fragrance industry, home fragrance, household and personal care products. We also provide fragrances for industrial uses, automotive industries and event spaces.
All products have different fragrance requirements and thresholds. It is worth taking your time and testing different dosages of the fragrance in your product. All fragrances supplied by Carvansons LTD are issued with IFRA Conformity Certificates, this is an extremely important document when deciding on your fragrance dosage as it will advise what level you can safely use the aroma up to in different product categories. Please note the IFRA certificate does not advise an actual dosage you should be using but just a maximum safety limit.
A large aspect of dosage is down to your personal preference, cost and the amount of aroma your base can hold. If your base has a smell to it, you may find you have to add a higher dosage of aroma to cover the smell of the base before getting the benefit of the aroma.
There is an optimum limit with fragrances where no further benefit can be added from increasing the dosage. Overdosing could cause issues with your product’s manufacture and functionality.
For further information on recommended dosage levels for specific products, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
Yes, blending fragrances together is a great way to create new scents. We can advise on how this can be done safely and to the best effect. Please note any amendments to formulations will require reassessments and technical documents.
The flashpoint of a fragrance is the temperature at which it becomes combustible if exposed to a spark or flame. The flashpoint for each fragrance is located on the CLP Safety Data Sheet under Section 9. Physical and Chemical Properties. Should you require testing at a specific temperature, we can help test this for you.
We are a member of the International Fragrance Association (IFRA) and comply with all regulatory requirements. We apply the IFRA Code of Practice to the manufacturing of fragrances and conform to COSHH and CLP for the handling of all fragrance materials.
The fragrances we create are made to order and as a result, take time to manufacture. This ensures that the product is specifically created for your order and ensures that the product maintains it’s potency for the maximum length of time. We aim to manufacture orders within 10 working days from order confirmation or receipt of payment if you are on pro-forma invoice.
Please note this is only a guide and is subject to change due to the availability of raw materials and other mitigating factors.
