Quick Answer (for busy buyers)

Here’s the buyer-first summary. If your brand name is on the label, you usually act as the responsible person and must ensure the listing is submitted and kept current.

  • Oil concentration is the largest cost factor, with 15-30% concentrations typically costing 30-50% more than 5-10% versions.
  • Bottle weight directly impacts material costs and shipping expenses, with glass bottles over 300g increasing air freight costs by 15-25%.
  • Decoration techniques like hot stamping or complex labeling can add $0.20-$1.50 per unit.
  • MOQs start at 3,000 units for standard designs, with sampling taking 10-14 days.
  • We provide full documentation including IFRA compliance reports and MSDS, with production lead times of 45-60 days after approval.
