If you are looking for non-toxic candles and air fresheners, the useful question is what an independent party has actually checked. Fragrance is often listed as a single ingredient term that can hide the individual components, so we look for a third-party basis we can read. For candles, we found one product line where we could: Fontana Candle Co. wood wick beeswax candles, listed by MADE SAFE®.
See our full guide to Fontana wood wick beeswax candles for both scents we cover. For EWG background, see what EWG VERIFIED® means. See our ESAS Bergamot Beach Fine Fragrance (2026): MADE SAFE Certified Spotlight.
The Basis: MADE SAFE®
MADE SAFE® (madesafe.org) is an independent nonprofit certification program that screens finished products against its own hazard lists. For Fontana candles, the registry wording we read is: “MADE SAFE Certified in all currently available sizes / packaging options.” We matched the scent below to that registry entry. See what MADE SAFE® certification means. A listing reflects the program’s criteria, not a guarantee about any health outcome, and we make no health or safety claims of our own. This candle is not presented as EWG VERIFIED®.

About Air Fresheners
Plug-ins and sprays rely on fragrance to do their job, which is why we do not recommend a specific air freshener product here. We only feature products where we can read a third-party basis for the exact item. For options and alternatives, see our guide to non-toxic air fresheners and our article on swapping plug-in air fresheners for alternatives.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between MADE SAFE® and EWG VERIFIED®?
They are separate programs run by different nonprofits, each with its own criteria. The candle here rests on one basis only, its MADE SAFE® listing.
Q: Why only one candle?
We list only products whose certifier listing we could read. Others may be fine products, but we have not confirmed a basis for them, so we do not feature them.
