California Proposition 65

About California Proposition 65

California Proposition 65 requires covered businesses to give a clear and reasonable warning before certain exposures to chemicals the state lists for cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Whether a warning is required depends on the product, chemical, exposure and applicable legal requirements. The law does not require the same warning for every food or spice.

Read California’s official information about foods and beverages.

The particular product and exposure matter

A chemical’s inclusion on California’s list does not establish its presence or exposure level in a Rehan Spices product. A warning determination considers the relevant chemical, product, exposure and legal requirements; it is not made from a general category such as “spices.”

This page does not state that a particular item contains a listed chemical, is free of listed chemicals, requires a warning or qualifies for an exemption. For questions about an ingredient, identify the exact product, form and lot or order reference so the relevant information can be discussed.

Retail and online purchases

Please review any warning provided for the particular product before buying or using it. Under California’s safe-harbor rules, a required online warning must be associated with the product and available before the purchase is completed; applicable warning requirements also apply on or with the product. A general policy page or footer link does not replace those product-specific steps.

If you have a question about a product’s label or warning information, contact us before ordering and include the product name and form. Asking a question does not replace a warning where one is required.

Wholesale ingredients, repacking and resale

Buying in bulk, repacking, using an ingredient in another product or reselling it can involve warning responsibilities at different stages of the supply chain. A wholesale label or this general page does not by itself determine the warning requirements for a finished product or a buyer’s operation.

Tell us the ingredient and form, intended use, destination and any product or lot reference. Ask about relevant supplier warning information and materials before ordering. Keep any warning information supplied with the associated product records and review the requirements for your own packaging, sales channels and finished products.

California provides guidance for businesses in the supply chain.
