Candles are often packaged in cans or glass, with various spices or colors added. Lighting one at night is very atmospheric. But sealed glass jars, if the temperature is too high and the glass bottle body is not very strong, are prone to explosion and rupture. Once this situation occurs, there is a risk of injury to consumers.
Compared to other materials, this type of glass jar product carries greater risks. In addition to the high temperature problem in the above cases, cracking and cutting are the most important hidden dangers. If the seller has related types of products, they need to be more attentive in terms of quality. If there is an unexpected report, being recalled not only brings certain losses to the seller, but also irreversible personal injury.
