California Proposition 65 Information
Understanding Proposition 65 warnings
This page provides general information to help you understand California Proposition 65 warnings and find further guidance from official sources.
What does a warning mean?
Proposition 65 warnings advise of exposures to chemicals that may contribute to a person’s overall lifetime risk of cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
When a business provides a warning on a product, it is indicating that it knows or believes the product exposes individuals to one or more chemicals on California’s Proposition 65 list.
Where can I find information about a particular product?
Read any warning provided on the product, its packaging or its product page. For information about the chemical exposure that prompted a warning, contact the manufacturer or importer. You can also ask for suggestions on how to minimise exposure.
If your question relates to a Zempire product, contact our team with the product name and a photo or the exact wording of the warning so we can help direct your enquiry.
How can I learn more?
The California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) maintains an official website with information for consumers and businesses. Its resources include:
- Frequently asked questions about Proposition 65.
- Fact sheets about specific chemicals, products and places.
- The Proposition 65 list of chemicals.
- Information about reducing exposure to listed chemicals.
