Flashpoint is the lowest temperature at which liquid is a specified apparatus will give off sufficient vapor to ignite momentarily on application of flame.
This means that the temperature the liquid in its vessel is exposed to/surrounded by cannot exceed this lowest temperature, or flashpoint, which becomes a concern when shipping.
There are rules for air and ground shipping based on the item's flashpoint, which often result in hazardous material fees for shipping.
Most orders for in-stock items should ship within 5 business days after receipt. Special ordered manufactured items such as fragrances and flavors will ship in approximately 8 business days (assuming all components are on-hand and have passed quality control). Shipment lead-time for products that require distillation will vary. Customer service can provide you with this information. During our busy season (June through November), orders may take longer to process.
Orders that ship via UPS or FEDEX ground require your signature for delivery. If you would like to waive this requirement, please notify customer service. As a general rule, orders weighing in excess of 300 pounds typically ship common carrier.

If your order will be shipping via UPS, FEDEX or common carrier, we can e-mail you an automatic shipment notification alerting you your order has shipped. The notification will include the carrier’s tracking, airway bill or pro number allowing you to track your order. Please be sure we have your current e-mail address on file by including it on your order or when speaking with one of our customer service representatives.
