Private Label & White Label Natural Deodorant Manufacturing

Private label and white label natural deodorant manufacturing for brands ready to produce.

We offer private label and white label deodorant manufacturing in the USA, with flexible production runs, full ingredient transparency, and proven formulas that actually work.

Production runs begin at 300 units. You provide the containers, which can be plastic or compostable paperboard in a standard deodorant size. Offer your customers a clean, effective deodorant made in small batches.

We work with startups, established brands, and retailers looking for a reliable natural deodorant manufacturer. While our minimums are lower than most U.S. manufacturers, our process is intentionally streamlined, predictable, and works best for brands that take time to review the information provided and are comfortable making clear, timely decisions along the way.

Manufacturing process: Hot-pour filling using a semi-manual, weight-calibrated, operator-assisted dispensing process well suited for wax- and oil-based natural deodorant formulas.

Your Formula, Your Ingredients (You Provide Everything)

• Standard Run (500–799 units): $3.25 each
• Mid-Volume Run (800–999 units): $3.05 each

• High-Volume Run (2,000+ units): $1.62 each

Lead time: Typical lead time is 4 weeks, depending on our current production schedule.

Please note that we are a manufacturer, not a full-service brand development company. Our focus is production, which allows us to keep processes streamlined and pricing more accessible. To keep costs low, we don’t provide support for marketing, branding, or selling platforms—those aspects will be up to you to research and manage.

Shipping We manufacture in and ship from Florida. Shipping will be calculated based on your address.  We ship within the United States only. Deodorant orders under Qty 1,000 usually ship via UPS Ground (2-5 days), deodorant orders over Qty 2,000 usually ship via freight (7-10 days), but we can ship however you prefer. Local pick up is not available.

Formulas Our most popular private label option is our Original formula, already in regular production and proven with real-world customer use, made with the carefully selected ingredients: Organic Coconut Oil, Baking Soda (naturally aluminum-free), Organic Corn Starch, Wild Crafted Candelilla Wax, Organic Jojoba Oil, Probiotics - This formula is highly effective for most people, and we offer customization options to suit your needs!
*Please note that our other two formulas are not as universally effective, go on white, and are best suited only if you're specifically pursuing the baking soda-sensitive market.
Click to see the ingredients for our:
-Sensitive (Baking Soda Free formula)
-Extra Strength Sensitive (Low Baking Soda formula)
Sensitive Clear is not available for private label, as it is still new to market and does not yet have sufficient long-term customer feedback to responsibly offer it as a private-label base formula (check back in 2028).

Customized base formulas Limited customization of our established formulas is available for private label customers, such as swapping certain ingredients or adding an ingredient. We do not develop entirely new formulas from scratch. More details on our Custom Deodorant Formulation Services here. 

Scented / Fragrance
We DO NOT stock scents—you'll send us what you want to use. Bulk Apothecary’s natural fragrance line is very popular since it is more natural, but they also sell essential oils as well as have a full conventional fragrance collection.  However you can use any supplier you like. Check the supplier’s IFRA certificate to confirm the allowable usage percentage for deodorant. 

How it works:

• You send us a 2 oz bottle of the fragrance or essential oil you want to use.
• We’ll make sample deodorants at 3%, 4%, and 5% scent strength so you can choose how strong you'd like your final product to be (you can choose other %'s if you like).
• We charge $150/hour for the time it takes to make the samples (usually 1 hour per scent).

Note: A $65 per scent fee applies to each production batch (not samples) to cover cleaning and replacement of non-cleanable parts.

Important: Each scent requires its own 300-unit batch. We can split one batch into scented and unscented, but we cannot pour two different scents from the same batch—once we add fragrance to the batch, the entire thing is scented and we can't take it back out.

Communication and Project Scope
Our manufacturing services are structured production services offered at a flat fee. They are not open-ended consulting engagements at that price point.

Reasonable clarification questions are expected and included. However, extended exploratory discussions, repeated revisions, reopened decisions, or prolonged written back-and-forth that moves beyond defined production details fall outside the scope of our flat-fee services.

Time spent outside the defined scope is billed at $150/hour.

To keep processes streamlined and pricing accessible, we limit project communication to what is necessary to confirm formula, container, scent, labeling, and scheduling. Please review the relevant manufacturing page and the Private Label Checklist carefully before reaching out. Our process works best when clients are prepared to make clear decisions and move forward efficiently.

Payment & Pricing
*Prices are updated on this page as needed. Your invoice will reflect current pricing when your order is written. Invoices are valid for 14 days, and the deposit must be received within that timeframe for the invoice price to be honored.

A 50% non-refundable deposit is required to schedule your production run. The remaining balance will be requested a few days before your order is scheduled to ship. Orders will not ship until the balance due has been paid.

We accept wire transfer, Zelle, and cashier’s check for private label orders. We do not accept credit cards, regular check, or PayPal.

Lead time Production timeline is dependent on the current queue. Orders are slotted in as deposits are received and also based on container ETA.

Label Specs Label specs and label printer recommendations are provided upon request. Labels and labeling are not included in the production pricing above. If you would like us to apply labels that you provide, we charge $0.30 per sticker. You may also supply screen-printed containers instead of labels.

Labeling Guide  Please refer to the FDA FDA Labeling Guide

Labeling Claims  Please refer to the FDA FDA on Cosmetics Labeling Claims 

Documents and Certifications: Cosmetic products are not required to be FDA-approved before going to market in the U.S., and the FDA does not certify cosmetic manufacturing facilities. MoCRA Facility Registration: Island Deodorant qualifies for the small-business exemption from facility registration under MoCRA. If certifications or specific documentation are required, please let us know upfront, as we may not be able to provide them.  Learn more from the FDA here.

We do not hold third-party certifications such as USDA Organic or Leaping Bunny, and to keep our prices low we do not facilitate certification applications for private label clients. If your product will require such certifications, you would need to pursue them independently.

We cannot provide:
- Product stability testing
- GMP or ISO certification
- FDA certification (the FDA does not issue this for cosmetics)
- Certificates of Analysis (COAs)
- Safety Data Sheets (SDS)
- Exact percentage breakdowns of the formula

Location: We manufacture in and ship from Florida.

If you require production in a certified facility, such as an FDA-registered, GMP, or ISO-certified facility, we do have access to a USA-based manufacturing partner that meets those standards. However, this option is only available for large production runs of 10,000+ units per formula, and costs are significantly higher.

International Orders: We do not accept international orders. Manufacturing and shipping are available within the United States only.

Ingredients You can find all our ingredient lists on the individual product pages. If you do a customized formula, we will provide an ingredients list once the formula is finalized and approved.

All private label organic deodorant sales are final.  We manufacture private label orders using the same formulas, processes, and quality standards as the products sold under our own brand.

We believe in small businesses, so we strive to make smaller private label orders accessible and affordable for your start up.
