Melting temperature attribute will soon be a required step for ASINs
To help improve the customer experience, we’ve added a melting temperature attribute for ASINs. Starting April 22, 2021, this attribute will be a required step when you fill out information for the following:
- New ASINs
- All existing ASINs when you update any attribute on a product information page
For meltable items, such as chocolate, lip balms, and wax-based products, select Yes for is heat sensitive and provide information about the product’s melting temperature.
Although melting temperature is currently an optional attribute, we recommend that you update your affected ASINs now so that they are current as of April 22. If you offer temperature-sensitive ASINs that Amazon also offers, the product attributes may have been updated already.
We appreciate your cooperation as we continually strive to improve the customer experience.

Does this mean you are going to change the layout of the Inventory Loader template again or are we going to be forced to make each listing manually?

I have never looked at melting temp when buying lip balm. Or chocolate.

Does this have anything to do with deciding which items are stored in temperature controlled warehouses?
And can I add a melting temperature if storing in extreme heat can cause the adhesives in my products to fail even if the item itself is not technically heat-sensitive?

Does this really pertain to all items on Amazon?
Like Fitness Equipment? Do I have to go heat test my fitness stuff?
Yep, it melts at 3280 degrees.

what is the melting temperature of chocolate? is this according to “science” or anyone can say what they want? How do you define melting temp for chocolate since there is an evolution, it STARTS to melt but the top part of a bar of chocolate can be melted, while the bottom is still solid. so is the melting temperature when it STARTS to melt or when it is fully melted? and how do you define “starting to melt” when it softens or when part of it liquifies? and if it takes an hour for it to liquify as the temperateur rise, say from 70 - 90 degres, at which degree do you define the melting temperature. in other words, another dumb thing amazon is doing that no human on earth can figure out
