We understand that there is a lot of information about different types of candles. Many candles you buy for bargain prices in the store are manufactured in Asia. Even though wicks containing lead are not allowed in the US they might still be in a lot of imported candles. High levels of lead in the air pose serious health risks especially in children.(1,2,3)

 

 

We believe that soy candles have the following advantages over paraffin candles:

 

-they are natural, a renewable resource made from soy beans grown in the US

 

-they are environmentally friendly since they emit less carbon dioxide into the atmosphere

 

-they last longer - up to 50% longer burn time

 

-they are non-toxic and non-carcinogenic

 

-they are biodegradable and clean up with soap and water

 

-they burn at a cooler temperature so the fragrance is distributed better and no double-scenting is necessary

 

-they produce less black soot - up to 90% less

 

 

 

 

To ensure that your candle burns with a nice steady flame always keep your wick trimmed.
