Coconut Soy Wax

You may have not figured this out yet but we get excited about Coconut wax and let me tell you why...

The Egyptians first invented wax candles over 7000 years ago. Since their inception, research has been ongoing to find the best candle wax. And while the search isn’t over yet, the perfect candle wax currently (in our opinion) in existence is coconut wax.

The coconut wax candle is created primarily from the high-melt coconut oil. It blends in perfectly with other natural, harder waxes to create a breathtaking burning candle. The fantastic aroma of coconut wax candles is simply refreshing. This slow-burning candle is what you need for that lasting scent.

Below are some of the benefits of our coconut wax candles.

COCONUTS WAX IS SUSTAINABLE

You know that paraffin is not a sustainable product. Paraffin is a common candle wax made from fossil fuels, and it comes with a host of problems. Among these are toxic fumes, heavy soot, and the fact that fossil fuels contribute to global warming.

Although paraffin is one of the least sustainable candle waxes available, many other waxes aren't that great for the environment either. Palm oil, for example, burns cleanly and has many features that make it suitable for candle burning. But despite being from a renewable source, it is terrible for the environment.

This is due to the vast amount of forest in the Amazon and other sensitive locations burned to make way for palm oil farms. In the end, although palm oil could be grown sustainably, it is not a sustainable choice.

On the other hand, coconuts do not require pesticides or fertiliser to grow and are harvested by hand, eliminating the need for heavy machinery. Not only does growing coconuts lift these farmers out of poverty, growing sustainably has given them access to better markets and more financial options.

COCONUT WAX HAS A SUPERIOR SCENT THROW

Coconut wax can hold a lot of scent in its wax, as much as 12% although we only use 8%. This makes it a great choice for scenting with both fragrance oils and essential oils.

On top of holding a lot of scent, coconut wax also has a great hot and cold throw. When a customer opens a jar to smell a candle, they will get a clear impression of what it smells like and can more easily decide if it's something they want to purchase.

Coconut wax doesn't disappoint after it's heated up either. It is superior to every other type of wax in terms of scent throw and can even be used for essential oils, which can sometimes have a weak scent in other types of candles due to how little of the essential oil can safely be imbued in them.

If a creamy, softly developing scent is what you're after, coconut wax is definitely the way to go.

COCONUT WAX IS CLEAN BURNING

Nobody likes soot, which is why a smokey candle is not a favourable trait. On top of this, some types of wax, such as paraffin, can cause a range of health problems related to their smoke.

When lit, candles that are not clean burning can let loose tons of toxic fumes, including volatile compounds linked to migraines and asthma. 

Because of this, a candle that can burn cleanly without releasing any toxic fumes is, of course, the ideal candle. Coconut wax really excels in this regard, as they are non-toxic and slow-burning. Coconut wax has one of the longest burn times out there and never leaves soot in your home (unless you forger to trim your wick).

High-quality candles will always make soot less likely than low-quality ones, and coconut wax offers some of the best quality burns out there.

Our goal has been and will always be to grow and improve within our business. Which means we may not always feel the same or look the same but this will only be to improve and provide you with the best possible product.

In the meantime, we believe that coconut wax is the best option available on the market and that's why we are so excited to share it with you.
