We feel very strongly about our choice of wax type, as we have huge concerns over soy and the deforestation that is occurring in Brazil and likewise for palm. As avid bee-keepers ourselves, we also like to let the bees keep their stash too - so feel our unique blend is the best combination.
A candle which is well made using any variation of wax type should not create any smoke when burning. However, if the wick does become too long or a draught disturbs the flame, small amounts of unburned carbon particles, or soot, will escape as a visible wisp of smoke. No matter the wax type. This soot is not harmful and any candle will soot if the flame is disturbed. Our candles do not pose any adverse effects to the environment and the burning of our candles do not emit any hazardous substances. The blend of mineral and vegetable wax used to make our candles comes from highly refined materials and does not contain any harmful substances. This purity fulfils highest quality demands and is tested on a regular basis.
Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions regarding the use and make up of our candles.
