Soy/Vegetable
candles are clean burning with hardly any sooty residue, and have a
low melting point, which means they burn cool. This allows their
long lasting, pleasant aromas to quickly scent the
air. Made from a renewable source, using no petroleum-based
paraffin, the candles are available in many wonderful
scents.
Q: What
is paraffin wax?
A: Paraffin wax is the by-product of petroleum.
Q.What is
the benefit of Soy/Veg wax candles?
A:
Soy/Veg Candles
have the potential to be another significant market for soybean oil,
which will be very helpful to the American Farmer.
When soy/veg candles represent just 10% of the existing candle
market it will require an additional 55 million pounds of "American
Grown" Soybean oil; not to mention the recycled plant and vegetable
matter that makes up a soy/veg candle!
Q:
How do I know if the candle I burn is paraffin?
A: Check the label... if it doesn't say "Soy Wax," it's
most likely made from paraffin. Second, the waxes look different.
Paraffin is a more transparent wax, and usually has dark
discolorations. Soy wax is more opaque and may have white
discolorations.
Q: What
should I know about soy wax?
A: Soy wax is toxin-free, which
means our candles won't emit the fumes and soot.
Soy wax burns slower and offer a longer lasting candle. Plus, soy
wax is easy to clean up... just use soap and water.
Q: What are your wicks made of?
A: Our wicks are
core free and lead free. They are made of 100% cotton.
