NATURAL COCO WAX PROS

• 100% NATURAL WAX
• BURNS CLEANER THAN PARAFFIN-BASED WAXES WITH SIGNIFICANTLY LESS SOOT
• SUPPORTS A CLEANER, MORE NATURAL CANDLE FORMULATION
• HEALTHIER ALTERNATIVE FOR BOTH MAKERS AND END USERS

CONSIDERATIONS

NATURAL COCO WAX IS A 100% NATURAL WAX. AS WITH MOST NATURAL WAXES, IT IS MORE TECHNICAL TO WORK WITH AND HAS CERTAIN CHARACTERISTICS THAT SHOULD BE CONSIDERED BEFORE PURCHASING:

• REQUIRES LARGER WICK SIZES THAN PARAFFIN-BLENDED WAXES. MANY CANDLE MAKERS WILL NEED TO SWITCH FROM A SINGLE WICK TO A DOUBLE WICK FOR VESSELS LARGER THAN 3" IN DIAMETER.
• SOME TEXTURE AND FROSTING MAY OCCUR. HOWEVER, COMPARED TO MANY OTHER 100% NATURAL WAXES ON THE MARKET, OUR FORMULATION HAS BEEN OPTIMIZED TO MINIMIZE THESE EFFECTS.
• WHEN EXPOSED TO HIGH HEAT DURING BURNING, PARTICULARLY WITH WOOD WICKS, THE WAX MAY DEVELOP A REDDISH-BROWN APPEARANCE.
• IF LEFT IN A MELTING TANK FOR EXTENDED PERIODS, THE WAX MAY ALSO DEVELOP A REDDISH-BROWN COLOR.
• GLASS ADHESION CAN BE MORE CHALLENGING TO ACHIEVE CONSISTENTLY DUE TO THE NATURAL PROPERTIES OF THE WAX.
• HOLDS A LOWER FRAGRANCE LOAD COMPARED TO SOME BLENDED WAXES. WE RECOMMEND A MAXIMUM FRAGRANCE LOAD OF 12.5%.
• DURING HOT SUMMER TEMPERATURES, THE WAX IS MORE SENSITIVE AND MAY EXPERIENCE SYNERESIS (FRAGRANCE OIL SEPARATION FROM THE WAX).

OUR RECOMMENDATION

IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR THE CLEANEST, MOST NATURAL CANDLE POSSIBLE, NATURAL COCO WAX IS AN EXCELLENT CHOICE. WHILE IT REQUIRES A BIT MORE EXPERIENCE AND ATTENTION DURING PRODUCTION, MANY MAKERS FIND THE BENEFITS WELL WORTH IT.

BY CHOOSING A 100% NATURAL WAX, YOU'RE INVESTING IN A CLEANER-BURNING, HEALTHIER PRODUCT FOR YOURSELF, YOUR CUSTOMERS, AND THE ENVIRONMENT.

KEEP WAX STORED AT A LOW TEMP TO AVOID CHANGING COLOR AND BURNING THE WAX

MAX FRAGRANCE LEVEL 10%
ADD THE FRAGRANCE OR ESSENTIAL OIL, REMOVE FROM THE HEAT, AND STIR FOR 2 MINUTES.

WE SUGGEST TESTING EVERY FRAGRANCE AS THEY ALL CAN BURN DIFFERENTLY AND SOMETIMES NEED A SMALLER WICK OR LARGER THAN OUR RECOMMENDATION BELOW

COCONUT APRICOT WAX IS A CREAMY, ONE-POUR CONTAINER WAX MADE FROM A VEGAN BLEND OF NATURAL COCONUT, SOY, AND APRICOT, WITH A SMALL AMOUNT OF HIGHLY REFINED, FOOD-GRADE PARAFFIN WAX.

*WE INCLUDE A SMALL AMOUNT OF FOOD-GRADE PARAFFIN TO ENHANCE THE WAX'S PERFORMANCE AND ENSURE AN EXCELLENT HOT THROW. SCIENTIFIC STUDIES HAVE SHOWN THAT PARAFFIN WAX BURNS JUST AS CLEANLY AS SOY, BEESWAX, OR PALM WAX, AND THE HIGHLY REFINED, FOOD-GRADE NATURE OF OUR PARAFFIN QUALIFIES IT AS A NATURAL CATEGORY INGREDIENT. FOR MORE INFORMATION, PLEASE REVIEW THIS STUDY PERFORMED BY THE NATIONAL CANDLE ASSOCIATION.
