With more time being spent at home, an invigorating ambiance becomes vital. One excellent way to achieve this is through scented candles. However, the hidden truth is many candles release harmful toxins that can contaminate our indoor air and impact our health.
At Mint Sugar Candle Company, our exclusive soy wax candles aim to provide a safer, healthier alternative to standard paraffin candles. Let's explore why soy wax is a superior choice and showcase our captivating clean-burning candle range designed to make your home safe, refreshing, and homely.
Understanding Soy Wax and Its Benefits Soy wax candles, often overshadowed by their paraffin counterparts, offer a cleaner alternative. Whether you've unknowingly bought a cheap or costly candle, you might have bought a paraffin candle. These candles, made from a petroleum by-product, may contain toxins even after heavy processing.
In contrast, soy wax, derived from soybeans, is a clean-burning, sustainable alternative. Once the soybeans are harvested, they are cleaned, cracked, de-hulled, and rolled into flakes. We extract hydrogenated soybean oil from these flakes, leaving behind the residue for animal feed and other food sources.
Why Soy Wax is a Superior Alternative to Paraffin Wax Soy wax provides many eco-friendly advantages. It's a 100% natural product derived from renewable resources, while paraffin wax is non-renewable, sourced from petroleum. In addition, soy wax burns slower, yielding a long-lasting candle that fully utilizes its wax content.
Moreover, soy wax burns cleaner, producing less soot and not requiring chemical enhancers to carry fragrance. The outcome is a well-balanced, authentically fragrant candle, making it an obvious choice for candle connoisseurs.
