Switch to Soy . . . Candles!
Why soy wax?
CLEAN BURNING
Soy wax is non-toxic and burns cleaner than traditional paraffin wax, with no petrol-carbon soot which can blacken walls, ceilings and furniture, contaminate ventilation ductwork in your home, as well as add toxic carcinogens into the air you breathe.
LONG BURNING
Soy candles burn slower and cooler than paraffin wax, creating a longer burning candle.
RENEWABLE RESOURCE
Soybeans are a renewable resource, unlike paraffin, which consists of petroleum.
BIODEGRADABLE
Since soybeans are vegetables, soy wax, which is basically made from hydrogenated soybean oil, is naturally biodegradable. Soy wax is also easier to remove from fabrics and other surfaces than is paraffin wax.
Soy candles are simply better for you, your family and the environment.
