Soy candles are made
from soywax, which
is hydrogenated
soybean oil.
Soywax was invented
in 1991 by Michael
Richards who was
looking for a
cheaper alternative
to beeswax. As
he entered the
candle industry in
1991 he realized
there was a growing
demand for natural
wax candles.
Soywax is often
mixed with
fragrances to
produce scented soy
candles.
SOY CANDLES ARE
AFFORDABLE
Beeswax is a great
natural alternative
to paraffin, but to
get the same results
as a soy-based
candle, it is very
expensive.
Soywax is a new
alternative to
paraffin wax that is
cost effective.
Soywax is also from
a renewable source.
SOYWAX IS ALL
NATURAL
Soywax is a favorite
of environmentally
conscious people
because it is not
made from petroleum,
like paraffin
candles.
Burning of soy
candles does not
increase the CO2
level in the
atmosphere.
SOY CANDLES LAST
LONGER
Soy candles last 50%
longer than paraffin
candles.
SCENTED CANDLES
DISTRIBUTE MORE
FLAVOR
The incorporation of
soybean oil lowers
the melting point of
the candle, which
translates into
cooler burning
candles and faster
scent dispersion. |
