Natural Candles
Natural Candles UK
Natural candles are made with plant-based waxes such as soy wax or a soy and coconut blended wax. Natural candles are a healthier and an eco-friendlier alternative to traditional candles, which are often made with paraffin wax, a petroleum byproduct. Natural candles are non-toxic and release no harmful pollutants into the air. They are also sustainable candles, biodegradable and compostable.

Modern-Day Candle Chandler
A Candle Chandler? - "a maker and seller of tallow, wax candles, and also usually soap".
We are a modern-day natural candle chandler, hand pouring soy wax candles using traditional methods and skills but also other fragrance items such as reed diffusers and wax melts.
Soy Natural Candles
Our natural candles are hand poured in Pembrokeshire, Wales, UK in small batches. Our candles are made from.
- natural, plant-based soy candle waxes.
- wood wicks wherever appropriate or eco-friendly cotton wicks.
- renewable, sustainable resources with as low a carbon footprint as possible.
- packaging that is plastic free, recyclable and often biodegradable.
Without exception, our candles are made from sustainable, plant-based soy candle waxes. We do not use paraffin, palm oil or beeswax. No dyes, colourants or any additives are added to our candle waxes. The colours of our candle wax are simply the natural colours of the soy wax and fragrances.
Benefits of Natural Candles
- They are made from natural materials. Natural candles are made from plant-based waxes, such as soy, rapeseed, or coconut waxes. These waxes are renewable and sustainable, and they are free of harmful chemicals and toxins.
- They burn cleaner. Natural candles burn cleaner than traditional candles made from paraffin wax. Paraffin wax is a byproduct of the petroleum industry, and it can release harmful chemicals into the air when it is burned. Natural candles, on the other hand, do not release these harmful chemicals.
- They burn longer. Natural candles burn longer than traditional candles because they have a lower melting point. This means that they do not need to be burned as hot in order to melt, which saves energy and money.
- They have a more pleasant scent. Natural candles are scented with essential oils, which have a more pleasant and natural scent than the synthetic fragrances that are used in traditional candles.
- They are biodegradable and recyclable. Natural candles are made from natural materials, so they are biodegradable and recyclable. This means that they can be disposed of without harming the environment.
