Candles from Palm Kernel Wax
To extend the life and ensure the safe use of candles please follow the care and safety instructions below.
The total burn time of the pillar candle is approximately 100 hours and for dinner and long candles ca. 8 hours per candle. This can vary based on the circumstances like the length and type of the wick and location (path of the draft).
Lengthening the lifetime of our products
To reduce the environmental impact of our products even more, please reevaluate the end-of-life moment of our products.
- A white haze may appear on the candle. This is a normal process in a natural canlde. Polish with a soft cloth to make the colour shine.
- Trim the wick regularly to 1 cm in length to prevent the candle from burning too quickly.
- Make sure the 1st burn melts the entire surface of the candle. This prevents the candle from 'tunneling'.
- Place the candle on a flat, heat resistant surface and keep it away from draft.
- If a candle has layers, they may come loose. This does not affect the burning quality.
- Do not place the candle close to a heat source or sunlight to avoid melting or fading of the colour.
- Never leave a burning candle unattended
- Keep away from children and pets
- Place candles at a distance of 10 cm from each other to prevent candles from dripping
- Keep candles away from draft and flammable materials (before lighting the candle), this also includes other (paraffin) candles
- Place the candle on a flat heat-resistant surface. Please make sure that the candle is fixed and cannot fall over
- Handle with care. Palm wax is very dense and brittle, it might crack when dropped. Be gentle when twisting candles into holders.
- Do not place a burnt match or other materials in the candle grease (do not light the candle with another candle)
- Use a snuffer to extinguish a candle or blow carefully while holding your hand behind the candle
- Do not add water or any other fluid to the candle
- Do not move a burning candle
- Place the candle straight up to prevent the candle from dripping and smoking
- Do not mix paraffin wax or any other burning material with palm kernel wax
