Most people are quite familiar with paraffin wax candles. They have been sold to consumers for decades. What most people do not know is that paraffin candles are made from petroleum byproducts (Oil) and are known to emit harmful toxins, which are seen as black soot. This soot is then deposited on the walls, ceilings, and fabrics in your home. In fact, the insurance industry pays approximately $4 million per year due to candle soot. Furthermore, most paraffin candle wicks have a metallic (Zinc) core which, when burned, add additional toxins to your home environment. This is important for consumers to know, especially when small children are involved. Many people in the health and well-being fields will tell you that burning paraffin candles in the home is not good for your family's respiratory system.
Soy wax, on the other hand, is all natural. Due to the nature of its composition, soy wax has a much lower melting point, burns cooler, and is virtually soot free. Soy wax candles burn safer and last approximately 50% longer than their paraffin counterparts. An added benefit with soy wax is that it is made from an easily .
American farmers grow soybeans primarily in the Midwest. The oil is extracted from the bean and in turn, manufactured into wax. By purchasing soy candles we help support our farmers here in the United States.
Paraffin candles are usually the lowest priced candles, but are also of lower quality. Bees wax candles are of higher quality, but are much more expensive. Soy wax gives you an economical alternative with superior quality and added for your family.
Although there are clear advantages to soy candles, they can be produced in non-sustainable ways which negate their environmental advantages. If a healthy, environmentally sound candle is a concern, choose soy candles carefully to ensure that you are promoting a healthy environment.
At Bright Shine Candles we use all natural soy wax, free of herbicides and pesticides. Our soy wax is made using soybeans from U.S. farms only! Our soy wax is non-toxic and burns at a cooler temperature for worry free use around children. And we never use metal (Zinc) core wicks; we only use 100% all natural core-less cotton wicks, interwoven with thin paper filaments. This promotes cleaner and more even burning.
At Bright ShineCandles we cannot think of a downside to purchasing soy candles. They burn cooler, cleaner, and are safer than paraffin candles. Soy candles support American agriculture, are better for the environment, and are an excellent choice for gift giving to the special people in your life. A is an endearing gift that anyone is sure to love. Light Up Your Life with BRIGHT SHINE CANDLES.
