Which would you rather have burning in your home?

One of the most talked about attributes of soy candles is their ability to burn clean.

Paraffin, the waxy residue left behind in the refinement processing of petroleum, not only contains carbon but a host of other chemical compounds, some of which have been found to be toxic, and others labeled as carcinogens. Soy is the "solution to the pollution".

Soy wax is a novel product solution where everyone wins: consumers now have a clean burning candles from sustainable sources, and farmers have a rapidly growing new market. Soy wax is the first wax innovation in the candle industry in over a 100 years and is rapidly becoming the candle industry standard for the twenty first century. Soy is cost competitive with petroleum wax. Soy is the future.

SOY

Soy wax is made from soybeans and vegetables, both renewable resources.

Soy wax burns much cleaner and purer as it is all natural, non-toxic, and non-hazardous.

This wax is biodegradable leading to reduced landfills.

Soy wax residue can be washed away with warm water and soap.

Purchasing soy products supports the soy farmers of America, which stimulates our economy and lessens dependence on international resources.

PARAFFIN
Derived from petroleum, a limited resource

The burning of paraffin wax contributes to indoor air contamination by emitting petro-chemicals causing soot deposits and carcinogenic particulate matter.

This wax contains petroleum by-products and additives that inhibit biodegradability.

Paraffin wax residue is quite troublesome, often impossible, to remove.

Purchasing paraffin products not only supports our dependence on this crude oil but also supports an industry riddled with environmental faux pas.
