Why
Soy Wax?
Soy
Wax Candles are made of ORGANIC COMPOUNDS that release NO
TOXINS when burned
Soybean wax replaces non-renewable petroleum wax with
a renewable, environmentally preferable alternative
Soybean wax comes from sustainable agricultural sources
Consumers are DEMANDING a safe alternative
Due to LOW MELTING POINT soy wax BURNS COOLER, LONGER
and SAFER than paraffin
This feature also allows fragrances to be released
into the air faster and longer
Soybean wax is water soluble and can be easily extracted
from glass, tin, and other material for efficient recycling.
CLEAN-BURNING with NO PETRO SOOT EMISSIONS
Soy wax burns 25% longer
Soy wax supports the American Farmer!
Paraffin
or paraffin blend candles:
Paraffin
is a by-product of the petroleum refinery industry, leftover
residue of refined petroleum.
Soot
given off from burning paraffin candles is the same as burning
diesel fuel or fumes from a diesel engine.
Soot
particles travel deep into the lungs. Breathing soot is not
recommended at all!
Tests
show that paraffin candles can produce a variety of harmful
substances, including benzene & toluene, known carcinogens.
Testing
by the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) has found over
20 dangerous compounds in SIGNIFICANT quantities including
acetone, benzene, toluene and lead.
The
soot from these materials can contain carcinogens, neurotoxins
and reproductive toxins.
The
American Lung Association says, "Burning paraffin candles
can emit small amounts of toxins into the air."
