Soy Wax vs. Paraffin Wax

Soy candles produce practically no soot. Unlike this paraffin candle to the right.

Soy candles burn slower and last up to 50% longer than a paraffin candle of the same size.

Soy candles support U.S. soybean farmers whereas paraffin candles may be manufactured with foreign oil.

Soy wax does not require any additives. (Only fragrance oils and dyes are desired).

WHY SOY????

The soybean is one of the most versatile products used today. It has been a high protein source for alot of people for thousands of years. However, newer resources are being found for this abundant legume.

Research shows efforts with the soy and its uses have resulted in a vast array of goods for the consumer such as body & skin care products, hair products, cleaning products, paint removers, crayons, pens, and yes even soy candle wax.

Clean up is easy for any spilled soy wax with soap and warm water.

Soy Wax burns cooler than Pariffin Wax and can be used for massage purposes once the flame is snuffed out.

Candles made from soy wax do not emit the soot and fumes that are attributed to run-of-the-mill paraffin candles. You may have witnessed this before. You buy a paraffin candle that smells nice, it has a nice color, the packaging is wonderful, then you light it. Within minutes, you can see the black residue rising from the flame, staining the jar or container from which these candles burn. Just from the very first time you light it. Continued use of these paraffin candles will not only further blacken the jar or container it sits in, it can blacken your walls, ceilings, vents, AC units, heaters, curtains or blinds, and even carpets! Now, just imagine breathing that nasty soot into your lungs.

This candle at the top, is just one example of what a Pariffin Wax Candle looks like with all the soot around the top of the jar during burning time.

Burning paraffin candles made Steel my Doberman sneeze something awful too!

Soy candles help our environment. Soy helps the U.S. economy & farmers. The production and burning of soy wax candles can greatly benefit the American agricultural economy.
