From
Aromatherapy soy candles to Wholesale soy candles
There are lots of reasons to choose soy
candles.
You can have virtually any candle you want - from soy pillar
candles in a huge variety of shapes and sizes, soy scented
candles, unscented soy candles, soy tea light candles, votive
soy candles, to aromatherapy soy scented candles - you name it,
someone is manufacturing it....
It's not surprising that soy wax candles are growing so
rapidly in popularity, particularly among environmentalists;
you get everything you could wish for in a candle, in terms of
scent, color, shape and size - and you get all the advantages
of soy.
Health claim for soy wax
"Healthier" is one of the most common claims.
Because soy has a vegetable base, it has no petroleum
by-products such as those thrown off by conventional
candles.
Soy is also said to be less likely to induce allergic reactions
in sensitive people.
Soy candles produce much less soot. They are not soot-free (no
candle can ever be soot-free), but soy scented candles produce
up to 95% less soot than their paraffin equivalents.
This translates into a healthier environment and no damage to
walls, hangings and furniture.
Soy wax has a lower melting point, so it burns cooler and
longer - anything up to 50% longer than a normal candle.
