Manufacturing
RAW MATERIALS
The basic materials for the manufacturing of our candles are of high quality to ensure good combustion, without smoke, residue, and unpleasant odors. We use refined paraffin, vegetable oils, the finest essences soluble in paraffin, pigment-based colorants, and pure bleached and waxed cotton wick.
