Palm wax candles are truly the best!
Palm wax is harvested from the palm kernal of the palm trees (see images above), never harming the plant. These candles are designed to burn cleanly with virtually no soot. The properties of palm wax create a pearlescent, crystallized appearance with a strong scent throw hot or cold!
A Sobering Discovery
On June 24 2010, The Economist (an English newspaper) published an article titled, "The Other Oil Spill" which examined the Asian palm oil market examinining concerns regarding destroying rain forests in the harvesting of palm oil, in detail. You want to make sure your palm wax source has a reputable growing policy. Explain that you are concerned about the impact on rain forests. Our wax is RSPO certified and the curve is now trending for all manufacturers to follow these guidelines. Here is the link to the RSPO organization: http://www.rspo.org/
