Paraffin is one of the most popular wax types, known for providing a slow, steady, and smokeless burn while producing vibrant colors.

Characteristics: Consistency : Hard Appearance : White and Translucent Best Uses : Container Candles and Molds Long and clean burn Creates vibrant colors Versatile wax Requires no additional additives (other than fragrance and dyes) Application Guidelines: Melt wax slowly using a double boiler Pour wax at 170°F – 189°F after removing from heat Add up to 6% fragrance at 180°F – 190°F For wick recommendations, refer to our wick guide These are suggested ranges based on our in-house testing; always test first for best results.
