The therapeutic, healing benefits of inhaling Pure Essential Oils are well known today. These concentrated liquids have been long used in medicine and Aromatherapy practice to heal a variety of ailments and to revitalise the body, mind and soul.
We have coupled the healing properties of essential oils with our all natural Pure Soy Wax to create our quality line of Aromatherapy Soy Candles, hand poured and crafted in Canberra Australia, by us using our Premium 100% Pure Soy Bean Wax.
We use undiluted Pure Essential Oil blends. The scent throw is similar to ( or even slightly stronger, depending on the blend) burning essential oils in a burner, except our soy candles are the no mess, no fuss option because they are burned in a jar/container.
We do NOT add fragrance oils to our Aromatherapy Soy Candles to increase scent throw - we like our Aromatherapy collection to be as nature intended!
All Green Scents Soy Candles have 100% cotton, lead free wicks - absolutely no traces of lead.
Buyer Beware!
There are various Aromatherapy Candles on the market these days - but have you checked to see whether they are in fact paraffin candles (and many are if they are not specifically labelled as Soy Candles) or are Soy Blends (and are labelled as Soy) that contain paraffin or other waxes and synthetic additives? Some "Soy" candles can contain as little as 25% soy wax!
Not only are you harming your health (which is not what you want when buying aromatherapeutic products) and contributing to pollution of the environment by burning petroleum based paraffin wax, but you are also not getting value for money or to put it another way, "more bang for your buck".
Why Soy?
All of this means that you will be benefit from the therapeutic properties of aromatherapy essential oils without harming your health and the environment because Green Scents soy candles:
·Do NOT contain paraffin wax (used predominantly in the candle industry), proven to be harmful your health and the environment
·Do NOT contain beeswax or other animal by-products, so they are Vegan friendly and Kosher
·Are FREE from pesticides, herbicides and Genetically Modified material
·Are biodegradable and water soluble
·Burn cleaner, longer and cooler than other candles, including regular paraffin wax candles. This means virtually NO soot, absolutely NO black petro-soot—cleaner walls and lungs!
These are just some of the benefits gained from burning our Aromatherapy soy candles in your home and surrounds.
About Our Soy Wax
Care needs to be exercised when buying soy wax candles - are you buying 100% pure soy candles? You should study the label. There are soy wax candles on the market that are made from a combination of soy wax and paraffin wax - they can be called "Soy Blend" candles or just plain "Soy" candles.
Relax in the knowledge that when you buy Green Scents candles you are getting soy candles that are made from 100% pure soy bean wax.
Our soy wax has been subjected to analysis and scrutiny for the presence of pesticides, herbicides and genetically modified materials by experienced third party Accredited Laboratories. All results proved that our soy wax contained NONE of these substances - we truly make pure soy wax candles.
Every kilogram of Green Scents Soy Wax is analysed in a state of the art laboratory to assure its quality. Only after receiving a Certificate of Analysis guaranteeing high standards and purity, does any soy wax leave our manufacturer's processing plant.
We take the quality and purity of our soy wax seriously! We expect the best, and when only the best will do, choose Green Scents soy candles everytime!
Our chosen soybean wax is made fromsustainable soy beancrops, whereby selected farmers encourage growth without depletion.
When soy beans are processed, they are crushed and pressed to separate the soybean meal from the soybean oil. In each bushel (27.2kg) approximately 22.2kg of soy meal and 5 kg of soybean oil are produced.
The soy meal contains the soybean protein and it is from this meal that animal feeds and foods for human consumption (such as soy milk, tofu and textured soy protein for vegetarians) are made.
Soy bean wax is made from the soybean oil left over from the bushel. Our soybean manufacturer then purifies the crude soybean oil to give pristine soybean oil which then goes through a process called hydrogenation turning it into a solid. All our waxes are made from soybeans with exacting consistency from batch to batch, even though the actual crops themselves may vary.
Unlike other soy waxes on the market, our soy bean wax contains NO paraffin wax (usually mixed into some soy waxes to give a smoother appearance and added strength) and NO beeswax products, making Green Scents soy candles 100% vegetable based and suitable for vegans. Our soy wax is made from food grade soy bean oil and also meets Kosher Certification criteria.
So, are your candles killing you? Why not try our Soy Candles? We are confident that you will enjoy them as much as we do!
