BEKRO officially lists colour code 6137-61 as Blackberry.

Recommended Dosage

A good starting dosage is approximately 0.1% of the wax weight.

For example:

• 100 g wax – approx. 0.1 g dye;
• 500 g wax – approx. 0.5 g dye;
• 1000 g wax – approx. 1 g dye.

At a 0.1% dosage, one 10 g pack is theoretically sufficient to colour approximately 10 kg of wax.

For a richer and deeper Blackberry shade, the dosage can be increased to approximately 0.2% (2 g/kg) depending on the wax and desired result.

How to Use

BEKRO dye is designed for colouring candle wax throughout. Add the dye to fully melted wax and stir thoroughly until dissolved and evenly distributed.

The final shade will depend on:

• the type and natural colour of the wax;
• dye concentration;
• fragrance oils and other additives;
• production and cooling conditions.

Vegetable waxes generally produce softer, less intense colours than paraffin wax. The dosage may therefore need to be adjusted to achieve a deep berry shade in your chosen wax.

We recommend making a small test candle before producing larger batches and assessing the final colour only after the wax has completely set.

Natural waxes may also develop frosting or pull away from the sides of the container. These effects are related to the properties of the wax and do not necessarily indicate a problem with the dye.
