Wax for Container Candles

Discover waxes for container candles – candles poured into glass jars, tins and other suitable candle vessels. These waxes are generally softer than waxes designed for pillar or moulded candles and are formulated to be burned in the same container in which the wax sets.

Our range includes different plant-based waxes and wax blends, allowing you to choose according to the desired surface finish, hardness, adhesion to the container and overall candle formulation.

How to Choose Wax for Container Candles

Different waxes may vary in hardness, melting and pouring temperatures, adhesion to the container, surface appearance and recommended fragrance load. There is no single wax that is best for every candle – the right choice depends on the container, wick, fragrance oil, dye and desired final result.

Always follow the technical information for the specific wax and carry out a full burn test with the selected wax, fragrance oil, dye, wick and container before larger-scale production.
