Why choose a soy candle?
You often ask us why our candles have all been made with soy wax, so today we try to summarize the main characteristics of our beloved ingredient and understand why it is so popular, especially in recent years.
The characteristics of soy wax
The soy wax contains only soybean oil, obtained from clean and hulled plants, without the addition of paraffin , an ingredient derived from petroleum and used for its low cost to the detriment of the quality of the product and above all of health, since it is of substances which, once burned, are dispersed into the environment and inhaled.
For this reason, MADA uses soy wax as a 100% natural ingredient that derives from vegetable soy, free of any type of ingredient harmful to humans or the environment.
The benefits of the soy candle
The advantages that a consumer has in buying a candle made of soy wax are many:
- The candle burns longer , as it burns at a lower temperature
- There is no paraffin, so the candle burns "cleaner", without black and harmful residues
- It is a sustainable choice , because it is created from soybean oil, a natural and renewable resource as well as biodegradable
- The scent is more delicate and non-toxic, so it does not affect the palate and the sense of smell in a too insistent way, which makes it also suitable for environments where we eat meals.
- Soy is able to absorb very well the perfumed oils inserted during the pouring phase
- It is totally non-toxic , it does not release CO2 into the air or toxic substances
