pure olive oil wax candle – turquoise – 120mm x 70mm

Olive pulp is a byproduct of olive oil production, and is finding a new purpose in the world of candle making. This is a sustainable alternative to traditional wax and offers several advantages.

Olive wax candles burn cleaner and longer than those made from paraffin wax. They produce minimal soot and release pleasant, natural scents. Olive wax is a renewable resource, making it an eco-friendly choice, and it’s hypoallergenic, making it suitable for individuals with sensitivities to traditional waxes.

The unique properties of olive wax result in candles with a distinctive appearance as they often display a crystalline texture and they burn with a soft, warm glow.

The candles on this page are unscented but olive wax can be combined with essential oils to give olive wax candles a soothing and aromatic ambiance. 

By essentially repurposing olive pulp in this way, candle makers are not only creating beautiful and functional products but also contributing a little bit more to a more sustainable future.
