ECO Wick Infromation
The ECO Wick series is designed specifically for natural waxes like soy wax. It is a flat, core less,
cotton wick with unique thin paper filaments interwoven for burn stability.
- This braiding technique also greatly improves rigidity compared to standard cotton and paper cored wicks.
- The specially treated paper
threads provide a controlled curling of the wick making the ECO wick series self-trimming, which results in
minimized mushrooming, soot and smoke.
- ECO wicks are particularly successful in lower melt-point vegetable
and paraffin waxes.
- ECO wicks are recommended for container candles and are generally used in natural
wax blends containing less than 30% paraffin.
- They have been designed to significantly reduce the
"afterglow" and smoke often seen in paper cored wicks.
- An important difference to note with our
wick are that the wicks have been primed with high melt point Natural Vegetable wax rather than paraffin
wax, enabling you to market your candles as all natural candles.
- Each wick has been cut to the specified
length, primed with a vegetable wax, and come with a 20mm base and 6mm neck metal wick tab.

DISCLAIMER: This data is intended to indicate a general relationship between the wick sizes noted. Individual results will vary depending on the wax type, color, fragrance and the size and shape of the candle produced. Because of the many variables involved, we can not guarantee the final results obtained. The best and safest way to determine the appropriate wick is to test burn and document over and over. |
