Candle Making Supplies - Wax

Our apologies for the small price increase on wax products. This has come from the manufacturers and we have only increased the price by the same amount they have, our profit margins remain as small as ever, giving you the best price around for the best quality products.

The paraffin wax products have increased because of the ever increasing price of oil and the soy wax products have increased because the wholesale price of soy beans has increased dramatically, this has been caused by the sudden massive demand for soy beans by the bio-fuel manufacturers, soy is a major component in bio-diesel fuels. You can expect the price of soy waxes to keep increasing as bio-fuels become more popular and the amount of soy available for making wax with reduces.

Microcrystalline Soft wax

Microcrystalline wax, soft. The main purpose of this wax is to permit increased fragrance levels. Fragrance binds itself to the crystal structure of the wax and as this wax has greatly increased crystal content it permits a higher level of fragrance to be added to your candle with the resultof giving a greater throw.

Microcrystalline soft is a very sticky wax, so you must never use this wax in latex and silicone moulds, microcrystalline soft waxes of all types will cause the wax to stick to latex and silicone with the possibilty of tearing your mould when you release it. The only safe additive for latex moulds is vybar or in silicone moulds you can use vybar or stearin, see above.
