Why Rapeseed Wax?
100% Plant-based & sustainable!
It was our challenge to ourselves to create the most sustainable products possible. Working with local supplier and Europe originated raw materials were our key goal since the beginning.
Compared to many other plant-based wax alternatives, rapeseed is the only available option that is fully grown in Europe. It’s natural, non-toxic, renewable and biodegradable. Our rapeseed wax is grown in the Netherlands, Germany and the UK - making it the most eco-friendly choice with a lower carbon footprint than many imported plant waxes such as soy, coconut and palm wax. Also no natural environment will have to be destroyed to get the wax.
Rapeseed flower is a bright-yellow flowering member of the family Brassicaceae (mustard or cabbage family), cultivated mainly for its oil-rich seed. Because of its oil rich texture, it offers extended burn times, superb fragrance retention and scent throw.
