Fire tips

We love candles and want to make sure that you can enjoy your candles optimally, safely and for a long time. In our candle studio we constantly test our products on things like burning time and wick size. Here are 6 handy tips to get the most out of your candles:

• Keep your wick short: A shorter wick (max. 1 cm) will produce a smaller flame, less heat, and longer burn time.
• Melt the candle layer by layer: Let the top layer melt completely to prevent tunneling.
• Do not burn your candle for too long: Burn the candle for a maximum of 3 hours per session for optimal use and safety.
• Keep the wick centered: Adjust the wick after burning to prevent crooked burning.
• Leave a small layer of wax: Leave some wax to prevent the glass from overheating.
• Do not blow out your candle: Extinguish the candle by dipping the wick in the wax to prevent smoke and skewing.

Safety regulations

• Read instructions: Always check sticker instructions before use.
• Remove packaging: Remove all stickers and packaging before lighting the candle.
• Keep the wick short and straight: No longer than 1 cm. Cut if smoke or soot is formed.
• Use a suitable candle holder: non-flammable, stable and suitable.
• At least 10 cm between candles: Avoid heat transfer and dripping.
• Avoid drafts: Keep candles away from windows, doors and walkways.
• Away from heat sources: No stoves, fireplaces or direct sunlight.
• Safety for children & pets: Always keep out of reach.
• Do not burn for more than 3-4 hours: Then let it rest for at least 1 hour.
• Prevent tunnels: Let the wax melt evenly, especially with wide candles.
• Do not move while burning: Allow to cool completely first.
• Ventilate after use: Provide fresh air after burning.
• Gets hot: Do not touch a hot candle. Always be careful!
• Never leave unattended: Always stay near a burning candle.
• No foreign objects in the wash: Do not put matches or leftovers in the wash.
• Use a candle snuffer: Do not blow out, and certainly do not use water!
• Please note symbols: Refer to the symbols on the bottom or packaging of the candle.
