PALM WAX FOR CANDLES - PALMS RESOURCES
WHAT IS PALM WAX? • Palm wax belongs to a group of waxes called vegetable wax. These vegetable waxes are made purely from a plant extract. Palm wax is an all-natural, renewable resource and suitable for making various types of candles. Due to its environmentally friendly attributes, palm wax offers a whole new choice for candle makers who market sustainable or renewable resource based extensions to their candle lines. But there have been concerns about deforestation, felling of other trees to grow Oil Palm trees. That's why recently, suppliers prefer palm wax for candles and oil from countries like Colombia and Brazil where producers use sustainable Agricultural methods and supply in USA, Mexico, Nigeria.
PALM WAX melting point • Palm wax has a very high melt point and therefore requires a hotter flame to melt the candle; this results in a slower burn than most other candles. Palm wax is an odourless, hard wax with a high melting point (140°F). That is not the highest of all waxes but it means palm wax has a higher temperature than soy wax and low-density paraffin wax.
PALM WAX benefits • Natural Just the fact that palm wax is natural is enough advantage. It is not known to release harmful toxins into the air and palm wax candles are safe to use. So, people with asthma or other respiratory issues that are trying to avoid paraffin wax would find a good alternative in palm wax. • Clean Burn The type of wax used to make a palm wax for candlesis part of what determines the amount of soot (black residue) that it would release when burned. All types of waxes produce soot no matter how little. But palm wax releases significantly less amount of soot compared to its main rivals: paraffin wax and soy wax.
Versatile Though most palm wax candles are container candles, you can actually use it to make any type of candle: container candles, standalone candles (pillar and tapers), votive candles etc. Soy wax is more popular but it is too soft to be used to make a standalone candle (unless it is blended with another type of wax or additives are added). Palm wax beats it in this respect. • Long Lasting Palm wax is hard and has a high melting point. This makes candles made with it burn slower and last longer than some other types of wax, especially soy wax
