Coconut Wax LYS#050

• Coconut wax is a plant‑based wax derived from the oil (or meat) of coconuts.

• It contains no petroleum/paraffin, no synthetic additives, and is typically vegan, cruelty‑free, and sustainable, making it a popular choice for environmentally conscious candle makers and consumers.

• Coconut wax often appears as a smooth, creamy-white solid with a neutral base scent (i.e. it doesn’t carry a strong “coconut smell”), which makes it an excellent blank canvas for fragrance oils.

✅ Key Features & Benefits

• Clean burning & low soot — Candles made with coconut wax burn more cleanly compared with many traditional waxes, producing minimal soot and fewer pollutants.

• Excellent scent throw (cold & hot) — Coconut wax holds and disperses fragrance oils very effectively, giving strong, even, and long‑lasting fragrance when unlit (cold throw) and when burning (hot throw).

• Smooth, creamy texture and aesthetic finish — It yields a smooth, luxurious-looking surface in container candles, giving candles a premium appearance.

• Slow, consistent burn / Long burn time — Coconut wax burns at a slower, more controlled rate than many waxes, meaning candles last longer, offering better value and longevity.

• Eco‑friendly & Sustainable — Since it’s derived from coconuts, a renewable resource, coconut wax is biodegradable and more environmentally responsible than petroleum-based (paraffin) waxes.

• Neutral base — versatile for fragrance & color — Because of its neutral (virtually odorless) wax base and white/creamy color, it’s easy to add fragrance oils or colorants without interference, making it flexible for scented candles, decorative candles, or custom blends.

• Good adhesion in container candles — Particularly suited for container (jar) candles, coconut wax tends to adhere well to glass or other vessels, with clean surfaces and minimal “wet spots.”

🕯 Typical Uses & Applications

Coconut wax is widely used for:

• Container candles (jar candles, tin candles) and other scented candle products.

• Luxury / premium scented candles, home fragrance products, and aromatherapy candles — especially when strong, clean scent throw is desired.

• Blended wax formulations — Often blended with other natural waxes (like soy wax, beeswax, rapeseed wax) to optimize texture, melting point, cost, and burning performance.

• Eco‑conscious or vegan candle lines — For customers seeking “natural”, “paraffin‑free”, “sustainable” options.
