Forager Picks - The Soy Wax Revolution!

In the world of candles, not all waxes are created equal. As consumers become more environmentally conscious, the demand for sustainable and eco-friendly products has surged. One standout in this green revolution is soy wax, a natural alternative that offers numerous benefits over traditional paraffin wax. At Forager Provisions, we are proud to stock Ambush Candle Co.'s range of soy wax candles, a perfect example of sustainability and eco-friendliness in action.

The Advantages of Using Soy Wax: Sustainable and Eco-Friendly Choices with Ambush Candle Co.

What is Soy Wax?

Soy wax is a vegetable wax made from the oil of soybeans. After harvesting, the beans are cleaned, cracked, de-hulled, and rolled into flakes. The oil is then extracted from the flakes and hydrogenated, a process that alters the melting point of the oil, making it solid at room temperature.

Advantages of Soy Wax

Sustainable and Renewable: Soybeans are a renewable resource, making soy wax a sustainable option for candle making. Unlike paraffin wax, which is derived from petroleum, a non-renewable resource, soy wax production supports sustainable agricultural practices.

Eco-Friendly: Soy wax is biodegradable and breaks down more easily than paraffin wax, reducing its impact on the environment. Burning soy wax candles produces less soot, minimizing indoor air pollution and making them a healthier option for your home.

Clean Burning: Soy wax burns cleaner and longer than paraffin wax, with no toxins, carcinogens, or pollutants. This means you can enjoy the beautiful ambiance of your candle without worrying about harmful chemicals being released into the air.

Better Scent Throw: Soy wax has an excellent scent throw, both cold and hot. This means that soy wax candles from Ambush Candle Co. will fill your room with a rich, consistent fragrance, enhancing your sensory experience.

Supports Farmers: By choosing soy wax candles, you are supporting American farmers. The production of soy wax is a significant industry in the United States, contributing to the agricultural economy.

Easy to Clean Soy wax is water-soluble, which makes it easier to clean up any spills. Just use soap and warm water to remove soy wax from most surfaces, including clothing and textiles.

Wood wicks (pictured, below) provide a unique and appealing crackling sound reminiscent of a cozy fireplace, enhancing the sensory experience of burning a candle. Additionally, they are eco-friendly, often sourced from sustainable wood, and offer a cleaner, slower burn compared to traditional cotton wicks.
