Did you know that beeswax candles are the healthiest candles to burn? Unlike paraffin candles, beeswax is hypoallergenic, completely suitable for newborns, kids and people with allergies or other sensitivities.
Beeswax contains more than 300 different substances such as minerals, propolis, resins, pollen, vitamin A and beta-carotene. Burning beeswax releases antimicrobial enzymes that help purify the air in your home, and can offer relief from hay fever.
The specific smell of beeswax has a positive effect on our nervous system. Burning beeswax candles can help to calm down, get rid of negative emotions and relax.
Kalina’s candles are made in a family owned herbal tea production farm. Next to growing organic herbs, the company engages in beekeeping.
Beeswax candles are often considered more sustainable compared to candles made from other types of wax, such as paraffin wax of soy wax. Beeswax is a natural and renewable resource produced by honeybees. When harvested responsibly, it does not deplete natural resources, contribute to pollution, or require energy-intensive processing like parafine and soy-wax.
In comparison to monoculture practices often connected to soy-bean production, beekeeping requires the cultivation of a wide variety of plant species, which improves the overall biodiversity of the area and reduces the mineral deprivation of the soil.
Beeswax candles are biodegradeble and do not release harmful toxins when burned, contributing to indoor air quality. Beeswax is also known for its long burn time.
