Nature Wax C-3 100% Soy Container Wax

Nature Wax C-3 has been specially formulated to perform well in all container candle applications, it is a 100% soy wax and comes in easy to use flake form.

Designed as a one pour wax, C-3 produces a beautiful creamy white finish with minimum shrinkage and good adhesion that can be improved on by pre-heating containers and allowing the candles to cool slowly once poured.

Great scent throw can be expected using both fragrances and essential oils, although it is worth noting the maximum fragrance load is slightly lower than other waxes on the market.

Melt Point: 45°C
Pour Temperature: 55 - 65°C
Max Fragrance: 7 to 8%

Please note: We do not recommend using essential oils in candles, even though some may perform reasonably well. The flashpoint, especially in citrus-type essential oils, is quite low and the direct flame of the wick in contact with the wax, a candle can easily catch fire. Essential oils do tend to work quite well in 'melts' as the heat source is not in direct contact with the wax. For candle making we recommend the use fragrance oils which have been specially designed for use in candles as their safety has been tested for the intended use. All essential oils due to their raw nature may discolour the wax. If essential oils are to be used in a candle application, please test in small quantities first and increase the ratio gradually to no more than 6%, being mindful of the high flammability of the raw material. As advised before, we do not recommend the use of essential oils in candles.
