Every time you create a natural and luxurious home ambience with the CandleXchange ‘Return & Swap’ range, you’re stopping up to 1kg of non-recyclable containers from entering landfill. With your help, we plan to prevent 1 million containers and 100 tonnes of packaging waste from entering landfill by 2030. Natural ingredients Soy wax is made from soy beans, which are a renewable crop, and the by-product soy bean husks are biodegradable. Paraffin wax is a by-product of the oil industry, which is not renewable and energy intensive to produce. That makes soy wax a big win for the environment! We care about packaging waste too We don’t just think about product waste but everything that is wrapped around it. 40% of landfill is actually from packaging alone, so we use packaging that can be re-used, recycled or compostable. Boxes replaced with reusable bags When you buy your first CandleXchange candle, the candle comes in a reusable pouch that is ethically handmade from plants by social enterprise Earth Worthy. These bags are made by people in Bangladesh who survived a garment factory collapse in 2013.

Most glass candle and diffuser containers are made of materials that can’t be recycled. Every time you ‘Return & Swap’ your candle with CandleXchange, you’re saving on average 1kg of glass (and packaging) from ending up in landfill. Soy wax is made from soy beans, which are a renewable crop, and the by-product soy bean husks are biodegradable. Paraffin wax is a by-product of the oil industry, which is not renewable and energy intensive to produce. That makes soy wax a big win for the environment!
