Sustainable Luxury - The Benefits of Soy Wax Candles

At House of Cassidy, we truly believe that luxury, sustainable ingredients, and craftsmanship can come together in a wonderful partnership. A great advantage is that our natural ingredients from local suppliers enhance your candle experience.

The soy wax creates a purer scent experience without the addition of preservatives and harsh chemicals, helping you to breathe easier. This makes our candles better for the planet, and your health. 

Better For the Planet

Many of the luxury candles you will find on the high street contain pollutants such as petroleum and paraffin. Though they produce a good burn, they add to the pollution in the atmosphere of your home, eventually adding to the overall pollution outside. 

Soy wax comes from a renewable resource. Soybeans are a natural plant that can be grown and replenished naturally, without taking anything from the ecosystem. Using soy wax allows us to contribute to the livelihoods of local farmers, and create more demand for sustainable economic practices. Plus, it’s biodegradable, meaning it gives back once you’re finished with it. 

Better For Your Health 

We believe every home should have clean and safe air that doesn’t have a negative long term impact on your health. Our vegan soy wax produces a much cleaner burn, without releasing pollutant chemicals into your indoor air, such as toluene and benzene. If you have respiratory sensitivities and allergies, this means you can enjoy the experience of scented candles without compromising your wellbeing. 

Our wax produces far less soot than high street brands, making for a cleaner overall experience, and cleaner air in your living spaces. 

Plus, it burns slower, meaning you can enjoy your candle for longer. 

Repurposing Your Jar 

Our glass jars are fully recyclable, with not a trace of plastic - but you can repurpose them any way you choose. Once cleaned out, you might want to use it as a vase, or a chic drinks glass - or maybe even create a brand new candle out of leftover wax. 

We offer an exclusive candle refill service to all our customers. When your candle runs out, you can purchase a pre-shaped candle at a 10% discount. This will fit your glass jar like a glove, so you can enjoy a brand new candle while reusing your jar. 

Each candle comes in a beautifully simple yet elegant box made from cardboard that can be recycled. We use minimal packaging, while making sure every candle is beautifully presented.
