Why Eco-Friendly Candles Are Better for Your Home & Health
Discover the benefits of clean-burning candles made with coconut soy wax and phthalate-free fragrances.
In a world filled with synthetic scents and paraffin wax, it's easy to overlook what’s really in the candles we burn every day. But if you’re looking to create a cleaner, safer home environment, switching to eco-friendly candles is a simple and impactful step.
At The Remontant in Downtown Kirkland, we handcraft every candle with eco-conscious ingredients that are as safe as they are luxurious—so you never have to compromise between ambiance and air quality.
🕯️ What Makes a Candle "Eco-Friendly"?
An eco-friendly candle is designed to be non-toxic, sustainable, and safer for your space. Here’s what that means at The Remontant:
-
100% Coconut Soy Wax
We use a clean-burning coconut soy wax blend—completely free of paraffin (a petroleum byproduct found in many mass-market candles). Coconut soy wax burns cooler and slower, giving you more scent per candle with less soot in the air. -
Phthalate-Free & Paraben-Free Fragrance Oils
Many candles contain synthetic fragrance oils with phthalates—chemicals linked to indoor air pollution and hormone disruption. All of our scents are phthalate- and paraben-free, meaning you can enjoy rich, layered aromas without the toxins. -
Sustainably Sourced Materials
From our FSC-certified wood wicks to reusable glass jars, we keep our materials minimal, ethical, and earth-friendly.
