We provide tools and resources to help minimize materials used as well as reuse existing materials in innovative ways. We offer materials that are created out of recycled components, like soy and beeswax candles made with recycled packaging material or resin mixing containers made using recycled plastic. Our green packaging options can also be repurposed for various craft projects like melt-and-pour soapmaking or lotion making.
Through our Sustainability Center, we offer tips on reducing waste by truly focusing on the needs of each project while still maintaining budget constraints and quality standards at the same time. We can help eliminate unnecessary energy consumption along with providing helpful information on strategies to lessen environmental impact such as best practices for sourcing supplies or using natural candle additives like essential oils or spices for scent, color and texture instead of artificial chemicals or dyes.

Fragrances – At Pacific Northwest Candle Making Supply you will find a variety of fragrances either in oil or liquid form that can greatly enhance your candle’s scent profile. It is important, however, to choose a fragrance oil designed specifically for use with candles since regular perfume or essential oils may not burn properly.
