Recycled Wax Premium (5kg)

Our premium recycled candle wax is produced from carefully selected church candles, recovered and refined to create a high-quality blend of paraffin, stearin and 10% beeswax.

Specially suited to making freestanding candles, this versatile wax is ideal for pillar candles, dinner candles, tapers, altar candles and other moulded or drawn candles.

Key Features

• 10% beeswax – blended with paraffin and stearin for a firm, versatile candle-making wax.

• Carefully refined – selected church candle wax is sorted and processed for reuse.

• Ideal for freestanding candles – particularly suited to candles that need to retain their shape without a container.

• Ready for candle making – supplied in convenient solid slabs for melting and processing.

• Recycled and resource-conscious – recovers valuable wax and diverts it from landfill.

• Economical and versatile – suitable for hobby candlemakers and small-scale commercial production.

Giving Candle Wax a Second Life

Through DM Hay's church candle recycling programme, used candles are collected, carefully selected and processed into a valuable raw material for making new candles.

Instead of discarding perfectly reusable wax, we give it a second life, helping reduce waste and the demand for virgin raw materials.
