CANADIAN OWNED Sore joints?

Our company has been in the beeswax business since 1959 and the bees have taught us a lot about what they do with their day. They have also shared with us some of their efforts, and we continue to learn from them as the years go on. In 1984, we expanded our product line to include paraffin waxes and continued to grow from there. Today we carry 25 different kinds of paraffin and microcrystalline wa

xes, 4 different soy waxes, and other palm oil based products. And for the specialists out there, we even carry Carnauba to give you that high depth hard shine! Try our physiotherapy wax for great relief. We also have a large variety of wicks, scents, and molds to help you make the perfect candle

What is the best Container Soy wax?
We don't play favourites, but these are the differences between our four types of 100% Soy Container Waxes:

⚪️ 464
Golden Wax 464 soy wax contains soy-based additives that are FDA-approved and Kosher-certified. The additive enables the soy to be poured at hotter temperatures reducing frosting and increasing fragrance oil load.
Melt Point: 113-119F
Pour Temp: 125-145F

⚪️ 444
Golden Wax 444 soy wax contains soy-based additives that are FDA-approved and Kosher-certified. The additive enables the soy to be poured at hotter temperatures reducing frosting and increasing fragrance oil load. Slightly harder than 464.
Melt Point: 120-125F
Pour Temp: 125-145F

⚪️ 419
Golden Wax 419 soy wax is an upgraded version of 464 with an additional plant based additive that reduces bloom/frost and improves aesthetics. Single pour with great glass adhesion, smooth & glossy surface, and smooth re-crystallization after burning.
Melt Point: 110-115F
Pour Temp: 170-180F

⚪️ BW929
BW929 is an all-natural, 100% soy blend, designed for single-pour scented container candles. Off-white in colour with a smooth appearance. Formulated for a high fragrance load.
We recommend going up a wick size from our other container soy waxes.
Melting Temperature - 128°F
Pouring Temperature - 160°F to 180°F

We love bees at Wicks & Wax! Their beeswax is used to make many things - beeswax sheets, candles, food wraps, encaustic art, wood polish, and so much more. And of course they pollinate the crops that feed us.

Here is some buzz-worthy beekeeping terminology for you:
🐝
PROPOLIS : a brownish resinous material of waxy consistency collected by bees from the buds of trees and used as a cement in repairing and maintaining the hive
🐝
WORKER BEE : female bees that do not reproduce. They represent 80-99% of the colony population, and can play more than a dozen specialized rolls inside and outside the hive, from cleaning to honey producing to foraging
🐝
APICULTURE : the keeping of bees especially on a large scale
🐝
APIARY : a collection of hives or colonies of bees kept for their honey
🐝
BEE BREAD : bitter yellowish-brown pollen stored up in honeycomb cells and used mixed with honey by bees as food
