We are proud to be 100% Australian.

Alphacandles makes candles from Soy Wax - there is only one line of sight - the soya bean plant. We make all our candles on the kitchen stove. We do not import any of out candles.

Our candles are 100% non toxic and totally natural. Soy wax burns cleaner and cooler, cleans easily with soap and hot water  Soy wax releases fragrances naturally,

Paraffin candles are the most commonly burned candles worldwide. And are the most dangerous to our health.

Paraffin is an inexpensive sludge waste product of the petroleum industry that has been bleached then texturised with acrolyn, a known carcinogenic product.  Once burned it releases toxins that are known carcinogens such as benzene and toluene which are inhaled and linger in the areas they are burned in. Not to mention the soot that leaves its residue on walls, eventually greying fabrics and ceilings.  Soot from paraffin candles contains many of the same toxins found in diesel fuel.
