Pros of Wood Wicks - Why Bevy & Beyna Chose Wood Wicks over Cotton Wicks.

Wooden wicks offer several advantages over traditional cotton wicks:

 

  1. Crackle and Ambiance:

Wooden wicks produce a gentle crackling sound reminiscent of a cozy fireplace, enhancing the ambiance and creating a soothing atmosphere.

 

  1. Even Burn:

Wooden wicks have a wider flame that helps distribute heat more evenly across the candle's surface. This results in a consistent burn, reducing tunneling and maximizing the lifespan of the candle.

 

  1. Soot-Free:

Unlike cotton wicks that can produce soot and smoke, wooden wicks are designed to burn cleanly, minimizing residue and improving air quality in your space.

 

  1. Easy Maintenance:

Wooden wicks require less trimming compared to cotton wicks. They tend to remain upright and don't mushroom excessively, reducing the need for frequent trimming during the candle's burn time.

 

  1. Sustainability:

By choosing wooden wicks, you are opting for a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative. Our wooden wicks are carefully sourced from sustainable forests and hold FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) approval, ensuring responsible forestry practices. In contrast, the production of cotton, even for small components like wicks, involves intensive pesticide usage and significant water consumption. By embracing our wooden wicks, you contribute to reducing the environmental impact associated with traditional cotton wicks.

 

  1. Unique Aesthetic:

Wooden wicks add a unique and visually appealing element to candles. Their natural appearance complements various candle designs and provides a rustic, organic touch.

 

 

Overall, wooden wicks enhance the overall candle experience with their crackling sound, clean burn, low maintenance, and aesthetic appeal, making them a preferred choice for many candle enthusiasts.
