Sero Candles Ingredients
Ingredients
Recyclable Aluminum
✓ We pour every candle in aluminum, a materials that's infinitely recyclable without losing quality.
✓ Most candle jars are borosilicate glass, a material that can't be recycled curbside. Ours containers recycle with your cans.
✓ We laser-etch instead of labeling and weld our own aluminum wick clips instead of gluing steel ones. When it reaches the recycling stream, it's pure aluminum.
✓ At 1,300°F, the smelting process incinerates any remaining wax. Recycled aluminum is back on shelves in as little as 60 days.
Vegetable Wax
✓ We currently pour with 100% soy wax. Clean-burning, biodegradable, and FDA approved.
✓ Soy is an oxygenated fuel, which means it brings its own oxygen to combustion. That translates to a cleaner, safer burn.
✓ The lower melting point gives you a slower, more even burn and more hours per ounce of wax.
✓ We're always testing vegetable blends to improve burn performance and scent throw. Stay tuned for new options.
Toxin-Free Fragrance Oils
✓ Every fragrance we use is free of phthalates, parabens, carcinogens, mutagens, reproductive toxins, organ toxins, and acute toxins.
✓ We worked with a family-run fragrance house to develop three custom scent profiles at an intentionally low fragrance load.
✓ We describe it as subtle but present. Enough to fill a room without overwhelming it.
✓ We chose fragrance oils over essential oils for batch-to-batch consistency and a wider achievable scent range.
Wood Wicks
✓ Our wicks are selectively harvested hardwood from old-growth forests in North America. No farm-harvested trees.
✓ The crackle you hear comes from micro-explosions of moisture and volatiles in the wood grain as it burns.
✓ Wood wicks can deliver up to 35% greater fragrance throw than cotton, with less soot and particulate.
✓ They do have a learning curve. We think the sensory difference is worth it.
The system
Recyclable candles in reusable containers, in recyclable packaging.Beech Wood Containers
✓ Beech is a fast-growing hardwood, making it ideal for sustainable forestry. We chose it for its tight grain and natural durability.
✓ The split-shell magnetic design locks the aluminum refill in place. Recycle the candles, reuse the wood container.
✓ Swap in the scent that fits the current mood. No need to burn your candle down before changing scents.
✓ Every container has a unique grain patter from the natural wood - meaning no two are the same.
Plastic-Free Packaging
✓ Everything we ship is recyclable. Kraft paper tubes, direct-printed instead of labeled, all designed around the candle's dimensions for a tight, space-efficient fit.
✓ No plastic wrap, no foam inserts, no excess material. Every component goes in your recycling bin when you're done with it.
✓ We print directly on the kraft paper rather than adding labels or stickers. Fewer materials, cleaner recycling.
