Craftiviti Palm wax for candle making is 100% natural wax made from palm berries.

It burns slow with low soot and retains scent well making it a suitable and versatile wax for making unique pillar candles or container candles.

Palm wax is often a popular wax choice among candle makers because it hardens into a beautiful crystalline pattern, retains scent well and is biodegradable. Each candle produces a unique pattern when hardened.

Tips

  • Use only candle approved dyes to ensure no toxins will be burnt during use
  • Use safe candle fragrance oils to ensure scent is safe for breathing in
  • Do not add plant powders, uncertified coloring powders that may be toxic or inhibit burning of flame
  • Never shut a candle with water, blow out the fire or cover flame to starve off oxygen
  • Using a good quality wick will ensure even flame, low soot and harmful residues
  • Make sure any botanical decorations are away from the wick so it will not catch fire


Palm Wax Material Safety Data Sheet

 

INSTRUCTIONS FOR CANDLE MAKING:

  • Glue the wicks to the bottom of the jars/containers.

  • Clip the wick upright with a plastic clip at the top of the jars/containers.

  • Heat wax direct over a low fire or in a double boiler.

  • Be careful not to overheat the wax.

  • Stir occasionally (overheated wax will discolour and/or burn your wax).

  • Remove wax from fire and allow the wax to cool down for 5 minutes.

  • Add colour to your liking. Adding too much colorants can inhibit the burning of the flame so adding less is better then conduct a burn test.

  • At 65°C add in fragrance or essential oil at (Oils will evaporate if the wax is too hot)

  • Stir and mix gently.

  • At 60°C gently pour the wax into jars/containers.

  • Allow the wax to set at room temperature and let it cure for 1-2 days into a crystallized look.


To clean up your tools and pot is to wipe them out with a paper towel and spray a little rubbing alcohol while they are still warm.

We suggest experimenting with a small batch to get the right scent and look for your candle. Add variations by doing different coloured layers or combining different waxes together.

Lilin sawit adalah 100% lilin semulajadi yang diperbuat daripada biji sawit.

Lilin sawit membakar secara perlahan dengan asap lilin yang minima dan ia mengekalkan bau yang lama. Disebabkan ini, ia sangat sesuai untuk pembuatan lilin batang atau lilin dalam bekas.

Lilin sawit sering menjadi pilihan yang popular di kalangan pembuat lilin kerana ianya mengeras menjadi bentuk yang berhablur (crystalline) yang cantik dan juga mesra alam.

Cara-cara untuk menghasilkan lilin:

  • Lekatkan sumbu ke bahagian bawah balang / bekas.

  • Kepitkan sumbu lilin secara menegak dengan menggunakan pengetip plastik di bahagian atas balang / bekas

  • Panaskan lilin secara langsung dalam api yang rendah dalam pengukus (double boiler). Sila berhati-hati supaya lilin tidak dibiarkan terlalu panas. Kacaukan ia sekali-sekala (lilin terlalu panas akan menyebabkan warna bertukar luntur atau lilin akan hangus).

  • Keluarkan lilin daripada api dan biarkan lilin menyejuk selama 5 minit.

  • Tambahkan warna & wangian (Fragrance Oil) atau minyak pati (Essential Oil). (Minyak akan menyejat jika lilin terlalu panas)

  • Kacau dan campurkan bahan tambahan secara perlahan-lahan.

  • Dengan perlahan-lahan tuangkan lilin ke dalam balang / bekas.

  • Biarkan lilin disediakan pada suhu bilik dan biarkan ia menyejuk untuk 1-2 hari menjadi bentuk yang berhablur (crystalline).


Kami mengesyorkan lilin dibuat dalam kuantiti kecil untuk mendapatkan bau yang betul. Anda boleh menambahkan variasi dengan melakukan lapisan-lapisan warna warni atau campurkankan jenis lilin-lilin yang berbeza.
