Did You Know That Most Candles Contain Paraffin?
The American Lung Association states that the Number One way we get toxins in our homes is by burning paraffin candles! The EPA has published reports that burning two paraffin candles in a room at the same time reduces your environmental air to unsafe levels!
Do You Love Candles? Know the Facts!
Paraffin wax is classified as a chemical preservative. Did you know that Paraffin is commonly
used in the majority of candles worldwide?
Paraffin is a heavy hydrocarbon that comes from something you might know as crude oil. One product that is produced by crude oil is lubricating oil. It's in the refining process that petroleum waxes are born. It is then whitened by using a bleach solution and texturized with acrolein, a carcinogenic product!
The American Chemical Society
States that when Paraffin is burned...
It emits toluene, benzene, and other toxins
that are linked to health issues such as asthma, eczema, migraine headaches and even cancer. The fine particulate matter collected from candle emissions is similar to that of diesel engine exhaust in particle size and elemental carbon content.
The American Lung Association
Has Issued Warnings that say by burning...
They can emit toxins, in measurable amounts, into your home’s air. “Paraffin candles are as dangerous to the lungs as second-hand tobacco smoke and even more so if you are in the habit of burning many at the same time.”
Unfortunately for Consumers...
Regulations are not In Place
Due to lack of regulations of the candle industry, suppliers, manufacturers and retailers are not
required to list or disclose toxic compounds found in paraffin wax or its emissions. Cheaper candles made with wicks containing lead are being imported from other countries and still being sold today.
