TEN GOOD REASONS TO BUY ORGANIC WAX CANDLES

1. Organic Candles meet strict standards.

                An Organic Candle manufacturer like Lumia is at the forefront of the movement to produce candles achieving the highest standards for clean burning organic wax, pure essential oils, and cotton wicks. 

2. Organic candles burn great and are competitively priced.

                Organic candles are beautiful and are extensively tested to burn properly.  And organic wax candles are competitively priced.

3. Organic production is non-GMO

                Organic candles come from vegetable oil sources that are Certified Organic and non-GMO.  Conventional soy wax comes from Genetically Modified ("Roundup Ready") soybeans even if it fools the GMO tests.

4. Organic farms respect water resources

                Using wax from organic oils promotes the elimination of polluting chemicals and nitrogen leaching, which is done in combination with soil building, protecting and conserving water resources.

5. Organic candles help organic farmers build healthy soil.

                Organic farmers build healthy soil which is the foundation of our food chain.  The primary focus of organic farming is to use practices that build healthy soils.

6. Organic candles are in harmony with nature

                Organic agriculture and the use of organic products shows respect for the balance demanded of a healthy ecosystem: wildlife is encouraged by including forage crops rotation and by retaining fence rows, wetlands, and other natural areas.   Organic producers promote forest preservation and sustainability.

7. Organic producers and processors are leaders in innovative research.

                Organic candle makers have led the way, at their own expense, with innovative research aimed at bringing organic wax and organic candles to market and are in the forefront of the drive to establish organic standards for non-food agricultural products.

8. Organic producers strive to preserve diversity

                The loss of a large variety of species (biodiversity) is one of the most pressing environmental concerns today.  The good news is that many organic farmers and gardeners have been collecting and preserving seeds and growing unusual varieties for decades. 

9.  Organic wax helps keep rural communities healthy

                Approximately 35 million hectares worldwide are now farmed organically, representing only about 1 percent of total world farmland.  Almost all of this is on smaller farms.  Organic oil production for wax can be a lifeline for smaller farms because it offers an alternative high value market for their crops.

10. Organic abundance - Foods and non-Foods alike!

                With Organic Candle Wax, another product category has an organic alternative.  Just like cotton, which most experts mistakenly thought could not be grown organically, vegetable oils for wax can be grown competitively with organic methods.
