Product description

The wooden cross wick represents a modern and visually attractive solution for the production of candles in jars, glass containers and decorative packaging. It is designed to ensure stable burning, even melting of the wax and a pleasant visual as well as sound effect while burning. Thanks to the natural material, it is suitable for artisanal, gift and design candle production in smaller series as well as for hobby use.

Possibilities of use

Production of natural candles in glass vials, jars and glasses from vegetable and paraffin waxes
Decorative candles in design tins and smaller containers intended for interior use
Aromatherapeutic candles with essential oils and fragrance blends in cosmetic packaging
Design gift candles in packaging solutions combined with cosmetic products (sets, bundles)
Testing new wax formulations, fragrances and colorants in smaller test containers

Advantages of the packaging

Natural material – the wooden cross wick creates a pleasant atmosphere while burning and naturally matches modern cosmetic and decorative packaging.
Stable burning – the cross construction supports better heat distribution and more even melting of the wax in the container.
Visual and sound effect – during burning it can produce a gentle crackling sound, which complements the sensory experience of the candle.
Universal use – suitable for various types of waxes and container designs, from simple jars to luxury glass packaging.
Easy processing – the wick can be easily shortened, worked into the wax and combined with commonly available wick holders.

Combining with closures and dispensers

The wooden cross wick is used in combination with a suitably selected container (jar, vial, jar or tin) intended for candle making. When choosing the packaging, we recommend taking into account the inner diameter of the container, the type of wax and the amount of fragrance component, so that the burning proceeds in a stable and safe way. The candle container can subsequently be combined with decorative closures or lids (for example metal caps, glass stoppers or practical covers), which protect the surface of the candle during storage and transport. Combinations of packaging and components that are created directly on Handymade are used long-term in practice; however, for all combinations we always recommend performing your own compatibility test – especially in terms of the behaviour of the wax in the specific container, the safe distance of the flame from the walls of the packaging and the overall stability while burning.

Technical parameters

All technical parameters of the packaging are stated in the attached Packaging Quality Certificate and in the product parameters.

FAQ – Frequently asked questions

How do I choose the correct size of wooden cross wick for my container?

Always adapt the choice of wick to the inner diameter of the container, the type of wax and the amount of fragrance component used. It is recommended to carry out several test pours in the same vial or jar in which you will sell the finished candles. Observe in particular the evenness of burning, the width of the melted wax pool and the height of the flame. If necessary, choose a different wick size or adjust the wax composition.

Is it possible to combine the wooden cross wick with different types of waxes?

The wooden cross wick is suitable for use with several types of waxes, such as vegetable, paraffin or blended wax compositions. However, when changing the type of wax, we always recommend doing a burn test in the same container, in order to verify the stability of the flame, the burning rate and the behaviour of the wax during longer use of the candle. Each formulation may burn slightly differently, therefore testing is crucial for a safe and high-quality result.

Can I reuse the container for a new candle after the candle has burned out?

The container in which the wooden cross wick was used can be reused after the candle has burned out, provided that hygienic and safety principles are observed. Before refilling, it is necessary to remove the wax residues, clean it thoroughly and disinfect it, ideally using a suitable alcohol, for example isopropyl alcohol or denatured ethanol. Only after the container has completely dried can you insert a new wick and pour in fresh wax. When reusing, always check whether the container is not damaged or cracked.

How can I safely dispose of and recycle the container after using a candle with a wooden cross wick?

If you decide not to use the container further after the candle has burned out, first remove the wax and wick residues and sort the packaging according to the material specified in the parameters of the specific product (for example glass containers into glass recycling, plastic components into the respective plastic collection, etc.). The recycling rules derive from the material type of the given vial or jar; for each packaging we recommend following the marking on the packaging and the information in the product parameter table on Handymade.sk.

You offer many types of packaging – how can I find the right one for my product?

The easiest way to select a suitable vial, jar or tin is to use the advanced filter in the packaging category. After clicking on the selected category, you will find the filter at the top of the page, where you can clearly filter the packaging by neck type, size, colour and material. This way you can quickly display only those packaging options that are suitable for your candles, cosmetic products or other formulations.
