Stabilo cotton wick is a professional wick designed for safe and stable burning of candles made from natural and blended waxes. Thanks to the high-quality cotton fibre and precise braiding, it is suitable for producing both decorative and utility candles where uniform flame intensity and optimal wax burn-off are important. The wick is supplied without metal parts, which allows its flexible use in various types of containers, cups, jars and other packaging according to your manufacturing technology.
Always adapt the choice of wick to the diameter and shape of the container, the type of wax and the amount of added fragrances or colourants. It is recommended to start with a standard length, anchor the wick at the bottom of the container and, after the wax has solidified, trim it to approximately 5–7 mm. It is then advisable to carry out a test burn and observe whether the flame creates an even wax pool without excessive smoking or tunnelling. If necessary, adjust the length or choose a different wick diameter according to the test results.
The wick itself is intended for single use within one candle; however, the packaging (jar, container, cup or bottle) can be reused if hygiene and safety principles are observed. Before pouring again, the packaging must be thoroughly cleaned of wax residues, impurities and soot, and then disinfected with a suitable agent, for example isopropyl alcohol IPA 99 % Isopropyl alkohol 1 l or plant ethanol Etanol 96 % denaturovaný rastlinný 1 l. This ensures a clean surface of the container and more stable burning of the new candle.
Each wax has different density, melting point and combustion properties, and added fragrances and colourants further influence its behaviour. With a higher proportion of perfumes, a slightly stronger or shorter wick may be needed to prevent smoking or an excessively high flame. We recommend testing several combinations in the same container, monitoring flame intensity, the amount of wax remaining after burnout and the degree of smoking. Only on the basis of these trials should you choose the optimal setting for serial production.
If you decide not to reuse the packaging, it is advisable first to remove the remaining wax and wick and then recycle it according to the type of material stated in the parameters of the specific product on the website. Glass containers are usually sorted into glass collection after cleaning, plastic packaging into the appropriate plastic recycling stream and metal components according to local rules for metal waste. Always follow the recycling symbols and recommendations provided for the given packaging in the e-shop to ensure the most environmentally considerate handling of materials.
The simplest way is to use the advanced filter in the packaging category. After clicking on the relevant category in the e-shop, you will find the advanced filter at the top of the page. Using it, you can select packaging according to several parameters, such as neck type, size, colour or material. This allows you to quickly narrow down the range to bottles, jars, cups or other containers that best match the desired design and the technical requirements of your product or candles.
