Wooden wick 02 white is a special component designed for the production of natural candles in glass containers, jars or decorative glasses. Thanks to its solid shape and stable burning, it is suitable for pouring into various types of waxes and provides an even flame that supports smooth fragrance release and a pleasant visual effect.
Wooden wicks are popular in the creation of artisan candles, because with proper pouring and trimming of the wick they provide clean burning without excessive smoking. The white color of the wood allows for elegant and minimalist candle designs and at the same time naturally combines with various styles of packaging and labels.
The wooden wick is used in combination with a suitable container – a glass bottle, jar or another heat-resistant container intended for candles. When choosing the packaging, it is important to consider the inner diameter of the container and the intended flame width. Candle containers available on Handymade are designed to be compatible with the recommended types of wicks and commonly used waxes.
Combinations of packaging and components that are created directly on Handymade are tested and functional. However, for all combinations we always recommend performing your own compatibility test (wax behavior, flame size, formation of the wax pool and fragrance burning) with a specific formulation and type of container.
All technical parameters of the packaging are listed in the attached Packaging quality certificate and in the product parameters.
The wooden wick must be trimmed to approximately 3–5 mm above the surface of the wax before each lighting so that burning proceeds stably and without excessive smoking. When pouring into the container, we recommend fixing the wick firmly in the center of the bottom with a suitable holder or an adhesive dot intended for wicks. After the first lighting, let the candle burn long enough to create a continuous wax pool over the entire width of the container, thereby minimizing tunneling and unused wax on the walls of the packaging.
The wooden wick is suitable for most heat-resistant containers, such as glass jars, ceramic tins or concrete jars intended for candles. When choosing the packaging, it is necessary to take into account the inner diameter of the container and the type of wax so that the flame is neither too small nor too strong. We recommend making a test candle in the selected container and checking the behavior of the flame, the burning rate and the formation of the wax pool before starting full production.
The wooden wick is compatible with several types of waxes, but its behavior may differ depending on the density, melting point and proportion of fragrance or essential oils. When changing the wax or fragrance, we always recommend performing a trial pour to verify the flame size, burning rate and overall safety of the candle. In some formulations it may be necessary to choose a different wick size or adjust the ratio of added fragrance substances.
After the candle has burned out, let the container cool down completely and remove the remaining wax mechanically or by careful heating so that the wax can be wiped off. Place the wooden remainder of the wick and the metal or adhesive holder in mixed waste. Recycle the container itself according to the material specified in the product parameters for the specific packaging (for example, glass containers in the glass container). If the container has a decorative character and is not damaged, you can reuse it for storing small items or as a decoration, always away from an open flame.
When choosing a suitable container for candles, you can use the extended filter in the packaging categories, which is located at the top of the page after clicking on the selected category. Thanks to the filters, you can narrow down the offer according to the type of neck, size, color or packaging material and thus find the ideal bottle, jar or tin for a specific project. We recommend comparing several options and then creating test candles to verify the compatibility of the container with the wooden wick and the wax used.
