Description
ECO Series Candle Wicks
ECO candle wicks are a popular choice for candle makers working with soy wax, natural vegetable waxes, and compatible wax blends. Constructed from flat-braided cotton interwoven with thin paper filaments, these wicks feature a rigid, coreless design that helps maintain their structure during candle making.
ECO wicks are designed to curl slightly as they burn, promoting self-trimming behavior and consistent flame performance when properly sized. Each wick comes pre-cut, pre-waxed, and pre-tabbed, making candle preparation easier for hobbyists and professional candle makers.
Features & Benefits
- Cotton & Paper Construction: Flat-braided cotton interwoven with paper filaments for added rigidity without a traditional wick core.
- Designed for Self-Trimming: The wick's slight curl during burning helps reduce carbon buildup when properly sized.
- Versatile Wax Compatibility: Commonly used with soy wax, natural vegetable wax blends, and selected para-soy and low-melt-point paraffin formulations.
- Ready to Use: Pre-cut, pre-waxed, and pre-tabbed for convenient candle making.
- Natural Wax Coating: Primed with natural wax to help maintain wick rigidity during pouring.
- Lead & Zinc Free: Made without lead or zinc wick cores.
- Flexible Quantities: Available in packs of 12, 100, or 1,000 for testing, small batches, or larger production runs.
Choosing the Right Wick
Which ECO wick size should I use?
The correct wick size depends on your wax formulation, container diameter, fragrance load, and other ingredients. Because every candle formulation behaves differently, wick-size recommendations should always be used as a starting point for testing.
Visit our Candle Wick Size Chart & Guide for ECO wick recommendations, sizing information, and burn-testing guidance.
Can ECO wicks be used with AromaMax waxes?
Yes. ECO wicks are an alternative worth testing with compatible AromaMax formulations, including our para-soy and coconut-soy-apricot container waxes. We generally recommend beginning with CD wicks for AromaMax, but ECO wicks may provide a suitable alternative depending on your wax, fragrance, and candle design.
Should I test multiple wick sizes?
Yes. We recommend testing neighboring ECO wick sizes to determine which provides the best overall performance for your finished candle. Always conduct complete burn testing before selling candles.
Wick recommendations are starting guidelines, not guaranteed results. Candle performance depends on the complete formulation and proper burn testing.
