Flat wicks for cast and moulded candles

This flat wick made from 100% pure natural cotton is perfectly suited to making beeswax or vegetable wax candles. It is also compatible with paraffin wax. Lead-free and with no metal core, it complies with REACH (EG 1907/2006) and the RAL-GZ-041 quality mark. Manufactured to ISO 9001:2015 quality standards.

Thanks to its adjustable length, it can be used for container candles, moulded candles and sparklers.

The benefits of coil wicks

Coil wicks offer an ideal solution for craftspeople and designers who want versatility, economy and control in their work.

• Economical: they are cheaper, ideal for reducing your production budget.
• Flexibility: you can cut the wick to the length you need, to suit your creations.
• Customisation: wicks can be pre-coated for better control of combustion.

Instructions for use

For poured candles, dip the wick into the melted wax, leave it to dry, then repeat the operation 1 or 2 times. Once the wick is rigid, insert it into a round wick holder with a hole and tighten it with flat-nose pliers.

For moulded candles, insert the wick into the hole in the polycarbonate mould, then pull it outwards before fitting a sealing plug. For silicone moulds, carefully pierce the base with a needle and push the wick through.

Which wick holder should I choose according to the diameter of my wick?

Following in-house tests, we have established the most suitable combinations of wick holders and wick references. These combinations guarantee stable, even and safe combustion, whatever the wax used.

If youhave any difficulty in making your choice, please consult our guide to choosing the right candle wick.

Before each lighting, cut the wick to 5 mm to ensure a clean, even flame. Avoid draughts, which are particularly important for tapered candles, which are more sensitive to draughts. Light the first wick long enough to establish stable combustion.

Wicks are sold in 5-metre or 50-metre packs.

It's important to carry out trials before you start creating candles, so that you can adjust the diameter and combustion to suit your own formulations.
