Rapeseed wax is hydrogenated vegetable oil and is grown in Europe and even in the Netherlands. It is a bright yellow flowering plant from the mustard or cabbage family that is often grown on fallow land, without pesticides. Especially as a soil improver in crop rotation, rapeseed enriches the soil structure through humus formation, after which subsequent harvests have better yields. In addition, rapeseed is beneficial for biodiversity because this richly flowering plant also serves as food for bees and other insects. Thus, a local product and a sustainable alternative to kerosene candles!
Rapeseed wax dissolves in warm water, stains are easy to wash out.
These rapeseed wax dinner candles are a perfect pairing with the Fixum candle holder from Floris Hovers.
