Candles for special occasions

Scented candles can set the mood for the occasion: up-beat and energetic, or chilled and relaxed. Whatever the space is, their scents can set the tone. They can also form the focus point of superb table centrepieces for special occasions like weddings and parties.  

Online is the way forward

More and more people are choosing to buy their scented candles online. Of course, this means they cannot “try before you buy”. But it does make it quick and easy. If you are buying from a brand you trust, then there is no reason to worry about the candle you are buying.

The number of companies offering candles is continually expanding.  Some are focused on candles as their main revenue stream.  Others offer a wide range of home products, and realise the candles are now an essential part of their range. 

Stoneglow has been selling their special ranges of candles online since 2010.  To learn more, or to see photos of their candles, or to buy from their online shop, just visit their scented candles website.

You may have used Stoneglow Candles, without knowing it

All the big homeware brands now sell their own-label scented candles, from John Lewis and Marks & Spencer to Homebase and The Range. None of them make their own candles. Where do the candles come from? A trade supplier, called a private label manufacturer: a company that does everything from selecting the scent and designing the candle to making it and wrapping and packing. All the retailer has to do is, in fact, retail them.

Stoneglow offers this service: the details are here. They provide a comprehensive Private Label service, delivering both development and manufacturing. They can’t name all their customers, but heres a few names they have dropped:

• Hobbs
• John Lewis
• The National Trust
• The Ritz Hotel

Labelling is an important part of their Candle Manufacturing service, because every scented candle sold in the UK must be correctly labelled. Because the fragrances used may be a risk or hazard to some users, the candle must be clearly labelled to identify the risks. This requirement is set by the CLP (Classification, Labelling and Packaging) regulations

Here’s some questions to help you choose a good manufacturer for private label scented candles.

• How long have you been manufacturing scented candles?
• Do you offer private label or white label production?
• Can you help develop bespoke fragrances?
• What minimum order quantities apply?
• Can you provide assistance with CLP labelling and regulatory compliance?
• What quality control procedures do you operate?
