FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions About Our Eco-Friendly Candles
What makes soy wax candles eco-friendly?
Soy wax is made from soybeans, a renewable crop that’s biodegradable and sustainable. Unlike paraffin, it burns cleaner with less soot and fewer toxins, making it better for your home and the planet.
Are your candles vegan and cruelty-free?
Yes - all Wild Nature Candles are 100% vegan. We use plant-based soy wax, cotton wicks, and cruelty-free fragrance oils. No animal products or testing are ever involved. We are a fully vegan business.
Do you plant a tree with every order?
Yes! For every candle or gift set purchased, we fund the planting of a tree through our reforestation partner. It’s our way of giving back to nature and helping you make a positive impact with every purchase.
Do you deliver candles across the UK?
Yes! We’re based in Wotton-under-Edge, Gloucestershire, and send our hand-poured candles, wax melts and gift sets to eligible addresses across the UK using Royal Mail. This includes many areas beyond mainland England, such as the Scottish Highlands and eligible island destinations.
Delivery options and prices are shown at checkout, with two tracked services to choose from. Some remote locations may have different postage costs or delivery times, so if you're unsure whether we can deliver to your address, just get in touch and we'll be happy to check.
We're sorry that we can't currently deliver to Northern Ireland. For destinations such as Jersey and Guernsey, please contact us before ordering so we can check availability and confirm the postage cost.
What are the benefits of using eco-friendly candles at home?
Eco-friendly candles burn cleaner, producing less smoke and fewer toxins. They create a healthier indoor atmosphere, last longer than paraffin candles, and are kinder to the environment.
How are your candles made sustainably?
Each candle is hand-poured in small batches using soy wax and cotton wicks. We package everything in recyclable kraft boxes and biodegradable wrapping, so your order is as planet-friendly as possible.
Do you offer eco-friendly candle gift sets?
Yes - our gift sets include two hand-poured soy candles in a recyclable kraft keepsake box. They make perfect eco-conscious gifts and come in a variety of nature-inspired scents.
Are your candles and wax melts safe to use around pets?
We have a dog of our own, Archibald, so we understand how important it is to keep our furry family members in mind! 🐾 Our candles and wax melts are made with care using vegan-friendly ingredients. As with any fragranced products, we recommend using them in a well-ventilated room, keeping them out of pets’ reach, and ensuring they can move away from the scent if they wish. Every animal is different, so it would be unwise to guarantee our products are suitable for every pet, but taking a few simple precautions can help you enjoy your favourite scents while keeping your four-legged family members in mind.
