Palm wax is a natural, plant-based material derived from the fruit of the oil palm. The process of obtaining palm wax involves extracting fat from the pulp of palm fruits, which is then refined, purified, and processed into wax.
This versatile material is used in various fields, from candle making to cosmetics and the food industry. Palm wax boasts numerous advantages, including a long burn time, minimal soot production, a neutral scent, and easy cleanup.
However, it is crucial to choose palm wax sourced from sustainable resources and certified plantations that adhere to strict environmental protection and social responsibility standards.
Our palm wax, marked with the RSPO symbol, is a testament to our commitment to a sustainable production approach.
RSPO, or the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil, is an organization that promotes the production of palm oil in accordance with sustainable development principles, aiming to minimize negative impacts on the environment and local communities.
The RSPO label on our palm wax indicates that it comes from plantations that adhere to strict standards regarding environmental protection, workers’ rights, and social responsibility. This ensures that our products are not only of high quality but also sourced from eco-friendly and ethical origins.
At VERKOI, we craft our candles using solar energy, specifically heating the wax during sunlight hours.
This commitment to sustainability extends to our operations, where we focus on enhancing energy efficiency and reducing greenhouse gas emissions through renewable sources.
By integrating solar technology into our manufacturing, we are taking significant steps toward minimizing our carbon footprint and promoting responsible energy usage.
Our candles are 100% biodegradable, made from the purest palm wax without any additives, ensuring they are completely scent-free.
This commitment extends to our packaging, which is also eco-friendly.
Additionally, our candles do not produce soot, enhancing indoor air quality and making them a responsible choice for both your home and the environment.
