CANDLE SAFETY

CANDLE SAFETY

  Never leave burning candles unattended. Put burning candles out when you leave the room, and make sure they are out completely at night.

  Trim wick to 5mm before lighting.

  Place your candles carefully. Make sure they are on a stable surface, out of the reach of pets and children, and keep them away from flammable objects like curtains, furniture, bedding and books.

  Don’t move candles once they are lit.

  Always snuff out the candle, do not blow out.

  Do not burn several candles close together as this might cause the flame to flare, leave at least a 10cm gap.

  Burn candles in a well-ventilated room, out of draughts, vents or air currents. This will help prevent rapid or uneven burning, soot, and dripping.

  Never burn a candle for longer than 4 hours.

  Don’t burn a candle all the way down. We recommend leaving 5mm of wax in the container

  You can find safety instructions on the base of all of our candles and if you are ever unsure, please do get in touch and we will be happy to help email customercare@candleandmatch.com
