Candles are a loved accessory in homes for their pleasing scents and warm ambiance. However, not all candles are created equal. Many commercial candles can be a significant source of indoor air pollution, releasing toxins into the air that can be harmful to both humans and pets.
This is where Piper Sands candles come in. Piper Sands is a company that prides itself on producing high-quality, non-toxic candles that are pet friendly. In this blog post, we will explore what makes our candles stand out and why they are a great choice for pet owners. Our candles are pet friendly, meaning they are made from non-toxic materials.
Firstly, let's talk about the ingredients. Our candles are made from natural U.S. soy wax, which is a renewable resource and a much cleaner alternative to traditional paraffin wax. Soy wax creates a cleaner burn, so you don’t have to worry about your dog or cat breathing in toxic petroleum products. Soy wax is also biodegradable, which means it won't harm the environment when disposed of.
Additionally, Piper Sands candles use clean cotton wicks that are free from lead and other harmful metals. Traditional wicks can contain lead, which can be toxic when burned, especially in enclosed spaces. By using cotton wicks, we ensure that no harmful toxins from lead and other toxic metals are released into the air while the candle burns.
The fragrances used in our candles are also carefully chosen to ensure that they are pet friendly and non-toxic. Our candles are tested by a third party for known toxins in their fragrances, ensuring that only the safest ingredients are used. Many candles use synthetic fragrances that can contain harmful chemicals like phthalates, which have been linked to a range of health issues, including hormone disruption. Piper Sands makes an effort to eliminate those toxins.
One of the key benefits of Piper Sands candles for pet owners is that they are pet-friendly. As pet owners, we want to ensure that our furry friends are safe and healthy. Unfortunately, many scented candles can be harmful to pets. Pets have a more sensitive sense of smell than humans and can be more susceptible to the harmful effects of indoor air pollution.
It's important to note that while our candles are pet friendly, it's always a good idea to take precautions when burning candles around pets. This includes never leaving a candle burning unattended, keeping candles out of reach of pets, and ensuring that your pet has access to fresh air.
Piper Sands candles are a great choice for pet owners who want to enjoy the benefits of scented candles without worrying about the harmful effects on their pets. Piper Sands candles are made from natural U.S. soy wax, clean cotton wicks, and non-toxic fragrances.
