The demands of a strong tradition
The candle is a noble product, imbued with a certain mystery, and which carries with it centuries of special and universally true stories. Bougies la Française feels that it has been a true keeper of this tradition since 1902 and makes every endeavour to make high quality candles for you.
From the choice of raw materials, wax processing methods, selecting wicks in pure cotton with different braidings, natural essences and subtle fragrances, our candles is subjected to many trials before production:
- finalising prototypes
- making a sample
- test for aging and colour stability under UV
- test for resistance to heat
- combustion test
- test for spread of perfume
- test of wax/ perfume compatibility
- test whether it sticks to the container
In our Quality laboratory, our chemists determine the subtle balance linking the components such as paraffin, waxes, perfume, the wick and the container, so it can be used in as many different places as possible.
