040. Are scented candles and scented sticks dangerous?

040. Är doftljus och doftpinnar farliga?

What exactly is the definition of dangerous? We therefore mean that the amount you consume can be more dangerous than what you consume is under normal conditions. In too large a quantity, most things can be dangerous. Just look at food , if you eat too much you can get fatal diseases.

But if we stay within the framework of lighting candles at home like a normal candle fan (ie once in a while per week). As well as the fact that you live with scented sticks in almost every room of the home. Then we come to the next question, what do the candles and incense sticks contain?

This was one of the questions that Martin faced when creating all the fragrance products. Upon closer investigation, it turned out that many candles actually release dangerous toxins into the air that we then breathe. There were also carcinogenic substances in some commercial candles ⎯ it should be added that they were within the EU limit values. But hey! CARCINOGENOUS substances.

Therefore, the products from Remoair do not smell so sharp

Have you had a candle or scent at home that gave you a headache? It may be linked to phthalates and other substances in the product you are using. When burned or used, substances are released that can react with the air and can be converted into toxins such as formaldehyde and carbon dioxide.

The carbon dioxide is directly linked if you burn candles that are made of paraffin. Paraffin is produced from crude oil which, when burned, is converted into carbon dioxide. Some types of dyes in candles are also made with paraffin.

When making our selection of ingredients, we are careful to ensure that we do not use phthalates. We completely distance ourselves from carcinogenic substances, even if they account for 0.005% of a fragrance. It is not on the map. Our strict selection process linked to how we ourselves want the fragrance products to smell produces mild scents.

Answer to the question: YES ⎯ there are candles and scented sticks that are poisonous. BUT! Fortunately, there are also fragrance products like ours that are carefully controlled and safe to use in the home without being dangerous to you.
