Candle Safety

Candles are wonderful things, just make sure you place them carefully. Ensure they are well away from other objects, and remember to put them out properly.

• Never leave a burning candle unattended.
• Always keep candles out of reach of children and pets.
• Remove all packaging before lighting the candle.
• Don’t move the candle when the wax is liquid.
• Containers (especially tins) can become very hot during and after a long burning period.
• Keep candles away from drafts, vents and flammable objects.
• Keep wicks trimmed to avoid dark smoke.
• Always place candles on a firm, stable and heat resistant base.
• Don’t burn a candle completely. Dispose it with around an inch spare.
