Are your candles free of phthalates, and why is that important?Yes, all candles from 7 Hills Candle Company are free of phthalates. Phthalates are a group of chemicals commonly used to make plastics more flexible and are also frequently found in fragrance oils. However, they have been linked to various health and environmental concerns, including endocrine disruption and potential impacts on reproductive health. We prioritize the well-being of our customers and the environment. Therefore, our candles are crafted using only phthalate-free fragrance oils, ensuring a safer, healthier experience for you and your loved ones while maintaining our commitment to sustainability and eco-friendly practices.

Why are cotton wicks better than zinc wicks for candles from 7 Hills Candle Company?We prioritize the quality and safety of our candles, which is why we use cotton wicks instead of zinc. Cotton wicks are all-natural and free from any metals, providing a cleaner and more environmentally friendly burn. They produce less soot and smoke, ensuring a purer fragrance experience. Moreover, cotton wicks minimize the risk of releasing harmful substances into the air, making them a safer choice for you and your family. On the other hand, zinc wicks, while they may offer rigidity and ease of use during production, can release trace amounts of metallic particles when burned, potentially affecting air quality. By choosing cotton wicks, 7 Hills Candle Company commits to delivering a superior, safer, and more enjoyable candle-burning experience.
