Introducing KahlCandle Waxes

5 November 2024

Your Eco-Conscious Answer to Candle Production

H Foster has a relationship with Kahl that spans over 50 years, and we’re proud to be offering their high quality waxes for use in scented container candles.


Based on hydrogenated natural oils from renewable resources, KahlCandle grades are premium botanical waxes. They are ready-to-use, meaning they don’t need to be blended with paraffin or other waxes and are made from 100% renewable plant oils, meaning they’re suited to eco-conscious brands. Read on to find out more about the unique properties of each product.
