OpenWick
A Better Burn Starts with the Wick
OpenWick® is our patented, self-trimming wick that unfolds as it burns, creating a wide, low flame for a full, even wax pool to help reduce soot, minimize wasted wax and extend your candle’s burn time.
Self-Trimming Wick
WHY IT WORKS
As OpenWick® burns, the wick opens in opposite directions, positioning its tips near the hottest part of the flame. This allows the cotton to be consumed at a more even rate, helping the wick maintain a consistent length throughout the burn.
The result? A wick designed to naturally manage itself as it burns.
Even Melt Pool
WHY IT WORKS
When OpenWick® opens, it creates a wider, lower flame that distributes heat across more of the candle’s surface.
That wider flame helps the wax melt evenly toward the edges of the vessel and consume more evenly over the life of the candle—without creating the deeper, overheated wax pool typically associated with multiple wicks.
Reduced Soot
WHY IT WORKS
As OpenWick® opens, the flame becomes wider and lower. Combined with the wick’s self-trimming design, this helps maintain a more controlled flame and reduces the excess wick that can contribute to soot buildup.
The result is less soot buildup and a cleaner burning experience.
More Burn Time
WHY IT WORKS
OpenWick® creates a wide, shallower melt pool compared to similar multi-wick candles. Because the wax isn’t heated as deeply, less wax is consumed at once, helping the candle burn at a more controlled rate and ultimately extending its burn time.
That shallower melt pool also helps preserve fragrance throughout the life of the candle, delivering a more consistent fragrance experience from beginning to end.
