ECO 12 6" Pretabbed Cotton Candle Wick
Choose a Variant

Product Update:
You may see some variation in the wax coating on the wick due to different coating processes. The variance of the wax coating on the wick has no impact on the burn of the candle.

About the ECO Series
ECO wick is constructed from natural flat cotton threads interwoven with paper threads that produce a rigid structure for easy pouring. The consistent flame and slight curl of ECO wicks work well with natural waxes and ensures an even burn.

ECO wicks are lead and zinc free.

Conveniently secure your wicks with Wick Stickers (large) or Wick Stickers Pro.

Been Using For A While

Great wicks. I've been using them for my 3 in. diameter paraffin/soy blend candles (48%/52%) for maybe a year now. The wicks are securely tighten to the metal wick tabs. Wicks seem to burn consistently from bag to bag. I do not get a lot of mushrooming and they self-trim pretty good for my particular wax blend.

Perfect!

I love these wicks! I have been using this wick size for a year now with 464 soy wax . I double wick my 8 oz. Apothecary candles, awesome heat throw, even burn, no soot issues with my candles. I even use these wicks for my 22 oz. Three wick candles and my candles are perfect every time. No customer issues or complaints! Thank you Candle Science!

BURN TIME MATTERS

If you burn a candle more than the recommended time, even the correct wick size could result in tunneling. Therefore, I like to include a reminder to my clients to burn 2-4 hours at a time.

WICK SIZE MATTERS

I have used only Candle Science’s ECO wicks for over four years. I burn multiple candles daily and haven’t had problems or customers report issues. Depending on the fragrance oil, ECO 12, 14 and 16 work perfectly in 9oz (medium) straight-sided glass jars. I use GB soy wax 444 with the maximum fragrance load. This always produces incredible hot throws! I perform a wick test for every fragrance before making a new scent combination available. In the beginning, I wasted a lot of wax and oils by creating entire batches with the test candle. Now, I make one test candle at a time with the jar a little over 1/2 to 3/4 full. This saves a lot of money! I’m able to clean out and reuse the test jars.

Great wicks for soy wax

I used these in my 8oz temperature resistant jars with soy wax and about a 10% fragrance load.
They work great, I burned my candle in two hour increments for two days to see how the wick would perform.
I didn't get any tunneling, mushrooming or soot after burning for two hours each day at a time.
However, I decided to burn my candle longer than four hours with a watchful eye.
I wanted to see what would happen if someone doesn't know to burn the candle only four hours max and of they didn't know to trim the wick....
I burned the candle for eight hours.
Yes eight consecutive hours! My candle burned great and at the 8hour mark some soot started to occur.
I simply blew out the candle and wiped the soot away.
Great wicks. I hope this review helps someone.
