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.

Hello! Brand new to this!
So I made some candles, and the scent throw is great. The Soy 464 is perfect, and I love the 4oz tins. But the wick has left much to be desired...
There's a huge amount of tunneling, and I'm wondering if I did something wrong? I'm thinking I need to go up a size to size 6. They seemed a little too thin at first glance, but with an untrained eye, I wrote it off and tested the burn after two weeks. I'm thinking I need to go up a size (or maybe two?). Any suggestions or help would be great!
Thanks!
I’ve used this with for my soy wax candles for years and they perform very well. You do need to trim the wick consistently to 1/4 an inch but I’ve had really good success with these wicks. Thank you for offering a quality product at a great price!
These wicks have always been spot on for me. They perform great in IGI 6006. Unfortunately, the CS recs are not even close on anything I try, but this wick has helped me in multiple containers.
Hello,
I am not a bot, I am not trying to get candle science more sales but I've used this wick thousands of times, and am ordering another 1000 right now. For those people claiming tunneling or did not burn all the way. It's probably your wax or combination of wax. Personally I've worked out a formula that works perfectly for these wicks so don't blame the wick, it works fine. I just think the reviews on this product are not justified. It will work if you are capable of reading your candle and understanding that adjustments may be necessary.
I've used these wicks in the apothecary jars for over a year now. I've rarely had any issues with tunnelingor them staying lit.. however, you HAVE to be on top of trimming them as they burn or you will 100% get black smoke, mushrooming and the glass blackening. It's a little frustrating at times when customers complain about this. Especially when you advertise correct wick care.
