The beeswax candles produced by Fujairah Research Centre embody the principles of sustainability, health, and quality. By leveraging local resources and expertise, the centre is able to provide an eco-friendly alternative to conventional candles, while also supporting the local economy and promoting environmental stewardship. These candles not only offer numerous benefits for personal use but also represent a commitment to sustainable and ethical practices in production. The production process starts with beekeeping. The FRC maintains apiaries where bees are carefully nurtured. These bees collect nectar from the diverse flora of Fujairah, producing high-quality beeswax as a byproduct of honey production. Then comes wax harvesting. Once the beeswax is collected, it undergoes a purification process. This involves melting the raw wax, filtering out impurities, and solidifying it into blocks ready for candle making. Finally, in candle making, the purified beeswax is melted again and poured into molds to form candles. Natural cotton wicks are used, and no artificial additives or fragrances are added, preserving the natural qualities of the beeswax. The beeswax candles offer numerous benefits over conventional paraffin candles. They are eco-friendly, as beeswax is a natural and renewable resource. Unlike paraffin, which is a byproduct of petroleum, beeswax candles do not contribute to pollution or deplete fossil fuels. When burned, beeswax candles release negative ions that help neutralize pollutants in the air. This can reduce dust, mold, and other allergens, promoting a cleaner indoor environment. Beeswax candles burn more slowly and evenly compared to paraffin candles, making them more cost-effective in the long run. Pure beeswax candles do not release harmful chemicals when burned, whereas paraffin candles can emit toxins such as toluene and benzene, which are harmful to health. Beeswax candles have a subtle, natural honey scent without the need for artificial fragrances. This mild aroma is soothing and pleasant, contributing to a calming atmosphere. The flame of a beeswax candle burns brighter and steadier, resembling natural sunlight more closely than paraffin candles. This can enhance ambiance and reduce eye strain. Purchasing beeswax products supports the beekeeping industry, which is crucial for pollination and maintaining biodiversity.
