| Comparison Of Our Material Against Chinese Material | | 1) | Our material is food grade with FDA approved. | | 2) | Our oil content is 0.5% max. and Chinese material may reach 2-3% max. | | 3) | The color of Chinese wax is easy to turn yellow while it is under UV rays. | | 4) | Our penetration is between 12-16, our material is hard, but Chinese material is soft. | | 5) | Chinese wax with odour which could be smelled, but ours is odourless. | | 6) | Our product is treated by hydrogen cracking. Only a few countries, such as Germany, Canada and Taiwan can produce such quality. | | 7) | While burning the candle produced from our wax, it won't cause sulphur and benzene. Our product can manufacture qualified candle for export to U.S.A. and European countries as our product is FAD approved. However, Chinese material cannot meet such standard. | |
