The Pioneers of RSPO-Certified Sand Wax
Candella is a Vancouver-based sustainable decor brand and the first company to introduce 100% RSPO-certified palm wax to the global sand candle market. We specialize in zero-waste, plant-based candle systems designed for luxury events and every day home interiors.
From Broken Glass to a Better Way
Our journey began in 2023 with a shipment of shattered glassware. Instead of seeing waste, we saw an opportunity to rethink the candle industry's reliance on single-use jars and petroleum-based paraffin piller candles. We developed a granular, sand wax (or often as pearled wax) system that allows users to repurpose any vessel, eliminating the "tunneling" and soot associated with traditional candles.
Lighting the Way to Global Impact
At Candella, our mission is measured in more than just light. Through our partnership with The Water Project, every purchase contributes to clean water initiatives in sub-Saharan Africa. Our 2026 Goal: To provide clean and safe water access to over 10,000 people.
What Makes Candella Different
Zero-Waste Lifecycle
Traditional candles leave behind empty jars or deformed wax pillars that end up in landfills. Candella’s granular system allows for an infinite surface reset; this eliminates the "single-use" cycle common in the event industry.
First to Market: RSPO-Certified
While most sand candles use generic wax blends, we are the first brand to exclusively use 100% RSPO-certified palm wax. Our plant-based lipids are ethically sourced, petroleum-free, and soot-free.
Intentional Minimalist Packaging
We believe luxury is found in the product, not the waste. Unless a vessel requires reinforced protection to prevent breakage, we utilize recyclable, minimalist packaging.
Purpose-Driven Philanthropy
Through our partnership with The Water Project, every purchase contributes to building clean water systems in communities that need them most. We are on a mission to provide water access to 10,000+ people by 2027.
