Sustainability and environmental responsibility

Sustainability  

At On Wick we attempt to source everything as local as possible. We use British and European waxes and wicks and where possible all our fragrances are Uk manufactured.  Our packaging is sourced in the Uk we try to look at sustainability and environmental impacts of all our operations. 

Environmental Responsibility

It is our responsibility where possible to cut out waste and reuse . On a Wick is proud to say we were promoting recycling candle containers over 20 years ago and every week we have customers returning to our works to  bring their containers back for refilling. All our scrap and waste wax is collected and supplemented by local church wax and repurposed in to garden flares so our was wastage is virtually nil.  The packaging that we receive from suppliers is reused by use and excess cardboard is converted in to void packing by our in house slicing machine "Gnasher" which has meant no plastic noodles and minimal bubble wrap.
