Our Commitment to Eco-Friendly Packaging

At Bougies Chénier, we’re passionate about creating beautiful products while being kind to the planet. That’s why we carefully choose packaging that’s recyclable, reusable, and eco-responsible — always aiming to reduce waste and limit our use of plastic.

🌿 Biodegradable Packing Peanuts

To protect your candles and wax melts during shipping, we use biodegradable packing peanuts made from cornstarch. These dissolve easily under water and leave no harmful residue — simply place them in a colander, rinse, and watch them disappear!

♻️ Reusable Candle Jars

Our candles are hand-poured into durable glass jars designed to be reused long after the candle is gone. Give them a second life as:

Holders for makeup brushes, cotton pads, or bathroom essentials
Organizers for pens, clips, or craft supplies
Small jars for spices or tea
Planters for tiny succulents or herbs

There’s no wrong way to repurpose — as long as the jar doesn’t go straight to the recycling bin!

🌼 Wax Melts Without Single-Use Plastic

Unlike many wax melt products that come in plastic clamshell containers, we hand-pour our wax melts into reusable silicone molds, eliminating the need for single-use plastics.
Once cooled, the melts are packaged in resealable kraft paper bags — a recyclable and more sustainable choice that keeps your melts clean and easy to store.

📦 Recyclable Packaging

We also use recyclable cardboard boxes and tissue paper to wrap your orders with care. Everything is chosen to reduce waste and make recycling easy for you.

💚 Small Steps, Big Impact

From our materials to our methods, every decision we make is a step toward a cleaner planet. We believe that small actions — like choosing reusable, recyclable, and biodegradable packaging — can lead to meaningful change.
