ROAM The Brand wishes to acknowledge that we gratefully operate on the traditional, ancestral and unceded territory of the Coast Salish peoples–Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), Stó:lō and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) and xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) Nations.

sustainability

We try our best to prioritise sustainability and create the lowest impact we can in the creation of our candles. Our candle vessels are reusable, our coconut apricot wax blend is biodegradable, and we use minimal packaging to avoid unnecessary waste. 

packaging

We ship our candles in a 100% recyclable box with recyclable tape and padded with biodegradable packing peanuts. These peanuts can be placed in the compost bin or will dissolve in water. Our boxes are sized to fit our candles to minimise waste and keep shipping costs to a minimum. Candles are placed in a reusable cotton pouch, and come with a small recyclable card with details about the candle. 

reusing your vessels

Just like with nature, when one thing runs the course of its life, it makes space for another to take its place. We encourage this cycle with our ROAM candles. Set your vibe, absorb your scent, and when your candle burn is complete, clean out your vessel and plant a seed.

There are endless ways you can repurpose your candle vessel around the home and it makes a great decorative piece. To clean your jar, scoop out any excess wax using a teaspoon and wash the vessel with warm soapy water or place it in the dishwasher. Reuse your vessel as a plant pot, a cute makeup brush holder, a decorative jar...the options are endless. Alternatively, you can break the jar apart and use it in plant pots to help aerate the soil. Our ceramic vessels are totally dishwasher safe. Using a spoon, gently scoop out any remaining wax, give the inside a quick clean with dish soap and then either stick in in the dishwasher or scrub it with a soft brush and warm water and dish soap.
