RECYCLE + REPURPOSE YOUR VESSEL

You've invested in a genuine Penn Chemists candle, so why in the world would you throw out one of our gorgeous glass vessels after your candle has reached the end of its burn life?

​

Here are some simple tips that will afford you the opportunity to remove the residual wax and save the vessel to give it a new life:

​

1. To shrink and remove the remaning wax from the bottom of the glass, simply put the vessel in the freezer for a few hours and the wax will pop right out.

​

2. In the event that the interior wall of your vessel still has wax residue, simply blow a hair dryer (on LOW heat setting) into the vessel until the wax melts. Hold the hair dryer a good distance away so that the wax does not melt too quickly and blow out of the vessel.

​

3. Quickly pour the melted wax into a garbage container (NEVER in a sink) and wipe the interior of the vessel very well with some paper towels.

​

4. If any residual wax still remains, run hot water in the vessel and wipe clean. NEVER use boiling water, as this may crack the glass.

​

5. NEVER use a recycled vessel for use with food or any type of edibles.
