Burn Testing
CT Candle Burn Testing Service — Stop Guessing, Start Measuring
Every candle that carries a Candle-Tech seal — or any candle that wants to be considered — is burned under controlled conditions in our independent testing service. We measure what matters and deliver a report that your QA team, your retailer buyers, and your consumers can rely on. The same protocol, the same equipment, the same standards every time.
What We Measure on Every Burn
Flame stability — height, movement, stability, and consistency tracked second by second. Burn temperature — wax pool, container outside surface, and full safety analysis. Burn rate and yield — grams consumed per hour and total burn time measured against the label claim. Emissions profile — soot output, particulate matter, and afterglow soot. Every reading is timestamped and streamed directly into CDAS for analysis.
