REKINDLE

Humans are not nocturnal, we depend on light to be active and effective.
Electricity made candles a curiosity and no longer a necessity, their use nearly stopped, but their popularity has been steadily increasing since the 1960s – clearly we do not want to be without candle light.

In Sweden, we now use more than 20 000 tonnes per year. Throwing away just 1/5 of that candle results in 4000 tonnes of wax being thrown away each year, wax that could be re-moulded.

Rekindle helps you re-mould your left over candle stumps with the help of a candle holder. Use one stump as a heat source to melt and then re-mould the remaining collected wax into a new candle.
