Reconciling eco values with luxury, Cocolux has struck a chord with trendsetters, earning them a place in major department stores around the world in just over two years, from humble beginnings in a garage in Sydney.
Meisha Strykowski, founder and creative director of Cocolux explains: “The idea for Cocolux came as I expected with my second child. I was addicted to scented candles and pillows, which I was secretly stocking up without my husband's knowledge. It was then that I started looking at the composition of the candles I burned and discovered that paraffin wax was a by-product of hydrogenated petroleum. I also learned about the significant deforestation associated with soybean and palm production and decided to come up with a sustainable, all-natural alternative. It has taken a year of trial and error in my kitchen to develop the pure coconut wax for our candles. ”
“Coconut wax is naturally organic and comes from the raw material, the coconut meat. The production is sustainable and free of toxins, the use of pesticides and the need for deforestation. Cocolux candles are guaranteed free of soy, palm and paraffin wax. All our ingredients are also cruelty-free. Our respect for nature and our commitment to acting responsibly are at the heart of our brand philosophy. ”
“All of our products are made in Australia from locally sourced and carefully sourced materials. We research suppliers based on their ethical track record and the quality of what they offer. ”
A unique product with a beautiful story. The wonderful scents will welcome you home or give a scent experience as a gift!
