Sustainable Craftsmanship: The Heart of The Bequem

At The Bequem, we believe true luxury doesn’t shout; it whispers through mindful choices and honest craftsmanship. Every candle we make is an expression of our belief that beauty should never come at the planet’s expense.

🪵 Our Ingredients: Pure and Clean

Each Bequem candle begins with 100% European soy wax; a renewable, biodegradable, and non-toxic alternative to paraffin. It burns longer, cleaner, and at a lower temperature, allowing our carefully curated scents to unfold slowly and gracefully. Soy wax is also completely safe to burn around children and pets, making it as gentle as it is sustainable.

Our fragrance oils are crafted in the EU, IFRA-certified, vegan, and not tested on animals, ensuring every note you experience meets the highest ethical and environmental standards. For our wicks, we use wood and cotton, tested to achieve the perfect balance of warmth, sound, and scent throw; that soft crackling of a wooden wick is our little nod to the comfort of a fireplace.

🕯️Handcrafted in Berlin, with Love

Every candle is hand-poured in small batches in our Berlin studio. This slow process allows us to eliminate waste, maintain consistency, and ensure that each piece carries the human touch it deserves. Our partnerships extend this philosophy: we collaborate with small local businesses for our packaging, marketing, and materials, nurturing a community of makers who share our love for quality and conscience.

♻️ Designed for Reuse and Renewal

Our packaging is fully recyclable, and our candle vessels are designed to be reused, refilled, or returned. Through our Bequem Recycling Program, customers can exchange:

• 5 The Bequem candle glasses for a free Classic Small Candle, or

• 5 The Bequem Travel Candle tins for a new Travel Candle.

This initiative is our way of closing the loop; turning everyday luxury into a cycle of care. Each glass or tin returned becomes a small act of kindness toward the environment and a shared promise for a more thoughtful future.

🤎 More Than a Candle - A Conscious Choice

Because for us, sustainability isn’t a trend or a checkbox; it’s a love language. It’s respect for materials, for people, and for the spaces our candles illuminate. When you light a Bequem candle, you’re not just brightening a room; you’re joining a movement that values craft, care, and the quiet beauty of doing things right.
