Contract Candle Manufacturing Facility

Contract Candle Pouring Services

Precision wax filling for brands with locked specifications. Your formulation. Your vessel. Our execution discipline.

Introduction

Wickbond provides contract candle pouring services for brands that already control formulation, fragrance, and packaging — and require disciplined execution at scale.

This service is designed for programs where specifications are finalized, approvals are complete, and production must be repeated with controlled variance across multiple runs.

Definition

What Contract Pouring Means at Wickbond

Contract pouring is a manufacturing-only engagement. Your specifications govern production.

You Supply

  • Approved wax system
  • Approved fragrance oil or load specification
  • Approved vessel and wick specification
  • Approved packaging components (where applicable)

We Provide

  • Controlled production environments
  • Repeatable pour execution
  • Batch-level quality controls
  • Scalable output aligned to your schedule

Context

The Problem Contract Pouring Solves

Many brands outgrow in-house pouring before they outgrow responsibility. As volume increases, internal teams encounter execution failures:

  • Inconsistent fill weights
  • Surface defects at higher speeds
  • Wick drift during production
  • Fragrance variance across batches
  • Labor instability during peak demand

Formats

Pouring Formats We Execute

Container Candle Pouring

High-volume pouring for glass, ceramic, concrete, metal, and custom vessels. Single-wick and multi-wick formats with controlled fill weight and consistent surface presentation.

Primary Format

Multi-Wick Pouring

3-wick and 5-wick configurations with balanced wax distribution. Melt pool symmetry and wick alignment maintained through controlled pour sequencing.

Extended Cycle

Pillar & Freestanding

Mold-based pouring with validated cooling cycles. Dimensional stability across bulk runs. Surface finish consistent from first unit to last.

Structural Control

Votives & Tealights

High-speed, high-volume execution for replenishment-driven programs. Dimensional precision and weight consistency monitored throughout production.

Fragrance

Fragrance Handling and Load Control

Under contract pouring, fragrance performance is governed by your specification.

  • Accurate Dosing

    Fragrance dosed at specified percentages with calibrated systems.

  • Temperature Management

    Controlled temperatures during blending to preserve volatile integrity.

  • Consistent Agitation

    Standardized protocols ensure even fragrance distribution.

  • Standardized Cure Time

    Proper cure time for optimal fragrance stability and throw.

Quality

Quality Controls During Pouring

Contract pouring is measured, not assumed.

  • Fill weight verified during active runs
  • Wick placement checked against centering specification
  • Surface inspection during cooling to identify defects
  • Batches segregated and identified for traceability
  • Post-pour inspection completed before dispatch

Alignment

Program Alignment

Contract pouring is structured for production-ready brands operating at commercial scale.

This Service Is Aligned With Brands That Have

  • Locked formulations and complete specifications
  • Defined batch sizes and delivery timelines
  • Clear quality acceptance criteria
  • Repeat or ongoing production requirements

Process

How Engagement Works

  1. Specification Review

    Wax, fragrance, wick, vessel, and volume assessed for production feasibility.

  2. Validation Pour

    Where required, validation pour conducted under production conditions.

  3. Scheduling

    Confirmed based on volume commitments and capacity availability.

  4. Production

    Executed strictly against approved specifications.

  5. Dispatch

    Packing, palletization, and export documentation configured to your requirements.
