This flat cotton candle wick from Creativ Company is designed for hobbyists and small-scale producers creating handmade candles. Its primary benefit is ensuring a dependable, clean, and stable burn for various candle types, offering professional-quality results. A potential consideration is that its suitability is best for medium-sized dipped and moulded candles within specific diameter ranges. Key features include a flat cotton design for even burning, compatibility with common wax types, and ease of handling and customization.

This wick is recommended for dipped candles with a diameter of approximately 22–30 mm.
While primarily tested with paraffin and soy waxes, beeswax can be used, though it may require adjustments as beeswax has a different burning characteristic. It's advisable to test first.
The wick is supplied as a 3-meter length, weighing approximately 100 g.
The thickness of the flat cotton wick is approximately 1.2 cm.
The product description does not specify if the wick is pre-waxed. Typically, candle wicks are either pre-waxed or designed to be coated with wax during the candle-making process.
Store the wick in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture to maintain its quality and prevent degradation.
Use clean scissors or a wick trimmer to cut the wick to about 1/4 inch (6 mm) before each use. This helps ensure a steady flame and prevents soot buildup.
Ensure the wick is properly centered and taut. Check if the wick is too short for the wax pool depth or if the wax type requires a thicker wick. Try a slightly longer wick or ensure the wax is fully melted.
The wick may be too thick for the candle diameter or wax type. Trim the wick shorter (to about 1/4 inch before lighting) or consider if a different wick size is needed for optimal performance with your specific wax and container.
Verify the wick is centered and that the candle is burning within the recommended diameter range for this wick. Ensure adequate wax is available to form a full melt pool that reaches the edges of the candle.
This can sometimes happen with certain waxes. Ensure the wick is properly secured and centered. If the issue persists, consider using a wick sustainer or checking if a different wick type might be more suitable for that specific wax.
