What You’re “Breathing In” from Heated Plastic:

1. Chemical Off-Gassing (VOCs)
When the plastic mesh heats up near the flame:
• Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) evaporate from the heated plastic
• These are invisible gases released into your room air
• You inhale these chemical vapors with every breath
2. Combustion Byproducts
If the plastic gets hot enough or touches the flame:
• Produces toxic smoke and fumes
• Releases chemicals like formaldehyde, benzene, styrene
• Creates airborne particles you breathe into your lungs
3. Microplastics (Potential)
Some research suggests heated plastics can release:
• Microscopic plastic particles suspended in air
• These nano-particles can be inhaled deep into lungs

More Accurate Statement:
“This is the plastic mesh releasing toxic fumes and chemical vapors into your indoor air when heated.”
Or:
“When heated near the flame, this plastic mesh off-gasses chemicals you breathe in every time you light a ‘non-drip’ candle.”
The Science:
• Plastic doesn’t have to burn to release harmful chemicals
• Heat alone (50-100°C+) causes plastics to release VOCs
• Indoor air concentration builds up in enclosed spaces
• Repeated exposure over time is the concern
“What’s really in your ‘non-drip’ candles? Plastic mesh that releases harmful chemical vapors into your home air when heated. ReGen Candles contain ZERO plastic - just pure, natural wax.”
Every Candle Wastes 15-20% of Its Wax.
ReGen Recovers It All.
No matter which candle you buy—luxury beeswax, artisan soy, or traditional paraffin—you’re throwing away 15-20% of the wax when the wick burns out. That leftover wax clinging to the edges and bottom? It’s perfectly good wax you paid for, just abandoned because the wick can’t reach it.
ReGen Candle System changes everything.
Place any standard candle on ReGen. As it burns, natural drips collect in the transparent chamber. When the wick burns out completely, gentle heating melts all remaining wax—that “wasted” 15-20%—and recovers it into the collection chamber. A new wick hole positions automatically as the wax cools.
100% wax recovery. Zero waste. One candle becomes part of a new candle.
Buy one candle. Enjoy it many times. Same wax. Pure sustainability.
