A strategic approach

Creating products of unimpeachable quality in a fast-changing world means we are always transitioning and innovating. Our dedicated team is not only making the safest and best quality candles out there. Our impact strategy is based on three pillars: reduce, care and engage. They guide our decision-making process on all different levels. From choosing suppliers that deliver responsibly sourced materials that meet environmental and social standards, to reducing energy consumption and GHG emissions such as energy-efficient lighting and equipment.

A proud supporter

1% for the Planet is a global movement inspiring businesses and individuals to support environmental solutions through memberships and everyday actions. By donating 1% of our summer collection sales for the Planet, the money will be invested in various environmental projects. In 2022, we donated €15,000 to the 1% for the Planet movement.

Our History

Continuous innovation and constant attention to quality is the common thread that runs throughout the history of Bolsius. It was the Bolsius brothers who laid the foundations of the current company in 1870 when they first processed beeswax into candles in the traditional way.
