Create stunning pillar candles, votives, wax melts, and tarts with IGI's 6028 Paraffin/Soy Pillar Blend Wax. This paraffin/soy pillar blend offers the strong fragrance throw and easy burning of paraffin, with the appealing look and usability of soy. IGI 6028 resists frosting and incorporates candle dye for smooth, beautiful finished products. It requires no additional additives to achieve optimal performance—just add color and fragrance. Also, with its high melting point, this wax is ideal for candles that will be shipped to customers in warm weather.

Cases contain 4 slabs of wax packaged together in a reinforced cardboard box.

Candle Maker's Notes: 
Packaged as hard slabs, IGI 6028 can be a bit of a challenge to break apart. It can be cut using a sharp knife, though using a hammer or similar to break down the wax into chunks first can be helpful! 

Troubleshooting Tips

  • Review our Lab Notes for details on using this wax.
  • Expect lighter shades when using dye due to the soy content.
  • Pillars and Votives have a recommended max fragrance of 6%.
  • Wax Melts and Tarts have a recommended max fragrance of 9%.
  • Use our Wick Guide to help get your testing started.

Best Pillar Wax Ever!
Shela S 2024-10-16

I am relatively new to my candle business. I've tried several waxes for my pillars and discovered the IGI6028. I love love love it! White candles come out super smooth and creamy. It holds color and scent well. I've noticed that my metal molds require a second pour, but my silicone molds rarely do.

I shopped around even after trying this wax because, let's face it, shipping through Candle Science is expensive. However, after trying a couple of parasoy blends from other places, I decided to come back to the IGI6028 because the quality is unmatched, imo.

I tried this wax because a friend of mine referred it and I am currently ordering more! Anyone complaining about this wax for any reason, their review should be completely disregarded. This wax is phenomenal. In terms of it being hard and having to break it with a hammer, that's expected since this is a pillar wax.

Fantastic!

I’ve tried so many waxes over the past year, trying to find something that doesn’t melt in the FL heat, doesn’t leave my packaging and jars full of marks, doesn’t lose its color right away ….. holds a great scent and doesn’t look like plastic.
This is it for me! It’s soft-ish, almost like a soy wax, but not too soft. It resists frosting (although I have been lucky in that dept thus far, knock on wood). Its hot throw is amazing! It has got a high melting point so I don’t have to worry about mailing from FL in the summer months meaning I don’t have to ship M, Tues., and Wed. only.
The only downfall …. And Candle science could fix this for us 😉😉, is … it’s not available in a flake version. The reviews are NOT exaggerating when they say it’s hard. I couldn’t even break it with my hammer or hammer claw. I eventually got through it but it wasn’t fun.
I’ll chop away with an axe if I have to for this product though. From here on out, it will be the only wax I use. I’m so glad I won’t have to spend oodles on wax that just sits anymore, as I try to find a better product!
Yay!

I am so impressed by this wax 🤩 The CT/HT is incredible & it is so easy to make pillar/wax melts with!! No frosting, no sinkholes, absolutely perfect for whipped wax!! The only minor downside is that it’s hard to cut but SO WORTH IT!! I’ll cut a slab of this wax any day if that means I can make perfect wax melts!!

I’ve been trying this wax since I bought it and the results are awesome. I made 6 pillar mold candles and cold/hot throw is great, easy to use with molds and i tried for color test also amazing. I’ll use this wax for my pillar candles, easy to use and wicking.
