The Production Process and Customization Options of Ceramic Candle Jars

In the aromatherapy candle market, ceramic candle cans have become the preferred packaging containers for many high-end fragrance brands due to their high aesthetic standards, durability and environmental friendliness. Compared with glass or metal containers, ceramic candle jars can not only withstand high temperatures but also have richer visual expressiveness. Through different glazes, textures and shapes, they can present a unique brand style. This article will take you on a deep dive into the production process of ceramic candle holders, customization options, and the differences between various styles of candle holders and candlesticks.

Production Process of Ceramic Candle Jars

1. Raw material preparation
   Ceramic candle jars usually use high-quality porcelain clay or stone clay as raw materials. These raw materials are finely ground and screened to ensure that the surface of the finished product after firing is smooth and fine.
2. Molding
   According to the design style, ceramic candle cans can be formed by processes such as throwing, grouting or pressing. Different forming methods have an impact on shape complexity and output. For instance, grouting forming is more suitable for mass production of tanks with complex curves.
3. Drying and grilling
   After the ceramic candle jars are formed, they need to be naturally dried and then undergo a low-temperature bisque firing (about 800℃) to remove excess moisture and organic impurities, preparing for glazing.
4. グレージング
   The glaze treatment of ceramic candle jars is a key step in showcasing the brand style. Common glaze surfaces include:

• Glossy glaze: Bright colors, suitable for modern minimalist style.
• Matte glaze: With a warm and smooth texture, it is suitable for Nordic, minimalist or retro styles.
• Handcrafted glaze: A unique flowing glaze effect, enhancing the artistic sense.

5. High-temperature firing
   After glaze treatment, the ceramic candle jars are fired at high temperature of 1200℃ to 1300℃ to make the jar body hard and dense, with good color stability and excellent heat resistance.

Traditional Types of Ceramic Candle Holders

• Round ceramic candle holder: Traditional style, suitable for most fragrant candles.
• Square ceramic candle holders: They have a robust, modern style and are often utilized for customization by high-end brands.

• Candlesticks: They are more inclined to serve a supporting and decorative purpose, often used for columnar candles and tea wax. The materials can be ceramic, metal or glass, emphasizing their compatibility with the indoor environment.
