Dixie Grace Candle Company, a Columbia-based wax melts manufacturer, offers “Sunday Salvation Wax Melts,” which contain juices of apples, peach, and Mandarin oranges, and lavender, musk, and amber.

The company offers wax melts as a better and flameless alternative to candles for churchgoers. Furthermore, rising awareness about sustainability and eco-friendly products has driven consumer preference for natural wax melts, such as those made from beeswax and coconut wax.

Consumers in the region are increasingly looking for safer and greener alternatives to industrial wax. As a result, several companies in the wax melts market are excessively marketing and advertising their eco-friendly products on social media channels to gain customer traction.
