Why we started Mos Mossa

Behind the scenes at Mos Mossa - sandwax and bowls in production

At Mos Mossa, we've always had a passion for atmosphere, warmth and candlelight. But we were tired of candles that drip, soot and disappear - and not least of all the unnecessary waste. That's why we wanted to create an alternative that feels as natural as breathing.

Sandwax is our way of saying: It's possible to make it simple, aesthetic and more sustainable at the same time.

With us, you get clean flames in a safe environment - and the freedom to create the atmosphere you want, whether it's a quiet evening at home, a big celebration or a dinner at a restaurant.

The magic of small grains of sand

Sandwax in use - small grains of sand that become candles

Imagine wax as small, white grains of sand. Soft beads that you can pour into your favorite glass, mug or vase. Put in a wick, light it - and you have a candle that's just right for you.

Sandwax is made from plants, not paraffin. That means cleaner air, less spillage, and less waste. You simply refill the same container again and again. That's the magic of sand wax: you create, you reuse, and you decide.
