How to choose the right candles for restaurants

Many owners and managers may associate candles with a waxy mess that melts all over the table top. When business is booming, the last thing you want to do is scrape dried wax off of your tiled or wood tabletops. For linen tablecloths, messy candles could be potentially ruinous, creating unnecessary expenses for your restaurant. Believe it or not, it is possible to get all the luxury of candlelight without the mess. Fuel cells with liquid paraffin in them take the wax out of the equation, giving you a clean, low-maintenance glow.

In the service industry, candles that require constant lighting and re-lighting are a constant drain on your resources, and can take employee focus away from the customers—not to mention all the money you could waste on low-quality candles when half of it burns down in an hour. When you buy a fuel cell filled with liquid paraffin, the control is back in your hands. Since a wide variety of sizes are offered, you get to choose how long you’d like the flame to last. Whether you want a dainty 8-hour tea light, a mid-range12- or 15-hour fuel cell, or a long-lasting 26- 45- or even 50-hour cell, there’s sure to be something to meet your restaurant’s needs. Pair with a colorful solid or frosted candle holder and you’ve got an instant mood setter that adds a personal touch and comfortable feel to your business.

You don’t need to give up candlelight dinners to keep your restaurant free of mess. With a one-step process, you simply light it and it set down, and you’re good to go for the rest of the night.
