Trends and bestselling wholesale wax melt burners

Wholesale wax melt burners, and the wax melts themselves, are one of the most popular and most searched products on CREOATE. Here are some of the trends we’ve noticed:

Fun shapes for wax melts

While you can buy wax melts in snap bars, cubes, or disks, look out for some of the more fun shapes, too. From simple hearts to intricate skulls or even gingerbread houses, and everything in between, some of the most popular wax melts start out almost like an ornament in their own right.

Autumnal themes

Whether it’s wholesale wax burners shaped like pumpkins or decorated with leaves, or autumnal wax melt scents, such as pumpkin spiced latte or woodier scents, it’s clear that wax melts and wax burners are associated with the cosying up as the weather turns colder, and this is reflected in the product details.

Petals and flowers embedded within the wax melts

We’ve noticed that some of the most popular wax melts don’t just smell great and come in pleasing shapes, they also often have dried or pressed flowers embedded in them for extra decoration.

Wax melts with relaxing scents

Many of the more popular wholesale wax melts are designed to help their user take a moment for themselves, with calming, relaxing, or even meditative scents. This makes them ideal for gifting someone a few moments of calm.

What to Add to a Oil Burners and Wax Melts Wholesale Range

Build a range that includes different oil burner styles, wax melt fragrances and price points to suit a variety of customers. Consider materials, burner size, fragrance options, compatibility and care instructions so retailers can choose products with confidence.

Think about how oil burners and wax melts will be displayed together, whether by fragrance family, home decor style or gifting occasion. Pair bestselling scents with decorative burners and complementary accessories to create an easy-to-shop collection.

Popular Home Fragrance Types and Pairings

Customers often shop home fragrance by format as much as scent. Help them compare Scented Candles, Pillar Candles, Tin Candles and Reed Diffusers, then use scent-led language for popular themes such as floral, citrus, woody, calming or festive fragrances.

Oil burners and wax melts pair naturally with candle holders, decorative trays, home decor and gift collections. Grouping complementary products together helps customers build complete home fragrance displays and encourages additional purchases.

FAQ

Why are wax melts so popular?

Wax melts are a popular choice among many customers since they typically have a longer burn time than candles or other scented products. The scent of wax melts also tends to linger for longer, making them a highly affordable option. And with their recent rise in popularity, there’s no shortage of choice on the market! Many wax melt suppliers sell melts in all kinds of fun colours, themes, and scents, and good quality wholesale wax burners can easily be found along with low-cost tealights for regular use.

Are oil burners and wax burners the same thing?

The terms oil burner and wax burner (or wax melt burner) are often used interchangeably, and many burners are designed to deal with both. Some, however, are only designed to be used with essential oils (diluted in water). So if you’re looking to stock wholesale wax burners, be sure to check the individual product description for more details.

Do I need a licence to sell wax melts in the UK?

You don’t need a licence to sell wax melts in the UK. However, always include relevant information and warnings on your product packaging, and consider investing in product and/or public liability insurance to cover yourself should a customer make a claim, or have an accident while using your products. If you have any other questions or concerns, don’t hesitate to reach out to your local trading standards authority for further information and clarity regarding selling wax melts and oil burners in your area.

What is the recommended profit margin when selling wax melts?

Pricing your wax melts will vary depending on the time taken, and cost of materials used to make them. However, generally speaking, for most homeware products we would recommend a profit margin of around 40-50% to begin with.
