Crayons are a staple in any child's art supply collection, but have you ever wondered what they're made of? Let's dive into the fascinating world of crayon manufacturing.
First off, the main ingredient in crayons is wax, which can come from a variety of sources such as petroleum, soybeans, or even beeswax. The wax is melted down and mixed with pigment, which gives the crayon its color. Additional ingredients such as stearic acid and paraffin are also added to help the crayon maintain its shape and texture.
At Native Crayons, we take great care in sourcing our ingredients from sustainable and environmentally friendly sources.
That's why we're pleased to say that all of our supplies and materials are sourced from within the UK, where we're based.
We also ensure that our crayons meet all necessary safety standards, including the UKCA (UK Conformity Assessed) mark, which verifies that our products meet the relevant health, safety, and environmental protection requirements for sale within the UK market. Parents can feel confident that they're giving their children a safe and high-quality coloring experience with Native Crayons.
In addition to our commitment to using safe and sustainable ingredients, we also take pride in our handmade production process. Each crayon is carefully poured and shaped by hand, ensuring a high level of quality and attention to detail. Our unique shapes, such as paw prints and dinosaurs, also add an extra element of fun to the coloring experience.
So, next time you or your child pick up a crayon, remember the intricate process that goes into making it. And if you want a truly sustainable and safe option, choose Native Crayons.
