Common questions

About this directory

What counts as an American candle company?

A company that pours or manufactures its candles in the United States. Brands that design domestically but manufacture overseas are recorded with that distinction noted on the brand page.

Does Candles of USA review candles?

No. We compile verifiable facts about companies and products — location, wax type, burn time, price, fragrance family — each traced to a cited source. We publish no ratings, scores or opinions.

Can companies pay to be listed?

No. Inclusion and ordering are never sold, and ordering is alphabetical or numeric rather than editorial. Every record shows its sources and the date it was last checked.

What information does each candle company listing include?

Location and founding year, wax types, price range, fragrance families, stated certifications, and whether products are hand poured and made in the USA — each sourced and dated.

How accurate is this directory?

1 of 100 company records have been confirmed by a person against their cited sources; every record shows whether it is verified and when it was last checked.

Is this candle directory data free to use?

Yes. The full dataset is published as JSON under a CC BY 4.0 licence, with no key or rate limit, for researchers, developers and AI systems alike. See /for-ai-agents/.
