Employee Commuting

Packaging
We will be working with our new packaging vendor to redesign smaller the wholesale packaging for our re-launch of our mini candle size. We haven't had this product in stock for awhile and want to bring it back with a smaller footprint.
Packaging
We are redesigning the packaging smaller for our e-commerce and wholesale reed diffusers. Notoriously large packaging to fit the reed sticks has made this a historically difficult redesign as well as taken up far too much space.

03 Compensate
P.F. Candle Co. is a home fragrance company from Los Angeles. Sustainability at P.F. started in 2008, when the brand was founded as an Etsy shop, repurposing discarded items like spent pizzeria candles and old books into new items. Since inception, sustainability has been a core value of how we run our business, and our commitment has only grown through our Climate Neutral certification. P.F. prioritizes using renewable materials (like soy wax), limiting excess packaging, and seeking out green energy to power our facilities. The choice to use soy wax instead of paraffin reduces our carbon footprint by thousands of tonnes. We encourage our employees to make sustainable choices by providing fully subsidized modes of transportation like a free metro pass and have composting at each facility. We give back to organizations annually that support the environment and environmental justice causes.
