Most of us have probably experienced the odd difficult night’s sleep. But for some people, difficulty falling asleep is a regular problem. Infact 22% of people in the UK struggle to fall asleep every single night, with this figure growing year on year.

With this in mind the market for sleep aids has never been bigger, including aromatherapy based products that have been proven to improve sleep, help relax and ease anxiety. In general, essential oils can have many different benefits, such as weakening certain viruses and strengthening the immune system to soothing feelings of depression. Essential oils can also be a powerful way to help you relax and sleep better.

Although research on the use of essential oils is limited, lavender essential oil is widely recognized as a natural sleep aid. For example, a 2005 study assessed how lavender essential oil affected 31 young, healthy sleepers.

Researchers found that lavender increased the amount of slow- and deep-wave sleep in participants. All participants reported feeling “higher energy” the next morning.

This well-known mattress brand wanted to develop a pillow spray to compliment the sleep-related products they sell. We created a bespoke essential oil blend for them which we then used in a natural spray that reflects the luxury branding. This included sourcing bottles, labels and boxes for which we worked with our specialist partners to achieve.

This start up customer approached us looking to create a range of home fragrance products, which were ethically sourced, natural and most importantly high quality. Tweaking some of our ‘off the shelf’ scents we created 3 essential oil blends that started with candles. This range soon grew into candles, diffusers, room sprays, hand washes and hand creams. They now have 6 scents which we formulated to work through all the products. We supported the customer from the small initial volumes to the larger scale quantities they now require.

Calling yourself eco-friendly and being eco-friendly can be two very different things…

We have always tried to be as transparent as possible with ingredients and packaging we use so you know exactly what you are buying and the story behind it.

Whenever we come up with a new product we look at what we could do to make sure it fits within our standards of sustainability and is as natural as possible. For example our first product range of natural soap bars wrapped in papers made from recycled coffee cups, these papers are produced by Croppers in one of the only plants in the world that can process coffee cups and turn them back into papers. We then use these papers in our wax printer which not only produces a high grade detail print but is much better for the environment than I regular ink printer. We use this printer for our entire label printing process across all products including soy wax candles & essential oil diffusers.

Packaging for all our products is really important not only for look and feel but how it fits in with our brand. All the containers we use are easily recyclable or reusable for example the aluminium candle tins, glass diffuser bottles including wooden top and reeds, wooden gift boxes which are filled with Wood Wool an incredibly eco friendly filler. All our merchandisers and boxes we use are made from recycled cardboard often being left with a natural finish to avoid the papers going through extra processes.

Most importantly are the ingredients used in our products. We source all of our ingredients very carefully and only use ethical suppliers that include animal cruelty free. We only use natural ingredients including our 100% pure high-grade essential oils with many of the oils we use being organic. We only use natural colours and botanicals to give our products different looks and smell.

Whether it’s the soy wax we use in our candles or the soy based diffusers its important to remember all the factors that go into a product and what you really want to spend your money on, mass produced rubbish or something handmade with care and attention!

Most homes in the UK have at least one candle in and a big majority of people enjoy burning candles and the scents they are filled with. But do you know not all candles are the same?

Paraffin wax is used in more than 95% of candle making done today, mainly because it is very inexpensive. Paraffin is the leftover by-product from the petroleum refining process. Studies have shown that this petroleum by-product can release the same harmful carcinogens into the atmosphere as your car produces when petrol is burned. When a paraffin candle in burned, it produces toxic petrol-carbon soot, which can blacken walls, furniture and ceilings and contaminate ventilation ductwork in your home. This soot goes into the air you breathe and can be hazardous to your health.

Soy wax burns slower than paraffin meaning you get a longer lasting candle (up to 50% longer). A soy candle also works well for holding onto the scent from essential oils, which we use to scent our candles. Because they burn more slowly, the scent is gradually released; there won’t be an immediate wave of strong scent. This creates a more pleasant atmosphere for most people.
Soy wax isn’t just a fancy extra, we use it because of its so much better than the alternative! Its biodegradable and our candle jars can be washed out using hot water to use again and again.

When you get your candle from Cliffe House Organics you are paying for a superior, luxury natural product that will last longer and smell all the way through.

We produced a range of hand washes, hand creams and soap bars to be sold across TK Maxx’s platforms as well as in stores. We created a bespoke range of scents and packaging to match which reflected the eco-friendly properties of the products. This included pouches made from 80% less plastic than a regular bottle and soap boxes made from recycled card. All products were blended, filled and labelled on-site.

Starting in 2018 UO stocked our Soy Mug candles throughout all their UK stores and a number throughout Europe. We produced large volumes and worked with them to label and pack to their specification. This included 2 extra labels for pricing and packaging to protect the product when shipping. These candles will be available again in UO in 2021.
