2. We're altering the way individuals perceive candles—anything has the potential to be a candle in our view.

3. We contribute to healthier/living environments, wedding/event/hospitality industry while helping to reduce waste and offer cost-effective solutions.
Chameleon Sand Candle is plant-based, non-toxic, and doesn't affect the air quality. Most mass-produced candles contain paraffin wax, synthetic fragrances or dyes, and artificial additives, which may trigger allergies, asthma, and headaches. Paraffin wax is derived from petroleum waste – a by-product of making gasoline. When it burns it releases toxins and creates soot.
Candle sand is inherently available in a natural white colour (Chameleon Sand Candle is 100% natural and only comes in white colour), requiring the addition of liquid candle dyes to achieve various colours.
In Australia, Safety Data Sheets mandate the disclosure of hazardous chemicals, while non-hazardous ingredients are frequently omitted as trade secrets. Consequently, dyes may contain 40-80% undisclosed components, potentially impacting human health, particularly in enclosed spaces during candle burning. This lack of transparency complicates consumer product assessment, as companies often refrain from providing insights into potential health effects, making informed decisions challenging for consumers.
Moreover, in Australia, there are currently no established safety standards for candle production. Recognizing the ethical and moral obligation to prioritize consumer safety, Chameleon Sand Candle has made a deliberate choice to exclusively provide white-coloured candle sand. This decision reflects our commitment to offering products that prioritize safety and well-being for our valued customers. Read the full Whitepaper text HERE.
Not only is Chameleon Sand Candle a great option for people with allergies, but also for those who don't love the strong smells of fragranced candles.
So, this is the healthier environment part, and we always say that we like our candles, like we like our people – NON-TOXIC.
According to the Wedding Industry Report (by Easy Weddings) the number of marriages predicted for 2023 is 139,000. Out of those, about 80% are likely to use candles (with real flames) and on average there are 50-60 candles used per wedding.¹ This totals over 6 million candles used in 2023! And in most cases, candles only get used once, and then just thrown out. We think that living in the 21st century, we must do better and find ways to reduce waste.

5. We are not just building our business. We are building ourselves.
We truly believe in making mistakes and have created a safe environment for everyone in our team to try and test new ideas and approaches without the fear of failure. It is okay to fail and make mistakes, but unacceptable not to learn from them. We also believe in rapid growth. Although we are only seeking A players (you know if you are one!) to join our team, it is not just about high performance at work. We encourage every single team member to have higher goals and visions in all areas of their life. We support each other by sharing ideas, thoughts, books, and sometimes new great meditation techniques. We ignite new ideas and thought patterns and keep each other accountable if required.

6. We believe in change. In fact, the change (and taxes they say!) is the only certain thing in this world.
We look in different places, ask other questions, and try new things. We change and innovate fast; this is how we stay ahead of the competition. As soon as we get comfortable and have everything running in order, it´s usually time to uplevel.
We also believe that the old idea of the rigid 9 - 5 job belongs in a museum. We are committed to nurturing a progressive workspace that gives you the freedom to excel on your own terms.
It takes a special breed of person to thrive in this environment. You must be comfortable with change, and rapid learning and quite often aim for near-impossible goals.
If you love the thrill of rapid change and constant innovation, this is the place for you.

7. Embracing Individuality within the Team Tapestry
At Chameleon Sand Candle, our team is a family of diverse tales and backgrounds, representing a harmonious blend of three different nationalities. We take pride in the unique stories, quirks, and flavours each team member brings to our collective narrative. In this creative sanctuary, we cherish the fact that no two individuals are alike. From the quiet contemplations of one team member to the infectious laughter of another, our workspace thrives on the beautiful symphony of personalities.
It's a place where your individuality is not just appreciated; it's celebrated. We believe that the beauty of our team lies in its diversity. Like a mosaic, we come together, each with our distinct patterns, to create something far more exquisite than any one of us could achieve alone. The collaborative spirit that binds us ensures that our differences are not just acknowledged but embraced.
We celebrate a heartwarming tradition every Friday called "2-Minute Appreciation." During this time, each team member takes two minutes to express gratitude for someone who went the extra mile, did something special, or simply exhibited kindness and friendliness throughout the week.
Additionally, every new team member engages in a unique exercise called "3 Most Important Questions." This allows us to delve into each other's souls, understanding the experiences they aspire to have in life and the paths they envision for personal growth. It's a wonderful way to connect on a deeper level and foster a supportive team environment.
We're not just colleagues; we're a community where personal stories intertwine with professional goals. It's this blend of individual warmth and collective ambition that makes Chameleon Sand Candle more than just a workplace—it's a home for hearts from different corners of the world.
