OUR STORY
We are Julia and Carola, the founders of JUNA. Our journey began as a light-hearted escape during the 2021 lockdown and quickly turned into an incredible business venture. In the beginning, we started crafting candles just for the sheer joy of it, finding entertainment during those challenging times.
Little did we know that our fun hobby would transform into a thriving business as sales soared during our first Valentine's Day, Easter, and Mother's Day! We soon realised that our customers desired a personal touch, leading us on a journey of trial and error until we mastered the art of customising the entire label, scents and packaging.
For us, candles have become more than products – they are an integral part of our family's daily life. Regardless of the season or occasion, there's always a candle aglow, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Sustainability is a cornerstone of our business philosophy, prompting our decision to exclusively use soy wax for our candles. Soy wax, derived from soybeans, is natural, renewable, and vegan.
The benefits of soy wax are numerous – it burns cleaner and longer than paraffin wax, emitting fewer toxins and contributing to a healthier environment. Our candles not only enhance the ambiance but also align with our commitment to a greener planet. This eco-friendly choice extends to our packaging.
