Schulthess Kerzen GmbH

Since 1978 Schulthess Kerzenhandwerk has been producing candles by hand in Switzerland.
Fragrances and colors are our passion. We invest a lot of time and love in the selection and manufacture of our products.

The production of Schulthess Kerzenhandwerk began in a small, idyllic cowshed near Bern. Using ordinary hotplates and pans, Theo Schulthess began melting wax and then pouring it into moulds.
Today, Schulthess Kerzenhandwerk in Utzenstorf employs 6 people and is run by two generations of the Schulthess family, Theo Schulthess and his daughter Leonie Schulthess.
As was the case 40 years ago, all candles are still made by hand in Switzerland, now with a professional infrastructure and optimized production processes.

Schulthess Kerzenhandwerk attaches great importance to high-quality raw materials. The fragrances and colors are selected with great care and are based on the current trends and needs of customers.
While production was initially based on pillar candles without fragrance, it became increasingly clear over time that international competition in this area was too strong for such a small company. So Theo Schulthess began to look for new ways. Scented candles as normal pillar candles and not poured into jars were to become the company's new mainstay. Since then, we have been working on the further development of our range twice a year. We come up with new fragrance names and blends. Discarding them again until we hold the final product in our hands after a long development period. Scented candles are our passion. Three years ago, together with several of our fragrance oil suppliers, we were able to launch a new and fragrant range of scented candles made from 100% natural essences. This new line was a great success right from the start. And with great dedication and care, this range of 100% natural oils is also expanded twice a year.
