Stimpson Co., Inc. and Wicks Unlimited, Inc. joined forces in a combined effort to bring the world’s candle industry a wealth of high-quality products and creative thinking. Though the backgrounds of these two companies were significantly different, the companies themselves actually proved to complement each other perfectly. Wicks Unlimited was created simply to provide a better product, a better wick-clip assembly for the candle industry. Wicks Unlimited was able to do this to such an extent that in order to take its dreams to the next level, a partnership with a friend was necessary. The goals were the same: To provide the industry with the best and most innovative products, supported by friendly, helpful and knowledgeable customer service. We pride ourselves in successfully assisting candle manufacturers, both large and small. Our goal is to help the industry in making a safer, cleaner burning candle. And that we shall do.
