Low-VOC reed diffuser base
Are you struggling to find a new market for your product?
Do you find that jar candles are just a stale concept that doesn’t really stand out?
Looking for a way to bring home fragrance to your customers who may shy away from burning candles?
Reed Diffusers can allow you to accomplish solutions to each of these situations. In the past you would need to have your candle fragrance oils formulated to perform as diffuser oils. New on the market is our Low-VOC Reed Diffuser Base. This is a base you blend with your fragrance oil to create your custom reed diffuser oil. Our manufacturer suggests 10%-20% fragrance oil mixed into the diffuser base, although the base will hold up to 25% fragrance oil for a premium product.
We’ve tested a few different reed diffuser products and until now were not very satisfied with our results. Most of the problem was with the oil base itself not carrying the oil into the air. Secondly, reed selection is important. We’ve selected rattan reeds for optimum “wicking” of the diffuser oil through the cellular structure of the reeds. Reeds contain 20 or more “channels” per reed to aid in this process and release the fragrance naturally.
Reed diffusers offer a flame-less alternative to burning candles. They do not require constant supervision in order to fragrance your home. Although, care must be taken in high traffic areas where children or pets may be playing, the risk is still significantly less than a burning candle.
For best results, offer oil diffuser bottles in sizes ranging from 2-8 ounces. Ideally you will want 1/2-2/3 of your reed sticking out of the bottle. This will allow maximum surface area of the reed to diffuse naturally. Allow the reeds to fan or spread across the opening of the bottle. Place in a room with good air movement to help achieve the fragrance throw. Using more reeds will also help move the fragrance into the air, although it will use up the diffuser oil base more quickly.

I enjoyed this blog…one thing I found helpful is turn the reeds once a week this refreshes the scent.
Hi poohbear! Thanks for the comment, you can certainly turn the reeds, and just replace with new ones when you notice they might be getting a little dusty, since they will clog up after a while.
