About Cozy Glow

Have you ever bought a scented candle that smelled great in the jar, but when burning it was a huge disappointment? Let us tell you why we're different.


About Cozy Glow

At Cozy Glow, our mission is to provide high-quality, eco-friendly candles that enhance the atmosphere of any space while promoting sustainability and environmental consciousness.

Our Company Story

Cozy Glow was founded by Ashley and Kristian.

Ashley, originally from the Cotswolds, has been an active member of his community for many years, serving as a scout leader and helping people find their self-confidence and skills. After working all over Europe, Ashley returned to London to pursue his dreams of running his own business.

One night, driven to find a better solution to the candles being marketed on TV and social media, Ashley was inspired to create a company that genuinely cares about its customers and community. He became a key member and now trustee and event organiser for our town's new charity, Coulsdon Community Partnership. Ashley has been responsible for arranging the town's Christmas, Easter, and Halloween events, as well as implementing free community yoga classes, Coulsdon history walks, art, and meditation classes, and more.

Kristian has since moved to Leeds to pursue his tech dreams and has settled down with his husband, Paul.

How We Evolved

Since our inception, Cozy Glow has evolved from a small kitchen operation into a thriving eco-conscious business. We have expanded our product line, improved our manufacturing processes, and implemented sustainable practices at every stage of production. In addition to our signature soy wax candles, we now offer custom fragrances created by our expert team of scent specialists. Our Coulsdon store features recyclable and refillable candle jars, allowing customers to enjoy our candles while minimising waste.

Our “Aha!” Moment

Our "aha!" moment came when we realized the harmful effects of traditional scented candles on both our health and the environment. This realisation fuelled our commitment to create candles made with 100% soy wax and natural oils, free from synthetic fragrances and harmful chemicals.

One Planet 

Cozy Glow serves environmentally conscious consumers who prioritise sustainability and seek high-quality, natural products for their homes. Our candles are perfect for individuals who appreciate the calming ambiance and delightful aromas of soy-based scents.

What We’re Offering You

We offer a range of handcrafted soy wax candles infused with the best oils to provide the enveloping fragrance you desire, carefully curated to evoke a sense of comfort and tranquility. Our products provide a cleaner alternative to traditional candles, ensuring a longer-lasting and more aromatic experience.

Whom We’ve Served

Over the years, Cozy Glow has served countless customers who share our commitment to sustainability and quality. From individuals looking to create a cozy atmosphere in their homes to businesses seeking eco-friendly gifts for their clients, our candles have been enjoyed by a diverse range of customers.

Our Values

At Cozy Glow, we are guided by our core values of sustainability, quality, and transparency. We are dedicated to reducing our environmental impact, ensuring the highest standards of craftsmanship, and being honest and transparent in all aspects of our business.

LGBTQI+ Positive Business 

At Cozy Glow we celebrate the LGBTQ+ community, affirm our identities, reflect on the inequities of the past and present, and take meaningful action to create change. In 2022, everyone deserves to bring their authentic self to work, regardless of their sexual orientation.
With these ideas, we can grow, have fun together while celebrating Pride.

Commitment to the Environment

At Cozy Glow, we are committed to environmental sustainability through the help of our customers. We are proud to have funded the planting of 12,819 trees across 18 projects, and supported the prevention of 121.68 tCO2e from being emitted through 60 verified carbon avoidance projects. Together, we are making a difference for our planet.
