Each clamshell has six individual cavities and holds approximately 2.4 ounces total, giving you a standard sized break apart bar in a compact format.
These clamshells are made from PET plastic, which offers several advantages:
PET is BPA free and is the same plastic used in many soda and beverage bottles
Considered more environmentally friendly than PVC based clamshells
Provides a durable, rigid structure that protects your finished wax melts
The black color adds a bold, modern look that:
Hides wax residue on the back or edges
Provides a strong contrast for lighter colored labels
Helps your product stand out in displays and online listings
Each clamshell measures approximately:
4.25 inches long
2.9 inches wide
1 inch deep (closed size)
Interior layout:
Six individual cavities
Combined capacity of about 2.4 ounces of wax per clamshell
Recommended pour temperatures:
Best poured between 140 F and 150 F
