Sustainable Products & Practices in Everyday Life

Our Commitment to Sustainability

At KAIA Fragrances, we believe that luxury and sustainability can go hand in hand. From the way we make our products to how we package and deliver them, we’re always looking for ways to tread more lightly on the planet, without compromising on quality or experience.

All of our products are lovingly hand-poured in small batches at our Gold Coast studio, allowing us to minimise waste and maintain exceptional craftsmanship. We’re proud to use recyclable materials wherever possible, and we’re always working to reduce single-use packaging across our range.

Here are some of the ways we support sustainability 

Understanding Sustainable Products

• Minimalist packaging is designed to be as beautiful as it is responsible.  It is free from heavy printing to reduce waste and energy use, and fully recyclable to leave a lighter footprint without compromising on style.
• Box filler used for transit is plastic free and made from fully recyclable paper.
• Our branded tissue paper is fully recyclable and compostable.  
• Recyclable Kraft paper tape is used to seal our mailing boxes rather than traditional sticky tape. 

Production 

• Our wick-centering tool features a magnetic design, eliminating the need for wick stickers and reducing overall material use. 
•  Our small-batch, hand-poured candles use less energy and create less waste than mass-produced alternatives, allowing for greater quality control and a gentler impact on the environment. 

Reuse 

Reed Diffuser Refills

Our 200ml Refillable Diffuser Bottles are designed with sustainability in mind. Rather than discarding your entire diffuser, you can simply top it up with one of our recyclable glass refills and a fresh set of reeds. It’s a small switch that makes a big difference—less waste, less packaging, and more of the fragrance you love.

Thoughtful Materials

• Glass Jars & Bottles – Recyclable and reusable

• Minimal Packaging – Simple, protective, and low-waste

• Small-Batch Production – Helps reduce overproduction and excess inventory

Candle Jars 

• We don’t recommend reusing our candle jars for new candles, due to the integrity of the glass, and potential safety hazard, after reheating more than once. However, there are still many creative ways to re-purpose your KAIA Fragrances jar. Simply clean the jar with warm, soapy water, remove any remaining wax, and let it dry completely. Then, transform it into a stylish new addition to your home.

Here are some ideas: 

• • A perfect bathroom item, from make-up brushes, to a toothbrush holder or for cotton buds, the list really is endless.

  • Gorgeous pen holder for your office space. 

  • Cute vase for small flowers. 

• • Spare change or random item jar. 

The KAIA Way

We know we’re not perfect, but we’re committed to doing better each day. Choosing a KAIA product means supporting a small business that genuinely cares—about the planet, about your home, and about creating calm, beautiful moments that last.
