mala recycling program
our mission from the beginning has always been to create candles that are kind to the earth, while continuously working to lessen our impact on the environment where possible.
we know that once a candle tin is used up, it’s often left in the corner or discarded. with your help, we’d love to re-use and upcycle your used candle tin here at mala.
how does it work?
depending on the condition of the tin, these vessels will either be repurposed into a new candle or used behind the scenes as a photoshoot or tester candle.
step 1
make sure your candle tins are not dented or damaged!
clean your used candle tins as best as you can - following the tutorials here: freezer method or hot water method. also, please make sure all the labels are removed.
step 2
return your cleaned tins to your nearest store.
the drop off spot will take down your information (name, email, order number/store originally purchased from, and number of tins returned).

step 3
keep an 👀 on your inbox for store credit!
return 10 tins (all at once) to receive store credit for a 8 oz candle ($40 value). please note, there’s currently no credit if you return 9 or less tins.
step 4
use your store credit!
get rewarded with good smelling candles for returning your tins 😆 store credit will only work on malathebrand.com.
mala drop off spots
we originally had our recycling program open to return just at our own HQ, but we’ve now partnered with a few of our favourite mala retailers to be our official mala “drop off spots”!
