La nostra azienda, da ormai quattro generazioni, è rappresentata dal legame imprescindibile tra il nome Bianchi e la sua materia prima, da sempre forgiata con cura e amore.
Produrre candele di qualità e su misura è il nostro viaggio ininterrotto dal 1902, anno in cui è nata a Varese la nostra azienda.
Tutto è iniziato con la produzione di candele prevalentemente ad uso liturgico, che già lasciavano intravedere una forte volontà nell’offrire prodotti personalizzati e di alta qualità.
Appassionati e lungimiranti, abbiamo scoperto, già dagli anni ’60 del secolo scorso, la candela come elemento di design.
SINCE 1902
CERERIA BIANCHI has worked in the candle sector for over a hundred years; today it is a leading Italian company in the production of wax candles for liturgical and non-liturgical use, able to offer all of its experience to meet the different needs of customers with reliable, quality products.
Cereria Bianchi was established in a small workshop in the heart of Varese, where the production of candles was entirely manual and carried out through “IMMERSION” (frames were prepared with wicks of the requested length and the ends were tied to a heavy pole. The frames were repeatedly immersed in tanks of hot wax kept warm by a wood fire, and their diameter increased with each immersion; once the desired diameter was reached, they were passed through a heated die plate to make the candles perfectly cylindrical and smooth). Cereria Bianchi’s high-quality creations brought it to be awarded the title of “VATICAN CHANDLER” in 1908 as a pontifical supplier, an important recognition that gives its name a very specific level of absolute trust. Wanting to expand to meet the continuous requests of customers, in 1970 the company moved to Daverio to a larger area which was more suited to the new machinery. Today the company is led by its fourth generation and works to offer products of ever-higher quality, keeping its artisan charm alive with its manual skills and experience maintaining lively, friendly and direct relationships with its customers. The raw material paraffin and the wicks used to produce our candles are of the highest quality, making our products unique and compliant with all the applicable REACH laws as well as combating pollution.
