What does HTP mean?
HTP stands for High-Tensile Paper, referring to the paper threads woven into the cotton braid for added strength and stability.
CD Wicks vs. HTP Wicks
CD (Stabilo) wicks are round-braided and tend to burn hotter, making them better for certain waxes and wider candle diameters. HTP wicks have a flatter braid with paper filaments, producing a steadier flame and less mushrooming, ideal for a wide range of candle applications.
