Why FieldDay?

Our small team have been proudly making and dispatching our scented candles and collections from our fragrant factory in the heart of the countryside since 2002.

Whilst we’re older and hopefully wiser, we’re more passionate than ever about our great Irish outdoors. We’re proud to be a sustainable small business, ensuring all our collections are vegan and plastic free. We re-purpose all our waste wax and all our packaging is designed to be re-purposed or recycled; it’s a small step but we believe nothing should go to waste.

Come join a creative business that’s growing in all the right places!
