The details

Colored-Tip Matches

The colored tip is the small detail that gets a match photographed instead of just struck. We dip white-birch safety matches in a full range of head colors — deep greens, dusty pinks, teals, matte blacks, creams and nearly anything between — matched against your label, wax or brand references, so the match in the jar agrees with everything else on the shelf. The stem stays natural or takes a coordinating dip, which means even a bowl of loose matches reads as designed.

Color never comes at the cost of function. The tinted heads use the same safety-strike chemistry as our classics: they ignite on the box striker with one firm pull, hold a steady flame down the stick, and meet US consumer safety standards. We burn-test each color run rather than assuming the pigment behaves, because a beautiful match that sputters is a refund waiting to happen — yours will light the way a match should.

Packaging is wide open. Take them in printed slide boxes with your artwork on every face, in kraft-boxed bulk packs ready to decant into your own vessels, or paired with our glass jars and cloches as a finished shelf product. Lengths run from the standard two-inch stem to the eight-inch candle match, so the same brand color can carry across a favor box, a countertop jar and a fireplace set without a mismatch.

Colored-tip matches suit candle and fragrance brands coordinating a shelf, wedding designers matching a palette down to the flame, boutiques building house-brand gifts and venues that want even the match tray on theme. Free artwork comes back within 24 hours, revisions are unlimited, and the minimum is twelve units. Get a quote for colored-tip matches and we’ll match the dip to your swatch first.
