Stamford London Incense Sticks
Hand-dipped | Hand-rolled
At the heart of the traditional Indian incense stick (or agarbatti) is the bamboo reed. Fast-growing, self-regenerating, renewable and highly sustainable, bamboo is well suited to today’s increasingly eco-conscious consumers. Stamford London incense sticks are made from natural ingredients based on this central bamboo core, free of artificial colours. They burn cleanly, evenly and gently – steadily releasing soft, aromatic perfume for around half an hour. They are classed as direct-burning, as they don’t require a separate heat source.

Gift & Variety Sets
Stamford London’s Fair Trade dipped incense sticks are hand-made in India. A bamboo reed is dipped into a natural fragrance oil or essential oil to build up the mixture in layers, then left to dry. The range includes timeless classics such as sandalwood and patchouli, alongside more unusual custom-blends and unique fragrances specifically created for the international market, including Exotic, Mystical and Mythical. As well as individual packs, we also produce beautifully boxed gift and variety sets.
Our dipped sticks are usually supplied in hex (hexagonal) packs made from 100% recyclable paper. Hex is one of the most popular styles of incense packaging on the market, providing a protective and space-efficient method of dispatching delicate sticks, as well as visual appeal and instant consumer recognition. Most of our hex sticks are packed in a dual-display unit, which can be positioned upright or horizontally, depending on the shelf space available.

The Stamford London Difference
Stamford London masala incense sticks are a Fair Trade product, hand-made in Karnataka by skilled craftspeople in the centuries-old southern Indian style. A thick dough-like paste (“masala”) is created from purely natural extracts – resins, aromatic wood powders, spices, herbs, fine quality oils and honey – and rolled by hand onto the bamboo sticks. This creates a layered coating of incense that produces rich and complex scents, creating the ideal environment for meditation, yoga, prayers and relaxation.
Our range includes masala sticks specifically blended for aromatherapy, alongside plant-based florals and vegan collections, plus attractively boxed variety sets of six fragrances on a theme. Our masala sticks are usually packaged in slim rectangular boxes made from 100% recyclable paper.
