paraffin wax supplier

paraffin

Paraffin is a white, odorless wax produced from saturated hydrocarbons. Due to its user-friendly properties, wax is widely used in different industries. Everyone uses wax in some way.

The top products your company can produce using paraffin wax are crayons, coatings, lubricants, polymers, adhesives, waterproofing agents, additives, leather and cosmetics. However, paraffin wax is mainly used in the candle industry and is also known as candle wax in the market since it can retain a large amount of fragrance and color. It also has different melting points, making it suitable for making many different types of candles, from containers to pillars.

Aoding Group has been producing paraffin wax since 2013. As a BIS certified company that has been producing paraffin wax for 4 decades, you can rely on our durability and quality. The group offers refined and semi-refined waxes made from durable crude wax sourced from imported crude oil stocks.

Microcrystalline Wax (MCW)

Microcrystalline wax is produced by deoiling petroleum, a result of a process commonly known as petroleum refining. Since this wax contains higher amounts of isoparaffins and naphthenes, it is quite flexible to use.

Microcrystalline wax is the best choice for the production of cosmetics, including creams and lotions, mascara, lipstick, powder, eyeliner, etc. In the sports industry, it is used on ice hockey sticks as a friction tape application. 

The qualities of microcrystalline wax also make it a suitable choice for hot melt adhesives for book binding, box sealing, carton sealing and container labeling needs. MCW is a very critical input in the manufacturing of rubber products such as tires, belts, blankets, etc.

vegetable wax

Vegetable waxes are the best alternative to paraffin and other mineral hydrocarbon waxes due to their renewable, sustainable and cost-effective properties. Vegetable waxes can be the perfect source for your cosmetic, pharmaceutical, candle, coating, polymer or polishing industry needs.

Aoding Group produces different types of refined and semi-refined vegetable waxes, including sunflower wax, rice bran wax, castor wax, sugar cane wax, etc. In addition to vegetable waxes, we also have expertise in producing pure ozokerite and candelilla waxes designed for specific applications.
