Vegetable waxes,
a new horizon
In a world increasingly striving towards the ideals of sustainability and viability, vegetable waxes are gaining ground thanks to their outstanding properties and versatility in various applications, as they come from renewable sources. In addition to carnauba wax and candelilla —known for their shine, hardness, and resistance— we also offer three types of vegetable waxes noted for their softness and flexibility, soy wax, rapeseed wax, and coconut.
Rapeseed wax is obtained from processing rapeseed oil, one of the most produced vegetable oils in the world. Rapeseed wax is very popular in the candle industry, as it holds fragrances and colorants well, and its combustion is slower than that of paraffin candles.
Rapeseed wax has a silky texture and is ideal for making container candles. It can be combined with other vegetable waxes to improve and adapt its properties according to the needs of each product.
In addition to pure rapeseed wax, free from pesticides, herbicides, and non-GMO, we offer rapeseed wax combined with coconut, which provides a smooth and creamy finish.
Soy wax, on the other hand, is also one of the new favorites in candle production. Whether used alone or combined with other vegetable waxes or paraffins, it is primarily used for making container candles. Its high melting point means the wax takes longer to melt, resulting in an increased burn time.
Soy wax also has moisturizing and emollient properties, which is why some massage therapists use it for massages. Our soy wax, just like our rapeseed wax, is free from pesticides, herbicides, and non-GMO, making it perfect for this use.
Coconut wax is another excellent option in the world of vegetable waxes, known for its smooth and creamy texture. In candle making, it provides a sleek finish and an even burn. In the cosmetic industry, it is valued for its moisturizing properties and natural origin.
At Ceras Martí, we offer a variety of vegetable waxes to meet different applications and preferences. You can order online and receive the product quickly and safely. Contact us for more information or request a free sample.
The combination of coconut and rapeseed wax offers an innovative solution in the world of vegetable waxes, combining the best of these ingredients to enhance quality and performance in multiple applications. This unique blend has become increasingly popular, especially in the candle, cosmetics, and personal care product industries.
Rapeseed wax stands out for its firm structure and its ability to maintain a stable texture, making it an essential component in products requiring durability. Its low melting point allows for easy handling and effective integration into various formulations.
On the other hand, coconut wax contributes softness and flexibility, as well as excellent fragrance retention.
When combined, these waxes offer a perfect balance of firmness and malleability, ideal for applications that demand precision in their finish and a pleasant texture to the touch. Finally, rapeseed and coconut wax can be perfectly combined with different colorants to create original and appealing products for different market niches.
In the cosmetic sector, this combination is particularly valued for its ability to improve the texture and application of products such as creams, lotions, and balms. Rapeseed wax provides structure and stability, ensuring products maintain their consistency over time, while coconut wax facilitates a smooth and even application on the skin. This blend is also ideal for formulations aimed at sensitive skin due to its hypoallergenic profile and natural origin.
In candle making, the blend of rapeseed and coconut wax provides a clean and even burn. It combines the stability of rapeseed wax with coconut wax’s ability to adhere well to containers and release fragrances consistently.
At Ceras Martí, we offer Naturewax Elite 600, specially developed by Cargill for the production of industrial and artisanal candles.
Rapeseed and coconut wax also reflects a commitment to sustainability that is increasingly sought after by consumers. Both ingredients come from renewable plant sources, reducing reliance on petroleum-derived products and minimizing environmental impact.
