Description

Candelilla Wax N.F. is a pale-yellow vegetable wax in granular form, extracted from the leaves of the candelilla shrub, grown in semi-arid climates. Despite being a hard brittle wax (comparatively speaking, harder than beeswax), candelilla is a softer alternative to carnauba wax. The N.F. notation refers to National Formulary, meaning the material meets the specifications in the NF monograph. This vegan wax option is procured for a wide variety of formulations in personal-care, cosmetic, food manufacturing, and industrial applications. It is known for its glossy finish on goods, ability to thicken and harden formulations, improve the end consistency of a product, and act as a binding agent. Vegan alternatives are preferred by many as brands take advantage of the growing trend among consumers to choose plant-based products over animal derived. Bulk candelilla wax has a melting point of 68-73°C.

Wax FAQs

What size are your wax granules?
Specialty waxes in pastille form, such as our beeswax granules, can vary in size and shape due to the production process. A pastillator machine administers droplets of melted wax at high speeds onto a belt, quickly solidifying the droplets into pastilles via rapid cooling. This results in wax granules varying in diameter with a semi-hemispherical shape. Wax pastilles are commonly purchased for their ease of use compared to handling a solid wax block with the intention of further processing the granules into a formulation with other ingredients. Smaller droplets are periodically created in addition to pastilles forming irregular clumps. Variation in the size and shape of a wax granule is to be expected and a normal result of the production process.
