Products for Cosmetics
Beeswax
Beeswax (CAS 8012-89-3 yellow, 8006-40-4 white; INCI Cera Flava and Cera Alba) is secreted by worker honeybees to build comb. It melts at 61 to 65 degrees Celsius and is the reference natural wax for candles, cosmetics and polishes.
Carnauba Wax
Carnauba wax (CAS 8015-86-9, INCI Copernicia Cerifera Wax) is harvested from the leaves of the Brazilian carnauba palm. Melting at 82 to 86 degrees Celsius, it is the hardest natural wax in commercial use and gives the highest gloss.
Castor Oil
Castor oil (CAS 8001-79-4, INCI Ricinus Communis Seed Oil) is the raw material from which castor wax is made, and a cosmetic ingredient in its own right. Its ricinoleic acid content gives it unusual viscosity, polarity and gloss.
Hydrogenated Castor Oil (Castor Wax)
Hydrogenated castor oil (CAS 8001-79-4, INCI Hydrogenated Castor Oil), known as castor wax, melts at 85 to 88 degrees Celsius, the highest of the common vegetable waxes. Hard, brittle and water-insoluble, it structures and thickens at low addition.
Coconut Oil
Coconut Oil, derived from mature coconut kernels (Cocos nucifera), is a natural, versatile oil rich in medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), lauric acid, and antioxidants. Widely used for cooking, cosmetics, hair care, pharmaceuticals, and industrial applications like soap making.
Olive Oil
Olive oil (CAS 8001-25-0, INCI Olea Europaea Fruit Oil) is pressed from the fruit of Olea europaea. In soap and cosmetic manufacture its high oleic content gives a mild, conditioning bar and a rich, slow-spreading emollient film.
Glycerine
Glycerine (CAS 56-81-5, INCI Glycerin) is propane-1,2,3-triol, the sweet, syrupy co-product of soap making and fat splitting. Supplied crude at around 80 percent or refined to 99.5 percent, it is the most used humectant in personal care.
Soy Wax
Soy wax (CAS 8016-70-4, INCI Hydrogenated Soybean Oil) is soybean oil hardened by hydrogenation. Supplied as blocks, flakes or pellets with melting points from 42 to 58 degrees Celsius, it is the default natural wax for container candles.
Palm Wax
Palm wax (CAS 8021-56-5, INCI Hydrogenated Palm Oil) is hydrogenated palm oil, supplied in melting bands from 42 to 60 degrees Celsius. It is the only common vegetable wax that forms a decorative crystalline pattern as it sets.
Rapeseed Wax
Rapeseed wax is hydrogenated rapeseed oil, supplied as blocks melting at 42 to 52 degrees Celsius or pellets at 52 to 60. European-grown and vegan, it has become the preferred soy alternative for candle makers sourcing within Europe.
Microcrystalline Wax
Microcrystalline wax (CAS 63231-60-7) is petroleum wax made of branched and cyclic hydrocarbons rather than straight chains. The irregular molecules cannot pack neatly, so it forms tiny crystals and is flexible and tacky where paraffin is brittle.
Fully Refined Paraffin Wax (50-68°C)
Fully refined paraffin wax (CAS 8002-74-2) is petroleum wax hydrotreated to below 0.5 percent oil content. Supplied in melting grades from 50 to 68 degrees Celsius, it is odourless, white and approved for food contact.
Sunflower Oil
Sunflower Oil, derived from sunflower seeds (Helianthus annuus), is a pure, versatile vegetable oil rich in heart-friendly linoleic and oleic acids plus antioxidant vitamin E. Trusted worldwide for frying, baking, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and biodiesel applications.
Rapeseed Oil
Rapeseed Oil, derived from rapeseed seeds (Scientific name: Brassica napus), is a light, neutral vegetable oil extracted by pressing and refining. Modern “canola” varieties were developed to reduce erucic acid and glucosinolates, making it safe and nutritious.
