Rice Bran Wax

Rice Bran Wax — the perfect alternative to Carnauba Wax

Product Introduction

Rice Bran Wax is a natural vegetable wax extracted from the refining process of rice bran oil. With excellent hardness, high melting point, and superior oil-binding properties, it is widely used in candles, cosmetics, coatings, and industrial applications.


Product Features

✔ High Melting Point & Strong Hardness

Rice bran wax has a melting point range of 72–82°C, giving finished products enhanced structural strength and heat resistance.

✔ Excellent Oil-Binding Capacity

Its unique crystalline structure allows it to lock and stabilize oils, prevent sweating, and improve the overall consistency of formulations.

✔ Smooth Texture & Gloss Enhancement

Acts as a natural polishing and smoothing agent, improving surface shine in candles and cosmetics.

✔ 100% Plant-Based & Biodegradable

Derived entirely from rice bran, it is renewable, environmentally friendly, and compliant with global sustainability requirements.
