Carnuba Wax

Carnauba Wax, often called the “Queen of Waxes,” is a natural, plant-based wax derived from the leaves of the Brazilian Copernicia prunifera palm. It’s widely used in cosmetics, skincare formulations, polishes, and food products due to its glossy finish, high melting point, and non-toxic nature. Our wax is refined, pure, and suitable for both DIY and professional use.
