Paraffin Wax

Paraffin is the most popular wax used to manufacture candles in the world. It is a cheaper option for candle making and holds fragrance and colour well. Our fully refined paraffin wax has a Melt point 60-62ºC. Paraffin candles can be greatly improved by the addition of 2-10% palm stearic acid for hardness &/or 1-2% vybar substitute to increase its holding capacity for fragrance oils and bring out color and brightness and help eliminate bubbles and mottling. Both colour tabs and liquid candle colours are suitable for use with paraffin wax. As paraffin wax tends to shrink as it cools keeping some of your prepared wax aside for a top up so there are no issues with colour matching.

** Helpful tip from Jill for breaking up 5kg blocks:

I placed the plastic bag of wax inside a pillow case and then dropped it from a height onto a concrete path...it shattered easily, so I did it a few more times and now I have much more manageable chunks of paraffin wax to work with.
