Fully Refined Paraffin Wax

 

🕯️ Fully Refined Paraffin Wax – Introduction

Fully Refined Paraffin Wax (FRPW) is a highly purified form of paraffin wax, processed to remove almost all oil content and impurities. It is white, odorless, tasteless, and translucent, making it ideal for premium candle making and cosmetic applications.

This wax is derived from petroleum and undergoes full refining to achieve a purity level of 99% or more, with oil content typically below 0.5%. Due to its high quality, it burns cleanly and offers a smooth, glossy finish.
