Practical guidance on wax selection, formulation performance and industrial applications – written for technical, production and procurement teams.
Micronised wax is a fine wax powder used to modify the surface and mechanical performance of coatings, printing inks and related formulations. When the grade is correctly matched to the system, it can improve
Wax emulsions allow formulators to introduce useful wax properties into water-based or mixed systems without handling the wax as a hot bulk liquid. They are used in coatings, construction products, polishes, mould-release systems, concrete
Microcrystalline wax is selected when a formulation needs more flexibility, tack or oil-binding capacity than a conventional paraffin wax can provide. These properties make it a useful blend component in packaging, polishes, adhesives, coatings
Wax products are relied upon across a wide range of industries, including packaging, coatings, adhesives, and industrial applications. While selecting the right wax formulation is essential, many people overlook another critical factor: the environment
When it comes to wax manufacturing, customers expect the same performance, texture, colour, and finish every time they place an order. But behind the scenes, in order to fulfil this expectation, manufacturers have to
In today’s rapidly evolving industries, innovation is often associated with cutting-edge technology, automation, and digital transformation. Yet behind every truly effective solution lies something far more valuable: experience. The organisations that consistently deliver meaningful
Wax is often a small component in a product, but it can have a significant impact on performance, production efficiency and product quality. From packaging and coatings to industrial applications, the right wax choice
Bringing a product from a successful pilot run to full production is one of the most pivotal stages any manufacturing or formulation business faces. It’s where promise transforms into performance, but also where hidden
Wax is often treated as a background ingredient – until something goes wrong. Whether it’s a coating that cracks, an adhesive that won’t bond, or packaging that fails under moisture, wax performance issues can
When you work with Cerax, you discover that our commitment goes far beyond waxes. We also care about empowerment – not just of our team, but our clients and every project we undertake too.
