Productes Químics Naturals S.L. has travelled to China to learn first-hand about the traditional method of bleaching beeswax.
It is a manual process in which lumps of yellow beeswax are placed in the sun and moved daily for a period of fifteen days. After this time, the wax is completely bleached and is ready for use.
Beeswax bleached by this traditional method is highly valued in China’s domestic market for its medical and pharmaceutical benefits.
