Waxes for the paper manufacture

Currently the waxes used to wax the paper can be refined and hydrogenated paraffins, additive paraffins to brighten the paper and vegetable waxes such as palm wax, soy wax or sunflower wax

They are available in different formats: solid paraffin or vegetable wax (slabs, pearls, powder) and liquid paraffin or vegetable wax.

Hydrogenated refined Paraffins

They are characterized by an oil content of less than 0,5%, a white color and odorless. The process of hydrogenation to saturation allows to reach the food grade. Our paraffins are available in different ranges of melting point:

Proquiwax 54-56

Paraffin with a low melting point

Proquiwax 54-56

It is a low melting point paraffin used by the packaging industry to make waxed food paper.

Proquiwax 56-58

Paraffin with a medium melting point

Proquiwax 56-58

It is the paraffin most demanded by the food packaging industry to make paraffin paper.

Proquiwax 62-64

Paraffin with a high melting point

Proquiwax 62-64

It is a high melting point paraffin used by the packaging industry to make waxed food paper.

Additivated paraffins​

They are characterized by being refined and hydrogenated with food grade. It has different types of polymers to increase its impermeability, resistance and brightness. They are mainly used in the paper industry to make waxed food paper and also in the corrugated board industry.

Proquiwax PB-12

Additivated paraffin with high brightness

Proquiwax PB-12

It is an additivated paraffin with high brightness used for the waxed paper of 2 faces.

Proquiwax PB-24

Additivated paraffin with high brightness

Proquiwax PB-24

It is an additivated paraffin with high brightness that, due to its high viscosity and weight it is well implemented in the waxed paper of 1 face.

Proquiwax L207

Additivated paraffin

Proquiwax L207

It is an additivated paraffin used in the food packaging industry for the manufacture of aluminium paper (paper for butter).

Palm wax ​

Palm wax is produced by partial or complete hydrogenation of palm oil. Palm wax is widely used in waxed paper applications to increase waterproofing and resistance to water and oils.

PALM WAX 55

PALM WAX 55

The PALM WAX 55 is a partially hydrogenated palm wax with a high melting point, around 55 degrees. It is widely used in the manufacture of waxed paper to increase waterproof and resistance.

PALM WAX P

PALM WAX P

The PALM WAX P is a fully hydrogenated palm wax with a very high melting point, around 60 degrees. It is widely used in the manufacture of waxed paper to increase waterproof and resistance.

Sunflower wax​

Sunflower wax is produced by partial or complete hydrogenation of sunflower oil. Sunflower wax is widely used in waxed paper applications to increase waterproofing and resistance to water and oils.

SUNFLOWER WAX 70

SUNFOWER WAX 70

The SUNFLOWER WAX 70 is a fully hydrogenated sunflower wax with a very high melting point, around 70 degrees. It is widely used in the manufacture of waxed paper to increase waterproof and resistance.

Soy wax

Soywax is produced by partial or complete hydrogenation of soy oil. Soy wax is widely used in waxed paper applications to increase waterproofing and resistance to water and oils.

SOY WAX S

SOY WAX S

The SOY WAX S is a fully hydrogenated sunflower wax with a very high melting point, around 60 degrees. It is widely used in the manufacture of waxed paper to increase waterproof and resistance.
