Soy Wax Manufacturers & Suppliers : France
What is Soy Wax?
Soy wax is a natural wax made from soybean oil, which is extracted from soybeans through a careful solvent extraction process. The crude oil goes through several refining steps, including degumming, neutralization, bleaching, and deodorization, to remove impurities and improve quality. Then, cold pressing and filtration isolate the solid wax fraction, which is further refined to achieve the best melting points, creamy color, and smooth texture. The final soy wax meets high industry standards for purity, consistency, and performance across various applications that require an eco-friendly, plant-based wax.
Soy Wax:
Smooth, Versatile, Natural Waxes
In France, soy wax has become the new gold standard for natural waxes because of its renewability, performance, and regulatory compliance. French manufacturers and industries are increasingly choosing soy wax for its clean-burning properties, flexibility in formulations, and support for sustainable production practices. Its smooth melting profile and low melting point make it very versatile, allowing for high-quality results in candles, cosmetics, and specialty coatings. Rising consumer demand in France for clean-label, vegan, and eco-friendly products is driving the growth of soy wax usage.
