Rice Bran Wax Manufacturers & Suppliers : The Netherlands
What Is Rice Bran Wax?
Rice bran is the nutrient-rich outer layer of the rice grain that is separated during milling. From this layer, rice bran oil is first extracted using a careful solvent-based process. The crude oil then undergoes multiple refining stages to remove free fatty acids, color bodies, and odorous compounds. During this refining, a natural by-product : rice bran wax emerges. This wax is further purified through advanced filtration and bleaching techniques to yield a premium, pale-colored wax. The result is a plant-based material with exceptional consistency, hardness, and melting characteristics that meet the most demanding global specifications.
Rice Bran Wax:
The Gold Standard in Waxes
Across the Netherlands, industries looking for sustainable and high-performance ingredients are turning to rice bran wax. Its unique mix of hardness, gloss, and high melting point makes it a great alternative to traditional petroleum-based waxes. Dutch manufacturers value its stable supply chain and its origin from a renewable agricultural source. From large industrial users to small luxury goods producers, the demand for rice bran wax keeps growing because it offers reliability, plant-based benefits, and a naturally elegant finish that enhances final products.
