Carnauba Wax Flakes for Polishes, Cosmetics & Wax Blends in Sri Lanka
Carnauba Wax Flakes (Dark Brown) are a hard, high-melting natural wax used to strengthen wax blends, improve gloss, and add durability. Suitable for polishes, cosmetics, leather care, and industrial applications. Available in 50g, 100g, and 250g packs.
Carnauba wax flakes are a natural vegetable wax derived from the leaves of the Copernicia prunifera palm in Brazil. This dark brown T3 grade is known for its hardness, high melting point, and excellent gloss properties. It is widely used in Sri Lanka by candle makers, polish manufacturers, cosmetic formulators, leather workers, and craft makers who need a strong wax that improves durability and finish.
Because carnauba wax is much harder than beeswax or paraffin, it is commonly blended with softer waxes to increase heat resistance, surface hardness, and shine. A small percentage can significantly upgrade the performance of wax-based products.
