Sasol Wax - Candle IndustryYour visions - our challenge
The candle is a product steeped in tradition with a long andcolourful history. It was initially produced by hand, lateralso by mechanized production processes and now by fullyautomated manufacturing. The quality requirements ofcandles are also being constantly upgraded to fulfil thedemands of environmentally aware consumers for highquality products. Flexibility and competence are a must inorder to provide client-oriented product solutions.
As the producer of the main raw material, paraffin wax,Sasol Wax successfully meets these challenges. We developour wide product range of candle paraffin waxes in closeconsultation with our partners in the candle industry, withassociations and consumer groups. The targeted selectionof raw materials and individual control over our modernplants enable us to offer you tailor-made paraffin waxes.Our clients’ needs are foremost in our mind from theresearch and development phase on.
We guarantee the high purity of our products throughcareful processing and purification with the aid of intricateprocedural steps. Our highly refined types of paraffin waxare of hydrogenation quality and are entirely harmless froma toxicological viewpoint. Constant controls guarantee thehighest product quality. Certifications of the business inaccordance with DIN EN ISO 9001/9002 as well asenvironmental certification in accordance with DIN 14001bear testimony to our high standards of quality.
We focus on the future with early system optimizationof the candle’s manufacturing process encompassing theelements material, production technology and know-howcoupled with communication. We aim to continuouslyoptimize systems through targeted collaboration withcandle manufacturers, machine manufacturers andmaterial specialists (e. g. wick, colour, fragrance, lacquer)as timely, professional co-operation ensures costeffec-tiveness. Problem avoidance from the outset rather than subsequent problem solution is our motto. CIP, thecontinuous improvement process, is thus a key factorfor us.
In addition to physical key data, we will provide you withadvice regarding processing conditions and process-specific characteristics. Long-term fundamental analyses,e. g. in the subjects listed below, is the basis for this:
Crystallization behaviour and its consequences
Thermo-technical behaviour
Air solubility in types of paraffin wax
Blends with other raw materials used in the candle industry, such as stearic acid, beeswax and fat Additives and their effects
Factors influencing burning behaviour
Influence of fragrances on the structures of paraffin wax
Systematic analyses, tests regarding burning behaviour,formulation developments, as well as comprehensiveapplication technology-based consultations and trainingat our plant or on your premises are further integralcomponents of our service package.
Specific conditions during candle production requireindividual measures. As well as being specialists with aneye for holistic process flows we consider ourselves asservice providers to candle producers. The processingfocus is on complete system solutions over and above theindividual product.
