Foncepi provides high-quality vegetable-based Carnauba wax for cleaning product manufacturers worldwide. Operating since 1922 and part of the RF Group, we specialize in the extraction and processing of Copernicia prunifera, delivering a consistent raw material suitable for diverse industrial applications, including high-performance polishing and maintenance formulations.
Selecting the right grade and physical form of Carnauba wax is essential to achieving the desired protective properties and finish in your cleaning formulations. Whether your process requires specific melting points or structural consistency, our team is ready to assist you in aligning our available types with your technical requirements. Contact us today with your formulation goals and estimated volume to receive a formal quotation.
Technical Specifications for Polishing and Maintenance Formulations
Carnauba wax is recognized for its high melting point, typically ranging between 80–86 °C, which provides significant thermal stability and hardness to industrial coatings and surface protection products. For cleaning and polishing manufacturers, the purity of the wax is critical to ensuring consistent performance, such as film formation, gloss retention, and moisture resistance in the final product.
We supply Type 1, Type 3, and Type 4 waxes, each characterized by distinct color profiles and levels of refinement. For instance, our Type 1 wax offers a lower Gardner color range of 3,50–5,50, while Type 3 presents a Gardner range of 8,10–10,50. Understanding these parameters helps in selecting the appropriate raw material for your specific cleaner or polish application.
Choosing the Right Physical Form and Granulometry
The incorporation of Carnauba wax into industrial blends depends heavily on the physical presentation of the raw material. We offer our wax in flakes, powder, and lumps to suit various manufacturing processes, from high-temperature melting to mechanical dispersion. Selecting the correct form can streamline your production cycle and improve the efficiency of your formulation development.
For manufacturers requiring powdered wax, we provide options based on sieve retention, such as 95% passage in 100 mesh or 200 mesh. These specifications allow for precise control during the mixing phase, ensuring the wax integrates effectively into your chemical systems. Please specify your preferred form and desired particle size when requesting your technical documentation.
Industrial Packaging and Logistics for Global Supply
Handling raw materials efficiently is a priority for production facilities, which is why we provide flexible packaging solutions to meet your operational needs. Our Carnauba wax is available in 25 kg bags and 500 kg big bags, designed to maintain product integrity during transport from our Brazilian facilities in Piauí and Ceará to your site.
While we are an established exporter, the specific logistics for your order, including container configuration and delivery conditions, will be established during the commercial negotiation process. We recommend that your procurement team clarifies your handling requirements and unloading capabilities so we can provide a proposal that fits your supply chain infrastructure.
Qualification and Documentation for Formulation Safety
As a manufacturer of cleaning and polishing products, you may require specific technical documentation to qualify our raw material within your internal quality systems. We provide access to TDS, SDS, and batch-specific data to help your team perform the necessary validation steps before integrating our wax into your proprietary formulas.
Requesting these documents is the initial step toward building a successful commercial partnership with Foncepi. We invite your regulatory and quality departments to review our technical specifications, ensuring that our wax meets the standards required for your specific industrial applications. Submit your inquiry to our commercial team to initiate the qualification process.
Conclusion
Foncepi remains dedicated to the consistent supply of Brazilian Carnauba wax, supporting manufacturers in the cleaning, polishing, and industrial sectors. By focusing on technical specification and reliable processing, we assist your production team in maintaining the high standards expected in your formulations.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which type of Carnauba wax is most suitable for industrial polish formulations?
The choice between Type 1, Type 3, or Type 4 depends on your specific performance requirements and desired final color. Type 1 is often preferred for applications where lighter color and high purity are necessary, while other types may be selected based on specific cost-to-performance ratios for your cleaning formulations.
Can you provide 100 mesh or 200 mesh powder for my manufacturing process?
Yes, we offer Carnauba wax powder with 95% passage in either 100 mesh or 200 mesh. Please specify your required granulometry during the quotation request so we can ensure the material provided meets the integration needs of your specific chemical blending process.
What documents can Foncepi provide for the validation of the raw material?
We provide the Technical Data Sheet (TDS), Safety Data Sheet (SDS), and relevant batch information upon request. These documents are essential for your quality and regulatory departments to evaluate the compliance and physical characteristics of our wax within your specific cleaning product formulations.
What are the standard packaging options for international exports?
We typically supply our wax in 25 kg bags or 500 kg big bags. The most appropriate packaging for your order will be determined during the commercial discussion, considering your handling infrastructure and total volume requirements for each shipment.
