Foncepi, a prominent Brazilian manufacturer and exporter of carnauba wax, serves the cosmetic industry by supplying high-purity vegetable wax essential for high-performance pencil formulations. With operations established since 1922 and facilities in Piripiri and Coaçu, we support global manufacturers in sourcing consistent raw materials that meet the demanding technical standards of the beauty sector.
The successful production of eyeliner pencils relies on the precise balance of hardness, melting point, and stability provided by our carnauba wax. We invite manufacturers to evaluate our available grades and technical specifications to ensure alignment with your specific formulation needs. Please contact our commercial team to discuss the technical requirements of your project and request a quote for your production requirements.
Technical Requirements for Cosmetic Formulations
Eyeliner pencils require a raw material that offers excellent film-forming properties and sufficient hardness to ensure clean, precise application. Our carnauba wax acts as a key structural agent, providing the necessary heat resistance and stability required to maintain pencil integrity during distribution and daily use.
When selecting your grade, consider that our portfolio includes different types and physical formats designed to facilitate incorporation into your unique manufacturing processes. We provide data on melting range, acid value, and saponification value to assist your R&D and quality departments in validating our raw material for your specific eyeliner pencil base.
Specifying Powder Mesh for Efficient Dispersion
The physical form of the wax is critical for manufacturers who need to ensure uniform dispersion and consistent texture in their final products. We supply carnauba wax in powder form, with standard options featuring 95% passage through either 100 mesh or 200 mesh screens, allowing you to choose the granularity that best fits your mixing and grinding equipment.
Selecting the correct mesh size is essential to avoid processing challenges and to guarantee the stability of your pigment-wax matrix. We encourage technical teams to review their specific dispersion parameters and request the corresponding mesh specification that ensures an optimized incorporation phase within your manufacturing workflow.
Portfolio and Selection of Wax Grades
Foncepi offers Type 1, Type 3, and Type 4 carnauba wax, each presenting distinct visual and chemical characteristics that may influence the formulation of your eyeliner. Type 1 is often chosen for applications where a lighter, more refined color is required, while Type 3 provides a robust alternative for various industrial and cosmetic formulations.
While the color Gardner parameters offer a reference point for your visual evaluation, the suitability of each grade should be confirmed through internal testing within your proprietary formulation. We provide detailed technical documentation and lot-specific data to help your quality team determine which of our available types aligns with your product’s aesthetic and performance targets.
Logistics and Supply for Global Manufacturing
We manage the export of our carnauba wax to reach cosmetic manufacturers across key global markets, ensuring that our products are packaged securely for international transport. Whether your operation requires 25 kg bags or 500 kg big bags, our supply chain is structured to handle industrial volumes while maintaining the integrity of the wax throughout the shipping process.
To initiate a supply partnership, it is important to clarify your expected purchase volumes and the packaging format that best suits your factory's receiving capabilities. Discussing these logistics alongside your technical specifications during the quoting phase will ensure a more accurate proposal tailored to your operational scale and production timeline.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the differences between Type 1 and Type 3 carnauba wax for cosmetics?
The primary difference lies in their visual characteristics and refined state. Type 1 is generally lighter in color, whereas Type 3 has a different Gardner range. Both types offer the essential structural properties required for cosmetics, but the choice depends on your specific formulation goals and the desired aesthetic outcome.
How does the powder mesh size affect my pencil formulation process?
The mesh size determines the particle size distribution, which is critical for consistent dispersion within the wax-oil-pigment matrix of an eyeliner. Choosing between 100 mesh or 200 mesh ensures that the wax integrates effectively during your specific mixing or milling stage, preventing texture inconsistencies in the final pencil.
Does Foncepi provide documentation to help with our regulatory quality audit?
Yes, we provide standard technical documentation, including TDS and SDS, to assist your quality and regulatory teams in their evaluation. We recommend requesting the specific documentation required for your regional compliance and internal homologation processes during the initial inquiry stage to ensure your requirements are addressed.
What information should we include when requesting a quote for eyeliner production?
To receive an accurate quote, please provide the desired wax grade, the required powder mesh, your estimated purchase volume, and your preferred packaging (25 kg bags or 500 kg big bags). Including your destination country will also help us provide the most relevant commercial information.
Can we request a specific lot analysis before placing a bulk order?
Yes, upon initiating a commercial inquiry, you can discuss the availability of lot-specific data. We understand the importance of consistency in cosmetic manufacturing and can provide the necessary technical information for your team to evaluate the specifications of the specific batch available for your requested delivery.
