Foncepi is a premier Brazilian manufacturer and exporter of carnauba wax, providing high-quality vegetable-based raw materials to industrial sectors worldwide since 1922. We specialize in supplying reliable, consistent grades of Copernicia prunifera wax specifically engineered to meet the stringent formulation requirements of modeling wax blend manufacturers.
Our production facilities in Piripiri, Piauí, and Coaçu, Ceará, enable us to maintain rigorous standards across our portfolio. Whether your formulation requires specific melting points or precise color profiles to achieve the desired texture and stability in your blends, we invite you to contact us to discuss the technical specifications that will optimize your production process.
Selecting Carnauba Wax for Modeling Formulations
Carnauba wax is a critical component in high-performance modeling blends, favored for its high melting point and structural integrity. For manufacturers, the selection of the correct grade is essential to ensure that the finished modeling wax maintains its shape, provides the necessary hardness, and meets the tactile expectations of the end-user.
We offer Types 1, 3, and 4 to accommodate various formulation needs. Each type possesses distinct physical properties, including color intensity and chemical indices, which can significantly influence the final characteristics of your modeling blend. By evaluating the specific chemical properties of our wax, such as the acid value and saponification index, you can better align our raw material with your internal quality standards.
Physical Forms and Integration in Production
The physical presentation of the carnauba wax is a key consideration for efficient incorporation into your manufacturing process. Foncepi provides the material in flakes, powder, and lumps, each suited to different industrial blending methods and equipment capabilities. Selecting the optimal form helps streamline your workflow and ensures consistent homogenization.
For manufacturers requiring specific particle distributions, we offer powder options with 95% passage in either 100 mesh or 200 mesh. Precise selection between these granulometries allows for better dispersion and integration in your heating and mixing cycles. Please inform our commercial team of your specific processing requirements so we can align the physical form with your production systems.
Technical Specifications and Quality Assessment
Consistency is the cornerstone of successful modeling wax manufacturing. Our products are processed to meet established industrial benchmarks, including a melting point range of 80–86 °C, moisture content capped at 1.00%, and specific acid and saponification values. These parameters are fundamental for maintaining the predictability of your formulations across production batches.
We understand that technical documentation is a prerequisite for the qualification of raw materials. Upon request, we provide the relevant Technical Data Sheets (TDS) and Certificates of Analysis (COA) to support your internal validation processes. We encourage our partners to review these documents to confirm that the selected grade meets your regulatory and performance criteria.
Logistics and Industrial Supply Conditions
Foncepi supports the operational scale of industrial partners through structured supply and export capabilities. We provide our carnauba wax in standardized packaging, including 25 kg bags and 500 kg big bags, designed to ensure product integrity during transport and storage. These options are tailored to fit different inventory management and handling requirements.
Our team is dedicated to facilitating the commercial process from initial inquiry to final export. We define minimum order quantities and logistics arrangements during the quotation phase, ensuring the solution is scaled to your business needs.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the primary differences between the types of carnauba wax offered for modeling blends?
The main differences lie in their color Gardner ratings and purity profile. Type 1 is typically lighter in color compared to Type 3 or Type 4. Choosing the right type depends on whether your modeling blend requires a specific aesthetic appearance or a particular level of refinement for your formulation.
Can Foncepi provide technical documentation like TDS and COA for my approval process?
Yes. We support our industrial partners by providing Technical Data Sheets (TDS) and Certificates of Analysis (COA) for our products. Please contact our commercial department with your specific grade request to receive the documentation required for your internal validation and quality assurance procedures.
How should I choose between 100 mesh and 200 mesh powder for my manufacturing?
The choice depends on your specific mixing process and the required dispersion rate in your blend. A 100 mesh or 200 mesh selection should be based on your equipment’s ability to process the particle size. We provide both options to accommodate different industrial mixing protocols and manufacturing requirements.
What packaging options are available for shipping carnauba wax?
We provide standardized packaging to meet industrial logistical needs, including 25 kg bags and 500 kg big bags. We determine the most appropriate packaging configuration based on your handling infrastructure and total order volume during the quoting process to ensure safety and efficiency during transit.
How do I request a formal quote for my company’s modeling wax production?
