Foncepi is a dedicated Brazilian manufacturer and exporter of high-quality carnauba wax, serving global industrial sectors since 1922. As part of the RF Group, with operations in Piripiri, Piauí, and Coaçu, Ceará, we provide the essential raw material that technical sealing compound manufacturers rely on to meet their specific performance requirements.
Selecting the appropriate grade and physical form of carnauba wax is critical for the stability and functionality of high-performance sealing formulations. We invite you to explore our portfolio of Types 1, 3, and 4 to determine which specification best aligns with your chemical processing needs. Contact our commercial team today to discuss your technical requirements and requested supply volume.
Selecting Carnauba Wax Grades for Sealing Applications
Technical sealing compounds often require specific physical and chemical properties, such as acid values and melting points, to ensure performance under varying conditions. Foncepi offers different grades of carnauba wax to support manufacturers in achieving the desired consistency and structural integrity in their specialized formulations.
Our technical team can assist you in evaluating how the melting point range of 80–86 °C and varying acidity indices contribute to your specific manufacturing process. We recommend providing your technical specifications and application requirements so we can guide you toward the most suitable grade for your sealing compound development.
Physical Forms and Material Integration
We provide carnauba wax in flakes, powder, and lumps to facilitate integration into a wide variety of industrial production environments. For manufacturers requiring specific particle distribution for consistent dispersion, our powder form is available with options for 95% passage in either 100 mesh or 200 mesh, depending on your processing equipment.
The physical format you choose directly impacts how the wax melts and blends with other additives in your sealing compounds. Whether your production facility relies on automated dry blending or high-shear mixing, we can provide the configuration that aligns with your operational setup. Please specify your preferred form when requesting a project quote.
Industrial Packaging and Handling
Efficiency in the manufacturing chain starts with proper material handling and storage. Foncepi supplies carnauba wax in 25 kg bags and 500 kg big bags, designed to meet the logistics and consumption needs of industrial-scale operations. Choosing the right packaging helps maintain material integrity and supports efficient handling upon delivery to your facility.
Our team is prepared to discuss the best packaging options based on your annual consumption and storage capacity. We ensure that the product is prepared to meet the demands of international export, maintaining high standards of care from our production units in Brazil to your location. Inform us of your preferred packaging unit to receive an accurate quote.
Initiating the Qualification and Procurement Process
Establishing a reliable supply chain for raw materials begins with proper documentation and clear communication of technical needs. We encourage manufacturers to request the Technical Data Sheets (TDS) and Certificates of Analysis (COA) for the grades under consideration to ensure they align with your internal quality and regulatory protocols.
Our commercial department facilitates the procurement process by reviewing your application details and determining the availability of requested specifications. By providing information on your specific sealing application and estimated volume needs early in the process, you enable us to provide a more targeted and effective response to your inquiry.
Conclusion
Foncepi remains committed to providing the essential carnauba wax raw materials required by manufacturers of technical sealing compounds. Our long-standing experience in the Brazilian market allows us to support your industrial goals with consistency and professionalism.

Frequently Asked Questions
How can I determine if Foncepi’s carnauba wax is suitable for my specific sealing compound formula?
The best approach is to review our Technical Data Sheets (TDS) and compare our specifications, such as melting point range and acidity indices, against your formulation requirements. We recommend that you contact our team with your technical parameters so we can help assess compatibility with your production process.
What is the difference between the 100 mesh and 200 mesh powder options you offer?
The mesh size refers to the particle size distribution, with 95% of the material passing through the specified screen. 100 mesh and 200 mesh offer different levels of fineness. The choice depends on your specific dissolution or dispersion requirements during the formulation of your sealing compounds.
Does Foncepi provide documentation to assist in my quality and regulatory approval process?
Yes, we provide standard documentation, including Technical Data Sheets (TDS) and Certificates of Analysis (COA) for our current lots. Please contact our commercial team to request the documentation necessary for your specific internal quality, regulatory, or compliance evaluation process.
What information should I provide to receive a formal price quote?
To provide an accurate quote, please include the specific grade (Type 1, 3, or 4), the required physical form (flakes, powder, or lumps), the particle size if requesting powder, the estimated purchase volume, and the final destination country. This helps us manage your request efficiently.
Can you ship in quantities smaller than the standard bag sizes?
Our standard supply options are 25 kg bags and 500 kg big bags. We do not provide smaller retail-sized packaging. For specific volume inquiries or concerns regarding minimum order quantities for your industrial project, please reach out to our commercial department to discuss your requirements.
