Highly effective treatment – Woodware can last up to 20 years, even unpainted.
Process:
Paraffin wax is heated to 130°C – 180°C.
Wood is immersed for about 10 minutes to ensure deep penetration.
As it cools, molten wax fills the voids, preventing moisture absorption.
Optional: Paint can be applied while hot for enhanced durability.
Benefits:
Prevents mold and fungal decay by eliminating moisture.
Extends wood lifespan, reducing maintenance costs.
Safe for food contact, making it ideal for beekeeping.
Paraffin wax is widely used for candle making, offering a clean and consistent burn.
Mixing options: Often combined with microcrystalline wax or tree rosin (pine gum) to improve texture and burn quality.
Process:
Melt the wax in a controlled-temperature vat.
Add dyes, scents, or beeswax if desired.
Pour into molds or candle containers with a wick in place.
Allow to cool and set before trimming the wick and using.
Benefits of Paraffin Candles:
Long-lasting & cost-effective.
Strong scent throw when fragrance is added.
Smooth finish and easy to color.
Wood preservation requires specialized equipment – typically used by commercial beekeepers.
For hobbyists:
Check if a local beekeeping club has a dipping vat.
Collaborate with a commercial beekeeper to share resources.
Candle making is easier for home use, requiring only a wax melter, molds, and wicks.

I needed some paraffin wax for making water resistant oilskin cloth. This wax was the least expensive of what was readily available and I figured that it would have to be reasonably safe to use because it is intended to be used in beehives. My paraffin, beeswax and mineral oil mix appears to have worked well in my initial waterproofing experiments. I got prompt service and I have no regrets.
Quality product. Prompt response and dispatch. Very satisfied customer
Great price fast delivery and no issues with the product whatsoever, highly recommend
quck and easy to buy super fast on shipping
The wax seems clean and pure, it dried perfectly and left no marks on the wood after being mixed with shellite to make a paste. I will try it on my bike chain next week and see how it goes.
I actually have another use I wish to try, so will be very excited to see results.
