Petrolatum Wax

We offer IGI Wax’s industrial and pharmaceutical grades of petrolatum.  Petrolatum waxes are natural, mineral waxes from petroleum that are microcrystalline in nature and a semi-solid at room temperature. 

The waxes themselves are non-reactive, non-toxic, biodegradable and compostable products with many applications where barriers are required to liquids and gases e.g. lotions, candles and rust preventatives.

The grades vary only in consistency and colour.

IGI Petrolatum waxes are detailed in the table below, other grades are available.
