About this product

Paraffin wax is the main wax used in corrugated packaging and the main application is for food packaging, plant packaging and furniture packaging. Corrugated boxes protected with waxes are three times stronger than non-wax coated corrugated boxes. Corrugated waxes offer effective moisture barrier to protect the corrugated box or the product inside, improved stacking and dry strength and improved appearance.
