Koster Keunen NF Candelilla Wax is a vegetable wax that contains natural hydrocarbons. Candelilla produces excellent gloss and structure and is ideal for use where firm consistency and high melt point are important. This material complies with the NF monograph and is suitable for food, pharmaceutical and nutraceutical applications.

Kester Wax BWR is a natural, vegan alternative for beeswax engineered by Koster Keunen. This proprietary product will produce physical and chemical properties needed to replace beeswax in most formulations. Kester Wax BWR is manufactured at Koster Keunen in the USA.

Koster Keunen knows that formulators need an option other than candelilla wax due to the issues and shortages in that market. We have developed this alternative to mimic the major and minor components of candelilla in cost effective way. Candelilla Wax Alternative can be used in any formula looking to replace candelilla wax. Uses include color cosmetics, hair and skin care. There is compatibility with all types of systems including anhydrous formulas, lip sticks, balms, pomades, emulsions and sunscreens.
