The Rice Bran oil that we supply has been winterised for best results. This pure refined Rice Bran Wax is light yellow in color and of a distinct brittle hardness. It has a melting point of close to 80°C and is often compared to Carnauba wax as an alternative coating agent. Rice Bran Wax has an outstanding oil binding property compared to all other waxes.
