Wax is a distinct category of organic compounds that is hydrophobic, and pliable solids close to ambient temperatures. Wax is made up of various forms such as vegetable based, animal based, and synthetic based. Wax are soluble in nonpolar & organic solvents, but are insoluble in water. The wax market has become highly price volatile in recent years owing to the crude oil price volatility. The completely refined waxes are extensively used for candle making and as wax coatings for film, paper, and foil substrates utilized in the packaging industry. Some of the other beneficial applications of wax are building materials, cosmetics, inks, corrugated board, tire and rubber, PVC, and polishes.

The growth of the global wax market is primarily driven by growing adoption of synthetic wax, and increasing applications of wax such as candle, coating & polishes, tire & rubber, and cosmetics. However, lack supply of paraffin wax, and rising prices of bio based & synthetic waxes are the major hindrance for the market growth. Further, high growth in demand for unconventional waxes is expected to pose new growth opportunities for the market in the forecast period.

The global wax is segmented into product type, application, and geography. The product type is sub-segmented into natural wax (vegetable wax, animal & insect wax, and others), synthetic wax (GTL wax, polymer wax, and others), and petroleum and mineral wax (paraffin wax, microcrystalline wax and others). Application segment is further sub-segmented into packaging, candles, rheology surface applications, cosmetics, health industries, board sizing, and other applications.
