The paraffin wax market has been witnessing steady growth over the past few years. The demand for paraffin wax for candle making is very high, owing to the increasing popularity of aromatherapy and home fragrance products. These waxes can also be used to provide relief from pain to muscles and sore joints. Furthermore, High melting point paraffin wax can be used as an external lubricant for PVC.

Paraffin wax is a colourless, white soft wax that generally comes in solid or liquid form. It obtains from the petroleum coal and oil shale, which consists of a mixture of solid straight-chain hydrocarbons. It is used in paper, candles, cosmetics, polishes, and electrical insulators. It also assists in extracting perfumes from flowers, supplies a waterproof coating for wood, and forms a base for medical ointments.

The global paraffin wax market is growing at a steady growth rate, owing to increasing demand for a variety of end-use applications such as candle manufacturing, rubber, cosmetics, etc. In addition to this, the rising usage of paraffin wax in the packaging and automotive industry further drives the growth of the market. Furthermore, the increasing application of paraffin wax for therapy treatment is expected to offer new growth opportunities for the vendors in the market. However, growing usage for environment-friendly alternatives, such as beeswax, soy, and polyethylene wax, is anticipated to hamper the growth of the paraffin wax market over the forecast period.
