Product Application
Food grade paraffin wax is a type of wax that is used in the food industry for various purposes. It is a white, odorless, and tasteless wax that is made from petroleum. It is commonly used as a coating for fruits and vegetables to extend their shelf life and prevent spoilage.
One of the main benefits of food grade paraffin wax is its ability to create a protective barrier around fruits and vegetables. This barrier helps to prevent moisture loss, which can cause the produce to wilt and spoil. It also helps to prevent mold and bacteria from growing on the surface of the produce, which can lead to foodborne illness.
In the production of chewing gum, food grade paraffin wax is used as a base for the gum. It helps to give the gum its chewy texture and helps to prevent it from sticking to teeth. It is also used in the production of hard candy to give it a shiny appearance and to prevent it from sticking together.
When using food grade paraffin wax, it is important to ensure that it is used in accordance with FDA regulations. The FDA has set strict guidelines for the use of food grade paraffin wax in the food industry to ensure that it is safe for consumption.
