Grafting Wax, Wax Marking & De-feathering Wax
The physical properties of waxes and wax blends allow for many applications in agriculture and horticulture.
We can modify waxes for every application. For instance: polymers can be added to increase flexibility, food-grade colour additives can be used for any marking applications, and growth hormone additives can be added to certain waxes if required.

Coloured Waxes
Coloured waxes can be used for a variety of applications, from sheep marking to fruit coatings.
- Coloured waxes can be used to identify grades of fruit and vegetables by dipping part or all in low temperature waxes. Complete dipping can provide protection and extended shelf life.
- For livestock marking, waxes can be formulated to be soft and highly coloured. These are used as livestock marking crayons or even made into ‘Ram Harness’ blocks where the wax compound provides visual evidence of mating.
Other, application-specific coloured waxes can be produced. Contact us now with your custom blend enquiry.

Others
These are just some of the applications we sell waxes for. Many customers contact us for a custom blend - please contact us now with your enquiry. Other waxes include:
- Slow release fertilisers etc: The incorporation of waxes into coatings can control the rate at which fertilisers or weed killers are introduced into soil.
- Vermin control can be achieved by combining poisons with feed and special low taint waxes.
- Special, wax based adhesives can be formulated for many other agricultural applications.
