Market Insights:
The global paraffin wax market accounted for USD 5.3 billion in 2016. Paraffin wax is mainly used for producing aroma candles as they are cost efficient and requires use of less machinery. Increased standard of living of the individuals has raised the consumer awareness regarding home ambiance and aromatherapy.

Increased usage in the fields of manufacturing industrial coatings, body care products, metal casting, and electrical insulations is likely to drive the market in the near future. Apart from the cost efficiency and easy availability, these products provide outstanding water resistance to packaging and hence are anticipated to witness prominent growth over the coming years

The growing demand for manufacturing candles and its packaging and hotmelts is anticipated to boost the market over the forecast period.  Increased demand for chlorinated paraffin is also one of the factors to stimulate the growth.

As the Paraffin waxes are petroleum-based products, changes in the petroleum prices may cause the price of these products to rise, limiting the growth of the market.  Additionally, the increased usage of the alternatives such as beeswax, soy, and polyethylene wax are anticipated to restrain the market from flourishing.

The Paraffin wax market by type has been sub-segmented into fully refined wax, semi-refined wax among others.
