Melting Packaging wax is used in the packaging industry and applied by coating the product with wax (placing wax on the surface of packaging material), laminating the item with wax (applying wax between two materials), and/or impregnating the molten wax into the packaging material surface.

Melted wax is need whether the packaging materials are coated, laminated, or impregnated since it is usually applied with a continuous flow wax. WaxMelters packaging melting tanks are designed to provide you with a steady stream of molten packaging wax which can then be:
  • Sprayed or flushed (saturated) onto the packaging material
  • Passed through a "Curtain Coating" of packaging wax
  • The packaging material can be dipped and submerged directly into the melted packaging wax
Melting packaging wax can be applied using a metal or rubber roller onto the packaging material. Ultimately, every process requires melting you packaging wax which is generally made of paraffin, a blend of wax with paraffin, and some form of microcrystalline especially when adhesion and flexibility are desired.
