Description

Beeswax is not just an unimportant by-product of beekeeping, but a valuable natural treasure with numerous applications. This perhaps “familiar” yellow, fragrant substance, secreted by young worker bees, serves as a basic building material in the bee kingdom, but also as a valuable raw material for many purposes in industry and the household.

Advantages of beeswax:

Beeswax has numerous advantages over synthetic alternatives:

• Natural: Beeswax is a completely natural product and it is safer for health then many synthetic products.
• Renewable: Bees continually produce beeswax, which makes it a renewable source.
• Biodegradable: Beeswax breaks down relatively quickly in natural conditions and it does not present a special burden on the environment, as paraffin does.
• High-quality: Beeswax has excellent physical and chemical properties, which makes it a durable product with long-lasting effects.
