IGI 1239A Paraffin Wax

IGI 1239A Paraffin Wax is a durable, fully refined paraffin wax favored by makers who want crisp, sturdy candles with a classic handcrafted look. Its firm structure and clean-burning characteristics make it a natural fit where strength and detail matter.

IGI 1239A is supplied in solid, breakable slabs that are easy to portion for melting. Because the slabs are poured and cooled in molds, individual pieces may vary slightly in weight. Each case contains four heavy-duty slabs packaged together in a reinforced box, designed to protect the wax during transport and long-term storage.
