Buying Beeswax in Bulk | 1kg

Description

Pure beeswax is extensively used and comes from our Australian beehives located on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland. Our bulk beeswax blocks are generally in 1kg blocks, but if you are wanting different sizes please get in touch. Buying beeswax in Australia has never been easier. We don’t use any chemicals in our hives, therefore no nasties are melted into the beeswax. The colour of the beeswax blocks will vary depending on the season and the types of flowers in blossom when the bees collect pollen.

Beeswax is one of nature’s most amazing products! The beeswax comes directly from uncapping our honey frames from our hives. It often varies in colour but the majority is yellow. Just like honey, the colour varies depending on what flora the bees have been collecting from. Beeswax can contain specks of pollen or remnants of honey which gives it a beautiful natural scent. The scent will vary depending on the foraging time of the year.

How do I use it?

It can be used in a very extensive list of projects. …. Such as:

• make your own balms
• home made beeswax food wraps
• surf board wax
• candles
• lubricating wood
• lubricating steel and aluminum saws
• make a batch of french canelés
• condition your cutting board
• make your own crayons
• water proof your shoes
• polish your bronze
• prevent tools from rusting
• violin string coating
• didgeridoo mouth piece coating
• coating bowls
• water proofing medieval horn mugs
• unstick your jumper zippers
• soap making
• and much much more…

All our beeswax has been lovingly hand-melted with steam and double-filtered but may still contain pollen and honey remnants. See our old melting process here. Beeswax is often yellow due to the variety of nectar, pollen, and resins gathered by the bees to make the wax and also by thousands of little bee feet walking on the frames every day. When fresh beeswax is first built in the hive it can also be white.

Our happy hives are located on suburban and rural properties from Brisbane to Gympie. We use no chemicals in the management of our bees or the processing of our raw honey or pure beeswax. We are organically minded in every step of our beekeeping journey.

When you buy any of our products you are supporting a local family of beekeepers that support an important industry and other family-run businesses. Dream big for local impact!
