Only 16 suppliers are currently active in the Paraffin Wax category, which means each one is a key player in the market. With such a small pool, buyers can expect personalized attention and deeper engagement—no need to sift through a crowd of generic offers. This tight group also means that a single supplier’s availability can shift the entire market dynamic quickly. 58 listings are currently live, offering a range of grades, colors, and packaging options. While not massive, this volume still gives buyers a solid starting point to match their specific needs without having to start from scratch or rely on custom quotes. The fact that 3 suppliers updated their listings in the last 30 days suggests active supply refreshes, meaning the catalog is not static. Suppliers come from 11 different countries, with Germany accounting for 18.8% of the total. This geographic spread offers buyers flexibility in sourcing—Germany is a strong presence, but the other 10 countries provide viable alternatives for those looking to diversify origin or avoid regional supply risks. Buyer inquiries surged 1400% to 15 in the last 30 days, signaling a sharp spike in demand. Against just 16 suppliers, this level of interest means availability is likely to tighten rapidly—buyers should act now to secure supply before the current suppliers are fully booked.

Methodology
How the numbers on this page are produced, and what they do not cover.
Every figure comes from Paraffin Wax listings, supplier quotes and buyer requests posted on Freshdi in the 365 days to 15 October 2026 - 58 active listings, 3 buyer requests, 14 source documents, and 119 supply observations from the last 90 days. External export benchmarks are cited separately and never mixed into Freshdi figures.
Price and MOQ ranges are the interquartile range - the middle half of quotes, a quarter below and a quarter above - with the median reported alongside. A Paraffin Wax type is priced only once it holds at least 5% of supply price quotes and 3 priced listings with a real range; below that it is not listed. Buyer prices are compared only once there are at least 5 of them.
All prices are FOB, in USD per metric ton; quotes on other Incoterms are converted to a FOB equivalent. Freshdi does not hold a CIF price series for Paraffin Wax, so no landed-cost comparison is possible from this data.
Product freshness counts listings created or updated. Supplier activity counts sellers by their last update. The two are different measurements and will not agree.
Freshdi reprocesses market data every hour, with one snapshot a day for trends. This page's figures, certification coverage included, refresh every 14 days on a rolling 365-day window.
