Carnauba wax Brazil. Leading the industry on sustainability.
SOCIAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL PURPOSE IN THE MANUFACTURE OF PREMIUM QUALITY CARNAUBA WAX
If you question anyone involved in the procurement of premium quality Carnauba wax, Brazil is renowned for the care and industry invested into this product, whose origin is unique to our country. For centuries, our ecology and biome have gifted us the Carnauba palm whose leaves yield a wax of the very highest quality. Against this backdrop, Pontes Industria is proud to play a leading and unique role.
Tracing our history back to the 19th Century and re-established in the 1950s by Liaderson Pontes, we are not only one of the finest Carnauba manufacturers Brazil has, but the industry’s leading and most influential activist for the welfare and education of its workers, and for the protection of the biome on which all our livelihoods depend.
