Rice bran wax is gaining popularity in Australia as an eco-friendly alternative for cosmetics, food coatings, and industrial applications. It is primarily imported from rice-producing countries such as India and China. The growing focus on sustainable and plant-based ingredients in various industries supports market growth. However, limited domestic production and competition from other natural waxes, such as beeswax and carnauba wax, pose challenges.
The rising demand for plant-based and sustainable alternatives in various industries has significantly contributed to the growth of the rice bran wax market in Australia. This wax is widely used in cosmetics, food processing, and pharmaceuticals due to its natural emollient properties and biodegradable nature. Additionally, the increasing preference for organic and eco-friendly products has encouraged manufacturers to replace synthetic waxes with rice bran wax.
