Toll Manufacturing
At Kerax we make wax work. Based in Lancashire since 1962, we manufacture a range of wax, wax blends, petroleum jelly and white oils for a range of industries from pharmaceutical to fabric proofing. We can receive liquid or solid deliveries to be transformed into a variety of wax products. Our finished products are available in bulk liquid, drum, keg, IBC, pastille, powder and slab formats.
Kerax offers a discreet, bespoke manufacturing and packing service with all the benefits associated with an ISO 9000-accredited company. Acting as your 'silent partner', we provide a comprehensive range of services from supplying blends of materials manufactured by us to repackaging and distributing purchased materials.
