Norevo Beeswax Blocks

Just like Norevo, bees can be found all over the world. They essentially contribute to the preservation and the continued existence of nature. Thanks to our many years of experience in the honey business, we have a worldwide network of beekeepers in place. These close contacts enable us to source a wide range of beeswaxes to meet extensive quality requirements.

Beeswax is insoluble in water and attracts water molecules from the air. The effect: a kind of moisture depot that keeps your skin silky for a long time, making it feel permanently nourished and relaxed. Thanks to its slightly antiseptic and thus anti-inflammatory effect, beeswax is reported to help with irritations and even eczema. It contains plenty of vitamin A, helping the skin to regenerate, stay elastic, and prevent the formation of wrinkles.

Beeswax gives products viscosity, has rich care properties, and provides for a good adhesion to the skin. Thanks to our many years of experience in the honey segment, we have a worldwide network of beekeepers in place. This allows us to source a wide range of beeswaxes that meet extensive quality requirements and can be traced back to their origin.
