Carnauba wax is a plant-based wax that is derived from the leaves of the Copernicia prunifera, a species of palm tree native to Brazil. While carnauba wax is considered a natural and renewable resource, the production can lead to deforestation and habitat destruction, and the transportation of the wax from Brazil to other countries can contribute to greenhouse gas emissions. In addition, carnauba wax is not biodegradable, so it may have a longer lasting impact on the environment when it is disposed of. That's why we decided not to use it, so no carnauba wax in our products.Instead we use polymers, which are 100% biodegradable, to give a shine to your vehicle.
