1- The wax is dissolved at 90ยบ C in a thick walled vat heated with steam.
2- The wax has to be weighed to determine the quantity of pigment to be added. This is the only way to ensure each crayon will have the same colour tone.
3- The wax is then put into a machine which works like a liquidizer and the pigments are added. The mixture is kept warm until it gets uniform.
4- The mixture is then put in mouldes that will determine the shape of the crayon.
5- The mouldes are then rapidly cooled with water for three minutes so the mixture solidifies.
6- The crayons are pulled out from the mouldes, paper wrapped and then boxed ready for sale.
