Averages are arithmetic means of listed row midpoints in USD/MT. Click a country to open its current FOB/FCA table. Production origins, distribution origins and re-export hubs are identified separately.
Methodology and Commercial Scope
Hub selection
The hub list is rebuilt from the latest complete comparable World Bank/WITS HS 271220 exporter data available for this update (2024 trade), then tested against current producer/distributor, product and loading evidence. A country can remain in scope while a specific terminal or grade is withheld if current public evidence does not support it.
Product and price validation
Product rows use current manufacturer or distributor portfolios where available. September 2026 regional indices, current Mersin/Jebel Ali quotations, public FOB benchmarks and grade/form/packing differentials are market anchors. No supplier-specific grade, packing format or loading point is inferred where it is not publicly documented.
Basis and quotation boundary
Sea-port rows use FOB; refinery, warehouse, rail and land-border handovers use FCA. A commercial quote requires the exact grade and COA, quantity, packing, named Incoterm point, destination, inspection, documentation, payment route, carrier feasibility and loading window.

Usage Note and Data Quality Controls
- All values are FOB/FCA screening indications in USD/MT and are non-binding unless confirmed in a dated commercial offer.
- HS 271220 covers paraffin wax containing less than 0.75% oil; HS 271290 is used only as a cross-check for semi-refined, higher-oil and other mineral-wax flows.
- France is retained because current North Atlantic information for the Gravenchon platform explicitly lists paraffins among specialty products; obsolete ExxonMobil grade attribution has been removed.
- Singapore uses current Chem On evidence for Semi Refined Paraffin Wax 58/60 in 50 kg packing.
- Belgium is retained as a distribution/re-export origin, but unsupported grade-by-grade paraffin rows have been consolidated into one RFQ-specific row.
- Saudi Arabia retains current Day Candle grade evidence, while packaging and exact loading point are explicitly left for RFQ confirmation.
- Switzerland retains the current ECSA 56/58 °C plate product and its published 5 kg, 23 kg and 25 kg packaging formats.
- Iran uses the September 13, 2026 reference dataset: 65 rows across 12 current gateways. Astara / Azerbaijan–Caucasus is not assigned a current FCA price because commercial cargo movement across the Iran–Azerbaijan border remains temporarily suspended.
- For contracting, request current TDS/COA, manufacturer/refinery origin, batch details, exact packing, named FOB/FCA point, inspection, carrier acceptance, payment route and loading window.
Paraffin Wax Price FAQ
What is the current global Paraffin Wax planning range?
As of September 13, 2026, the listed FOB/FCA range is USD 500–2,400/MT. The spread reflects refining level, oil content, melting range, product form, origin, packing and delivery point.
What changed in the export-hub list in this update?
France is added after the latest complete HS 271220 exporter data and current product evidence were rechecked. The page now covers 24 distinct country origins or trading hubs; non-country aggregate reporters remain excluded.
How are country and hub tables selected?
Selection starts with World Bank/WITS HS 271220 exporter data, then checks relevant HS 271290 trade and requires current evidence for a product portfolio plus a practical FOB/FCA loading or handover point. Trade value alone is not sufficient.
Why can a regional price index differ from a table row?
Regional indices describe broad market direction. Individual grades carry premiums or discounts for purity, oil content, melting range, formulation, packing, lot size and local loading economics.
Why does the map average differ from a specific price row?
The map value is the arithmetic mean of the midpoints of all rows listed for that country. Commercial comparison should use the exact row matching the required product, grade, packing and basis.
Are these prices binding offers?
No. Mersin and Jebel Ali single values are dated public market quotations; the other values are planning assessments. A binding offer requires a current RFQ and commercial confirmation.
What is the current Iran Paraffin Wax range used here?
The latest dedicated Iran reference available for this update is dated September 13, 2026: USD 870–1,295/MT across twelve gateways, including Bandar Abbas, Imam Khomeini/Mahshahr, Bushehr, Chabahar, Bazargan, Khoy, Norduz, Parvizkhan, Bashmaq, Mehran, Dogharoun and Mirjaveh.
What information is required for a reliable RFQ?
Specify refining level, maximum oil content, melting range, color requirement, quantity, packing, named FOB/FCA point, destination, loading window, inspection, COA, SDS, export documents and payment route.
