In addition, Paraffin in solid form is an important component in pharmaceutical products, for example as a coating in tabletting due to its film formation, but also as a histology aid for tissue preparation.

In the food sector, Paraffin is used to seal certain products (cheese production). There are also a wide variety of technical applications where production would be unthinkable without Paraffin.
