Vaseline Wholesale Prices

Vazelin toptan fiyatları — bulk petroleum jelly prices — move with crude feedstock costs, refinement grade, and order volume, not with a single published rate. Buyers researching vazelin toptan should expect a price band tied to purity tier and shipment size rather than one fixed number. This guide explains what shapes that band, which standards buyers should check, and how to evaluate a supplier before committing to an order.

Quick facts for buyers

• Petroleum jelly (vazelin) is traded globally as a semisolid mixture of hydrocarbons obtained from petroleum (USP, 2024).
• Its melting behavior is tested to ASTM D127, the standard drop-melting-point method for petroleum wax and petrolatum (ASTM International).
• Its consistency is tested to ASTM D937, the standard cone-penetration method for petrolatum (ASTM International).
• India was the top global exporter of petroleum jelly (HS 271210) in 2024, at $102,195.37 thousand for 60,349,800 kg — ahead of the European Union at $70,584.96 thousand (World Bank WITS/UN Comtrade, 2024).
• Buyers search Vazelin toptan under several near-identical terms: vazelin toptan fiyatı 2026, vazelin toptan satın alma, vazelin toptan satış, and vazelin satan firmalar.
• No single wholesale price applies across grades — industrial and higher-refinement grades sit at different price points, and a credible quote always states grade before price.

Who this guide is for

This article serves three buyer types researching vazelin toptan fiyatları. Cosmetics and personal-care formulators need consistent semisolid base material for creams and balms and want to understand grade-driven pricing before they issue an RFQ. Candle and wax blenders evaluating petroleum-jelly-adjacent wax stock want the same grade literacy applied to their own material. Procurement and sourcing managers at distributors want a defensible way to compare supplier quotes without relying on marketing language. Each section below answers one of these groups directly.

What determines the wholesale price of vazelin?

Three variables set the price a buyer is quoted: feedstock cost, refinement grade, and order volume. Feedstock cost tracks broader petroleum-refining price movements — the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics publishes both industry-based and commodity-stage petroleum price indexes that track this upstream cost (BLS, undated). Refinement grade is the second variable: a semi-refined grade and a higher-refinement grade are priced on different curves, and any quote that skips this distinction is incomplete. Volume is the third: bulk drums or tote quantities carry a different per-kilogram rate than smaller trial orders.

Feedstock and market pricing services

For wax-adjacent materials specifically, independent industry pricing exists: Argus Media runs Argus Global Waxes, a monthly service assessing paraffin wax, liquid and slab wax, and feedstock slack wax across Asia, Europe and the Americas (Argus Media, undated). A buyer negotiating vazelin toptan fiyatları can use this kind of independent assessment as a cross-check against a supplier's quote, even though the service itself does not price petrolatum directly.

Grade as a cost driver

Grade separates cleanly into two commercial tiers. Industrial and general-purpose semisolid petroleum products sit at one price point; other, higher-refinement grades used for different end markets sit at another. A buyer requesting a quote should always confirm which tier is being priced — a number without a stated grade is not a usable quote.

What is the difference in prices among cosmetic, industrial, and white vaseline?

Pricing differs by refinement tier and by intended end use, not by marketing label. Industrial-grade material, used as a base for compounding and blending, is typically the most cost-efficient tier. Higher-refinement and whiter tiers — the ones formulators reference when they search White, Snow White, or Super Snow White grades — sit above industrial pricing because of the additional processing involved. A buyer comparing quotes should ask each supplier to state the exact grade against each price, since "cosmetic" and "industrial" are not interchangeable labels and a mismatch between grade and application is the most common sourcing error.

Standards a buyer should check before ordering

Petroleum jelly is not a single specification — it is verified against several independent test methods and pharmacopeial monographs. The table below summarizes what each one measures and why it matters to a bulk buyer.

Applications that shape which grade to request

Cosmetics and personal care

The waxes family is used to make cosmetic creams and balms, serving the cosmetics and personal-care industry. A formulator sourcing for this end use should request documentation against the USP petrolatum monograph criteria and confirm penetration and melting-point figures against ASTM D937 and ASTM D127 before finalizing a purchase order.

Candles and wax blending

The waxes family is also used to make candles, serving the candle industry — relevant to buyers working in container candles, economy and utility candle lines, grave and church candle production, or slack-wax blending. Buyers in this segment should confirm melting point against ASTM D127 since it directly affects pour and set behavior in production.

How to choose reliable vaseline suppliers in Turkey?

Start by asking for grade documentation, not a price sheet. A reliable supplier states the exact grade, references the test methods used to verify it (ASTM D127, ASTM D937), and can explain how that grade maps to your intended use. Second, ask about origin and consistency of supply across repeat orders — a supplier that cannot confirm batch-to-batch consistency is a supply-chain risk regardless of price. Third, check whether the supplier operates as a single accountable house or routes through multiple intermediaries; each additional intermediary adds cost and reduces traceability. Finally, confirm minimum order quantity and lead time in writing before comparing final price, since two quotes at different volumes are not comparable.

What to check before you order

• Confirm the exact grade being quoted — industrial versus other higher-refinement tiers — before comparing price
• Request test data or a certificate referencing ASTM D127 (melting point) and ASTM D937 (cone penetration)
• Ask which pharmacopeial monograph, if any, the material is produced to meet
• Confirm minimum order quantity and whether pricing is per kilogram, per drum, or per tote
• Ask about origin and whether the supplier can hold grade consistency across repeat shipments
• Clarify lead time and delivery terms in writing, not verbally
• Ask whether the quote is from the supplying house directly or through an intermediary
• Cross-check the quoted price band against independent market context where available, rather than accepting a single number in isolation

Working with BHD Group

BHD Group operates two divisions, BHD Chemical and BHD Sourcing, as one accountable house rather than a network of intermediaries. Petroleum Jelly sits in our wax range alongside Paraffin Wax and Slack Wax — the range we lead with — and any quote we issue states grade before price, on spec and on time. Buyers researching vazelin toptan fiyatları are welcome to request a grade-specific quote directly; we do not publish a single blanket price because, as this guide sets out, grade and volume are what actually determine it.
