Safety is Our #1 Priority
—Kitpas Art Crayons are made with Japanese rice bran wax in a process designed to care for our customers, the planet and our employees.
You:
Our crayons are made from Japanese rice bran wax guarantee peace of mind for artists, students and children of all ages.
Planet:
Using rice bran wax, which is typically discarded, as our material helps eliminate food waste and requires less energy to manufacture.
Employees:
Melting rice wax generates less heat than paraffin wax during production for a more comfortable environment for our factory workers.
The rice we eat as part of our meal is derived
by milling the brown rice and scraping the bran layer on the rice surface.
The thin surface layer that’s peeled off
while milling is called the bran layer.
This bran layer is further separated into rice bran oil and rice bran wax
that will be used as the wax used to manufacture Kitpas.
Rice bran layer is typically discarded after the milling process,
so we decided to give it a second life
while eliminating food waste!
