What is Petroleum Jelly White? Petroleum Jelly White is a refined mixture of hydrocarbons, commonly known as white petrolatum, derived from crude oil through a purification process. It is a semi-solid, translucent substance that is odourless and non-reactive, making it ideal for use in various industrial, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic applications. Petroleum Jelly White is widely valued for its ability to form a protective barrier on the skin, preventing moisture loss and aiding in the healing of minor cuts and burns. It is commonly used in personal care products, as well as in manufacturing processes that require a non-toxic, stable, and versatile substance.

Frequent Uses
Cosmetic and Personal Care
Widely used in the cosmetic industry for its moisturising and skin-protective properties. It is an essential ingredient in the formulation of products such as lotions, lip balms, creams, and ointments. It is particularly effective in treating dry skin, chapped lips, and minor skin irritations, creating a barrier that locks in moisture.
Pharmaceutical Applications
In the pharmaceutical industry, it is used as a base in topical ointments and creams for wound care, burn treatment, and other skin conditions. Its occlusive nature helps speed up the healing process by keeping wounds hydrated and protected from external contaminants. It is also used in formulations for baby care products, such as nappy creams, due to its gentle, non-irritating properties.
Industrial Applications
It has several industrial uses, including as a lubricant and rust inhibitor. It is used in the protection of metal surfaces, such as in the automotive and machinery sectors, where it helps prevent corrosion and wear. It is also employed as a lubricant in the manufacturing of various mechanical components, reducing friction and wear on parts.
Pet Care Products
Commonly found in pet care products, especially in products designed to protect and hydrate pets' skin. It is used to treat dry noses, paws, and elbows, providing a protective layer that prevents moisture loss and shields the skin from environmental damage.
Textile and Leather Industries
In the textile and leather industries, it is used to soften and condition materials. It is often applied to leather goods to maintain their suppleness and prevent cracking. It is also used to improve the finish and texture of textiles and leather products, contributing to the longevity and quality of the material.
Biodegradable Products
Petroleum Jelly White has found use in the production of biodegradable products, including eco-friendly lubricants and protective coatings. Its non-toxic, stable nature makes it an ideal candidate for use in sustainable manufacturing practices that prioritise safety and environmental responsibility
