Clarence Gereau founded Blended Waxes, Inc. (BWI) on May 1, 1976 at our current Oshkosh, Wisconsin location. Originally producing cheese waxes and hot melt adhesives, in the mid-1980s we expanded our custom-blending operation to include wax emulsions and synthetic lubricants. Blended Waxes is now recognized as a full-service custom-blend facility and contract manufacturer.
