I do not ave the package, so I can't verify : but having used them, I can tell you if it isn't beeswax, it i something cheaper, possibly paraffin. Soy wax would be better but it is a little soft for crayons. These are usable, but do not expect a bright color. . The aso do not mix well with other wax based paints: they sit on top, and disappear into the previous layer without making much of a difference. If you are looking for organically pure crayons, you won'y find them in this box.

They are not wax (but they look like it!). They are polycarbonate (plastic) and shouldn't be an issue using in one of the southern states. They also don't give off heat if that's what you're worry about as well. Hope that helps!

Yes, they are. From the company's website: http://www.naturesplus.com/products/productdetail.php?productNumber=3421&criteria=keywordSearchResults

Their packaging says all-natural but doesn't mention organic. Their website (justins dot com, under initiatives) says they can't source organic nuts at this time.

it doesn't say on the box which probably means that they are not. Sorry I am not more help.

They appear to be a #7 plastic, which according to the internet is a catch-all category which makes it difficult to know exactly what the composition is. BPA, etc, can not be ruled out from this category of plastics. I wish I had asked the same question. Otherwise the quality is very good.

They are most likely comparing them to others on the market. In comparison to others on the market they are light and natural. Unless you just got a thick batch. It would be hard to say because I can't see your product first hand. I hope this helps.

The box I received says "Blue Nitrile" with no mention of vinyl, and the gloves are blue, so I'm assuming that they are nitrile.

These are NOT paraffin wax. I don't know what they are exactly (have contacted Weber, and obtained the MSDS... it doesn't say, they won't say, and the information isn't on the web anywhere that I could find to date). They are a sort of fine-granular synthetic wax/styrofoam type of material impregnated with a flammable liquid/solvent. They are crumbly (like baking soda held together loosely with a weak liquid binder). They don't 'melt'. They DO dry out, but it takes quite a while... from my experience let's say you leave it out for a month (out of the foil packaging) then you will only get a 4-5 minute burn time instead of 9 minutes. Don't know how long one would have to leave them out before they fail completely. The foil seal on the plastic trays they come in is very thin/weak. Keep them protected in the original box... if you want them to be mobile/packed then will need to repackage somehow air tight. BONUS: they are virtually the same material as a WetFire Fire Starter, used for camping/hiking/bushcraft... but are SIGNIFICANTLY cheaper. Problem is they are not as conveniently individually packaged. Solution: repackage in some sort of air-tight-as-possible method, or dip a few times into real paraffin was (sealing them).

It says they are phthalate free on the description above. (By the way, why do people answer that they don't know if they don't know? That's a non-answer, isn't it?)

I always thought they were but I'm not seeing it spelled out on the package. You can look at bobsredmill.com for more info. Good luck!

The manufacturer says they are non-toxic ... but I do not intend to eat one to find out if the claim is true or not.

Yes they are. However, I noticed that someone below mentioned they got them from Simply Nuts. I bought mine from Angelina's Gourmet as they are the only manufacturer I know that processes them in a BRC facility. Buying from other suppliers - caveat emptor.

I'm thinking it's more likely they are some kind of plastic. But then I'm not a rubber/plastic expert. I base my answer on the fact that they are semi-transparent, don't SMELL like rubber, and the package itself does not use the word "rubber" on the label.

On another site it says they are, but I advice calling the company directly and verifying to be sure :)
