Polishes typically contain a lot of abrasives, rinsing agents and organic solvents. Protectants typically contain
neither abrasives nor rinsing agents, less organic solvents than the two other product types and a lot of
protectant. Polishes are used to maintain a glossy finish on surfaces as well as to prolong the useful lives of
these surfaces. Polishes can be described in terms of their physical form, carrier system, ability to clean, and
durability. Physical forms of polishes include pastes, pre-softened pastes (non-flowing emulsions), liquids,
and gels. Polishes beautify and protect by coating or refinishing surfaces.
Waxes are used as finishes and coatings for wood products. Waxes are also used in shoe polishes, wood
polishes, and automotive polishes, as mold release agents in mold making.
Furniture polish value sales are expected to reach US$ 13,101.3 mn by 2027, expanding at a CAGR of 5.0%.
Shoe polish protects the shoes from moisture, water, and becoming hard. It provides the shoes with a waxy
coating and a shine. Shoe polish market is concentrated in the urban areas. The global shoe polish market is
projected to grow at a CAGR of 2.75% over the forecast period of 2019-2025. The global metal polish
products market has been registering rapid growth, owing to the use of different metal alloys in machinery,
furniture and other metal products due to their cheaper cost and high efficiency. Globally, the metal polish
market has been witnessing significant growth, owing to the rise in the demand for cleaning and polishing
products.
The book contains formulations and manufacturing process of auto polish and wax products, furniture polish,
marine polish, metal polish and shoe polish, their marketing strategies, BIS specification, directory section,
plant layouts and photographs of machinery with supplier’s contact details.
