2000 – Genesis of Jax Wax

2000 – Our First Product

2000 – Alliances Created and Production Began
Setting up in a friend’s factory, a prototype bead making machine was designed and built by Geoff and production of Jax Wax’s bottle sealing wax in pellet form began. It was then sold to a wholesaler in the wine industry selling bottles, corks and packaging.
