needessentials SurfAid Not-For-Profit Wax is an eco-friendly organic blend high-performance wax made from renewable resources, including vegetable-based ingredients and natural coconut oil scent. The label is a recycled paper that is printed with soy-based ink. The wax comes in 3 different blends to suit a variety of water temperatures.

All profits from the sale of the wax will be donated directly to SurfAid, to assist  improving the health, wellbeing and self-reliance of remote communities in Indonesia and the Solomon Islands. We admire the SurfAid model, particularly the way the organisation works with, and in support of, communities in the wave-rich regions we love to visit to implement programs including mother and child health; water and sanitation; combating malaria; growing nutritious crops to lower malnutrition; community health centres; education and health support.
