Wax Painting Museum Introduction
Established in 1990, Wax Art Industry aims to promote high-quality crayons made in Taiwan. In 2008, they opened the Wax Art Painting Museum for public visits to raise awareness. Continuing its innovation and improvement, it became the first excellent tourist factory in the stationery industry certified by the Ministry of Economic Affairs in 2010. Currently, Wax Art is the only factory in Taiwan that produces crayons using a complete process. By continuously developing and researching, they have expanded the functionalities of crayons, allowing different age groups to use crayons with various features. At the Wax Art Painting Museum, visitors can gain insights into the crayon production process through guided videos, learning about the techniques and materials involved.
