About Us

Welcome to Parawax

Where Timeless Craftsmanship Meets Modern Style

At Parawax, we are passionate about crafting waxed canvas fabric that stands the test of time and meets the demands of the contemporary lifestyle. Our journey traces back to the mid-19th century when resourceful Scottish sailors discovered the magic of impregnating sail fabric with paraffin wax. This innovative technique produced a highly water-resistant and breathable waxed canvas that remained supple and reliable in the face of harsh conditions.

Drawing inspiration from this rich history, Parawax was born with a vision to revive the classic art of waxed canvas and tailor it to the needs of the international lifestyle and hobby market. With our commitment to preserving tradition and embracing innovation, we have created four distinct sub-brands: Classic, Koton, Nova, and Revive.

  • Classic :

    Classic represents the essence of waxed canvas with its timeless appeal and enduring qualities. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, Classic waxed canvas stays true to its historical roots, offering water resistance, breathability, and unmatched durability. Whether it's a rugged backpack for an adventurer or an elegant jacket for a style-conscious urbanite, Classic waxed canvas effortlessly blends form and function.
