Rhino Wax is an American small-batch manufacturer based in Washington State, co-founded by Paul Clark and Alan Blackford, dedicated to creating natural, environmentally conscious care products for pets and leather enthusiasts.  All of their products are made in USA and range from pet paw wax to getting baseball gloves ready for the game.  

Taking a new approach to pet paw care, Rhino Wax created unique formulas for everyday life with pets from time on the trails, beach or the hot pavement of the streets.  Every blend is made using 100% natural ingredients like beeswax, carnauba wax, coconut oil, shea butter, aloe vera, vitamin E, rosemary oil, lanolin, and more, tailored to specific surfaces.

The unique formulas range from waterproof to adding a nourishing barrier that moisturizes, heals, and protects paw pads from harsh surfaces.  Protecting pet paws from hot asphalt, salt, ice, abrasive terrain, sand, rocks, and urban debris improves the lives of our pets, improving the lives of pets and people. Each of their pet products are lick-safe and not only protect but enhance pet paws with each application.  

Rhino Wax’s company mission extends beyond effective pet care: they’re passionate about sustainability, opting for eco-friendly packaging, reducing shipping emissions, and supporting local job creation.  The same great formulas that are ideal for pet paws are ideal for leather and natural hides, which expands the lifespan and reduces the carbon footprint.

What sets Rhino Wax apart is its fusion of American innovation and environmental stewardship: a homegrown brand founded by problem-solving entrepreneurs, manufacturing locally to ensure quality, crafting specialized formulas for distinct conditions, all while emphasizing sustainability and community impact. Invented by a team that takes manufacturing in America seriously, embodying practical innovation that melds science-backed natural ingredients with purpose-driven manufacturing. It’s not just pet care: it’s a showcase of American ingenuity, eco-conscious business practices, and dedicated care for animals, people, and the planet.

What we love about their products is their attention to detail in not simply making a ‘one-size-fits-all’ wax for pet paws, they created individual formulas that address the real issues pets face with every surface their paws come in contact with; their great packaging that is made the right way; and of course the fact that the products are made in America.  Also, A portion of their profits go to the World Wildlife Fund who works to help local communities conserve the natural resources they depend upon; transform markets and policies toward sustainability; and protect and restore species and their habitats.
