Eco Lounge has been ahead of the fluoro free curve for over a decade.
We are nearing a 20 year partnership with Purl. The shop favorite for performance wax. For high-performance race wax. We partner with Wend Waxworks. Their fluoro replacement formula is leading the high-performance + eco friendly charge.
About Meadowfoam: The MF labeled products contain Meadowfoam® oil and/or Meadowfoam® wax. Meadowfoam® is a wildflower native to California and Oregon. Meadowfoam® seeds contain an oil which has unique chemical properties that make it one of the most stable vegetable oils known. All the Meadowfoam® snow wax blends are biodegradable and non-toxic.
WEND MF Race waxes contain a higher concentration of Meadowfoam® plant seed oil which works similar to fluoro, yet is bio friendly, resists snow contaminants, and conditions your base. These waxes perform similar to a mid-fluoro wax.

There are two main areas of concerns with fluorinated waxes. The first area is related to wax technicians inhaling toxins from the fumes and dust. Read the article below called Human Exposure to Fluorinated Ski Wax.
The second concern is related to the production process. Manufacturing fluoro products requires some nasty chemicals, including Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA). These chemicals can end up in the water streams and are proven linked to negative health effects.
