PW5 Portable Mini Wax Heater

180ml in a squared, space-saver case — a printed dial, a see-through lid and a lead you can unplug.

PW5 is the retail-priced member of the 180ml platform: the same Ø74 × 45 mm pot and 50W PTC base as PW8, built into a squared case of 116 × 111 × 137.5 mm instead of a rounded body. The dial carries printed positions — OFF, STANDBY, MED, HOT, MAX — so the operator turns to MAX to melt and back to MED to hold, with the red lamp showing when the element is on. The smoked lid lifts off in one piece and the lead unplugs for storage, which is what makes the unit shippable as a single-parcel, low-cost SKU. Black and white are standard; the silicone bowl is an option you can buy from us, or source locally.

Product overview

What PW5 is built around

PW5 is aimed at the part of the market that buys a heater by the unit rather than by the carton set: brow and face waxing, a spare warmer for a second treatment room, a starter listing on a marketplace, or a travel kit where the parcel weight decides the price. Everything on the machine is there to keep the landed cost down without turning it into a disposable — a metal-shell pot with a non-stick coating, a PTC element on the base, a dial instead of a digital board, and a lead that unplugs so the retail box stays small.

01

Space-saver case

116 × 111 mm on the bench and 137.5 mm tall — smaller than a coffee cup in footprint. It fits beside a trolley on a nail desk where a 450ml warmer will not.

02

Fixed non-stick pot

Ø74 × 45 mm, 180ml, coated so cooled wax lifts out in one piece. No insert can to lose and no seam for wax to creep under.

03

See-through lid, unpluggable lead

The smoked lid lifts off and sets down flat, and the melt is visible without taking it off. The lead unplugs at the back for storage and for a smaller retail box.

Dial & operation

Five printed positions — melt on MAX, hold on MED, standby between clients.

The dial is a mechanical thermostat with printed positions rather than a digital set point, so there is nothing to programme and nothing to reset after a power cut. The working sequence is the one in the manual: turn to MAX to melt, turn back to MED to hold the wax at working temperature, and switch off when the service ends.

Black unit: the same dial printed in white. Nothing else on the panel changes.
OFF

Element isolated. The unit is off at the dial, not just idle — the position to leave it in before unplugging.

STANDBY

Between clients: warm enough to shorten the next melt, low enough not to cook the wax through a quiet hour.

MED — hold

The manual's holding position after melting. Wax stays workable without smoking or skinning over.

HOT / MAX — melt

MAX is the melting position: a 200 g load of beads reaches working temperature in roughly ten minutes, then the dial goes back to MED.

The red lamp follows the thermostat, not the dial: it cycles on and off while the unit holds temperature, and stays off when the dial is at OFF. Positions are printed, not numbered in degrees — for a wax that needs a written set point, use the digital models in the same 180ml platform.

Same pot, three routes to market

PW5 vs PW8 vs BWW6 — what actually differs.

PW5 and PW8 share the pot, the element and the temperature range; the difference is the case and the dial printing. BWW6 is the 450ml entry platform, sold as a set. Choose by the channel and the parcel, not by the spec sheet alone.

PW5 and PW8 are the same 180ml platform. If the brief needs a written set point or a display, quote PW8 or a digital model; if the brief is a case that fits where a 450ml unit will not, PW5 is the cheaper route to the same pot.

Packaging & cartons

Neutral as standard. Printed boxes only at volume.

Every unit ships in a printed retail box with no BeauTome logo and no model story beyond the plate — a neutral box you can label, sticker or sleeve for your own listing. The export carton is unprinted and holds 36 units. A printed carton exists as a separate tooling project for very large programmes, and is quoted per order rather than offered as a standard option.

StandardAt volume only
Retail box135 × 117 × 142 mm, 300 g single-side coated board, matte lamination, single-lid tuck base, four-colour printYour artwork on the same die — artwork and plate cost per order
Export carton36 units, unprinted, five-layer corrugated60-unit carton, 605 × 560 × 446 mm, single-colour print, glued seam
Minimum order1,224 pcs = 34 standard cartonsQuoted against the printed-carton run and the deposit
LabelNeutral plate: model, colour, voltage, CE / FCC / disposal marks, barcode fieldYour brand, your barcode, your language set
DocumentsNeutral manual, 145 × 210 mm, folded, single-colourYour manual, your language, your warranty text on the back page

A printed carton is a tooling decision, not a sticker: the plate, the die and the minimum run have to pay for themselves across the programme. If the first order is a trial, take the neutral carton and revisit the box when the repeat order is on the table.

PW5 white with the lid lifted off — the fixed non-stick pot is visible, sized for an optional silicone liner
The pot is Ø74 mm inside. A standard silicone liner drops straight in — ours or anyone else's.
Silicone bowl

A commodity liner, priced like one.

The bowl is a wear part, not a feature. We quote it in standard food-grade silicone, in the colours we already run, and we do not pretend it is a reason to buy the heater. Buyers who already have a liner supplier should keep using them — the pot is a standard Ø74 mm well and any liner of that size fits.

01

Our standard bowl

Standard-grade silicone, sized to the Ø74 × 45 mm pot, quoted per unit alongside the heater. Not a custom mould.

02

Source it yourself

The well is a common size. If your market already has a liner supplier, ship the heater alone and let the buyer pair it — it keeps the landed cost of the heater down.

03

Custom liner

A printed or coloured liner is a separate mould and a separate minimum. Ask for it as an accessory programme, not as part of the heater quotation.

Channel

Built for the listing, not for the catalogue.

PW5 is the unit we quote when the buyer's plan is a marketplace listing rather than a salon programme. The economics are set by the parcel: a small box, a light carton, two colours that photograph cleanly, and a price point that leaves room for the platform commission.

Ozon and the Russian market

The 180ml format sells as a single-unit listing and as a two-pack, and the white unit is the one that photographs best against a light background. Neutral cartons mean the listing artwork carries the brand, not the box, so a seller can test two brand names off one production run.

Small-parcel marketplaces

36 units to a carton keeps the inbound shipment inside a small-parcel band, and the 137.5 mm height keeps the retail box inside the volumetric tier that most platforms price on. Replenishment can be a single carton.

One lead, several markets

The lead unplugs at the machine end, so a plug head for the destination market goes in the box without a second SKU — one build covers the EU, the UK, the US and Australia. It is also what makes PW5 the travel and desk unit: the cable comes off and the case packs flat.

Where PW5 sits in our own line

We sell two entry routes and they are not competitors. BWW6 is the 450ml platform we build kit programmes on — heater, four 100 g pouches, ten spatulas, sold as a named set on Ozon and through private programmes. PW5 is the bare 180ml unit we quote when the buyer wants the lowest landed cost per piece, or a small case for brow and face work. Same factory, same certificates, two different price points.

If a buyer asks for the cheapest heater we can ship, this is the model. If the buyer asks for a set that can carry a brand, that is BWW6.

The one structural difference worth knowing before you choose: both machines run a wide-voltage PTC element, but the BWW6 lead is molded to the body while the PW5 lead unplugs. That makes PW5 the model to stock when you want one unlabelled SKU covering several socket standards; with BWW6 the plug head is fixed at packing, so the market has to be named on the order.

Questions

PW5 frequently asked questions

What is the difference between PW5 and PW8?

The pot, the element and the temperature range are the same: 180ml, Ø74 mm, 50W, 30–145°C. PW5 puts them in a squared 116 × 111 × 137.5 mm case with a printed OFF / STANDBY / MED / HOT / MAX dial; PW8 uses a rounded 128 × 93 × 93 mm body with a larger Ø108.5 mm cover and a dial printed OFF / STANDBY / WAX / HOT / READY. PW5 is the lower-cost case; PW8 is the rounder retail shape.

Why is the MOQ 1,224 pcs rather than 1,080?

Because the carton is 36 units and we quote in whole cartons: 34 cartons is 1,224 pcs. If your programme needs a different split, tell us the target quantity and we will quote the nearest carton multiple rather than round you up silently.

Is the lead removable?

Yes. The lead unplugs at the rear panel, which is what keeps the retail box at 135 × 117 × 142 mm and makes the unit easier to store. Plug heads are fitted for the destination market — US, EU, UK or AU.

Do I have to buy the silicone bowl from you?

No. The pot is a standard Ø74 mm well and any liner of that size fits. We quote a standard-grade bowl if you want one line item from a single supplier, but sourcing your own is a normal way to keep the landed cost down. A printed or coloured liner is a separate mould and minimum.

Can the retail box carry my brand?

At volume, yes — the printed carton and the printed box are quoted as a tooling project against your artwork. Below that, the unit ships in the neutral printed box with a barcode field and no BeauTome logo, and you label or sleeve it.

What documentation comes with the unit?

CE / RoHS / FCC declaration documents for the model family, a neutral manual in the language you specify, and the carton marking for your market. Certificate excerpts are on this page; full documents are referenced in the quotation.
