The factory produces around 12 million crayons a day, and Derballa's pictures capture just how much work goes into creating them.

Powdered pigment is then put into the mix to create a colour, and then a rotary mold table like this one shapes the coloured paraffin into wax. Excess wax is captured by a scraper blade and re-used to make more crayons.
