About Glycerine ..

Glycerol (/lsrl/)[6] is a simple triol compound. It is a colorless, odorless, viscous liquid that is sweet-tasting and non-toxic. The glycerol backbone is found in lipids known as glycerides. It is also widely used as a sweetener in the food industry and as a humectant in pharmaceutical formulations. Because of its three hydroxyl groups, glycerol is miscible with water and is hygroscopic in nature.[7]

High-Purity Versatility

With a minimum purity of 99.5%, our glycerine meets stringent standards for pharmaceutical, food, and technical applications. Its clear, viscous nature and compatibility with numerous solvents allow seamless integration into a wide array of products, ensuring reliable performance whether used as a humectant, solvent, lubricant, or emulsifier.

Safe and Convenient Packaging

Glycerine is delivered in robust packaging options including plastic drums, IBC tanks, and bulk tankers to maintain product integrity and facilitate safe transport. Its shelf life extends up to 24 months when stored properly in tightly closed containers within cool, dry, well-ventilated areas.

Wide-Ranging Applications

Renowned for its use in pharmaceuticals, foods, cosmetics, and chemical formulations, glycerine's non-hazardous nature and sweet taste make it a prime choice for humectants, lubricants, and sweeteners. Its chemical stability and low water content enhance performance across numerous industries.
