Frequent Uses

Food and drink industry
A common additive in many food and drink formulations due to its various properties. Its water binding properties help preserve cakes and biscuits, preventing them from drying. Its viscous texture can add thickness and smoothness to liquids.

Soap making
Glycerol is a common ingredient in many soaps, additionally soapmaking is also a way to produce glycerol via saponification.

Cosmetics
Regularly used in moisturisers, lotions, shampoos and conditioners due to its water attracting and retaining properties, meaning glycerol is a humectant.

Pharmaceuticals
Used as a sweetener but also as an excipient to carry the active ingredients.

Vapes and E-cigs
