Glycerin
ZIO
ZIO’s Glycerin (Glycerol) Liquid is a highly versatile, multi-grade ingredient designed for food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and industrial applications. This colorless, odorless, viscous liquid is known as a “universal ingredient” due to its exceptional moisturizing, lubricating, and non-toxic properties—making it a staple across industries. We offer three core grades to meet diverse needs: food grade glycerin, pharmaceutical grade glycerin, and industrial grade glycerin, each adhering to strict international quality standards. Packaging options include 25kg drums, 250kg drums, and 1200kg IBC tanks, with OEM packaging available for brand customization. Whether you’re enhancing food texture, boosting skincare hydration, or optimizing industrial processes, ZIO’s glycerin delivers consistent, reliable performance.

The primary active component is glycerol (chemical name: 1,2,3-propanetriol), with a molecular formula of C₃H₈O₃ and CAS No.: 56-81-5. Our glycerin maintains a minimum purity of ≥95% (industrial grade) and ≥99.5% (food/pharmaceutical grade), ensuring it is free from harmful impurities. This high-purity glycerol features three hydroxyl groups in its chemical structure, which drive its strong hygroscopic (moisture-attracting) ability—a key trait that makes it an effective humectant. It is fully soluble in water and alcohol, and its stable nature at room temperature ensures long-term usability without degradation.
As a premium humectant, it retains moisture in candies, cakes, beverages, and dairy products, preventing dryness and improving mouthfeel. It also acts as a solvent for flavors and colors, ensuring even distribution, and a mild sweetener that enhances taste without overpowering other ingredients. Additionally, it helps preserve food freshness, extending shelf life for processed goods.
As a classic moisturizer, it absorbs and locks in water, keeping skin soft, hydrated, and supple. It is a common addition to creams, lotions, toothpaste, and shampoo, where it also functions as an emollient to smooth skin and hair texture.
It serves as a critical excipient in tablet coatings, protecting active ingredients and enabling easy swallowing. It is also used as a solvent in cough syrups and a base for suppositories, thanks to its gentle, non-toxic properties.
In tobacco, paints, coatings, resins, paper, and textiles, it acts as a lubricant and plasticizer, improving product performance and process efficiency. For tobacco products, it works as a humectant to prevent excessive dryness, maintaining quality.
Storage: Keep in a sealed container, away from direct light, at room temperature. Avoid extreme heat or cold, as this may alter viscosity or stability.
Concentration Caution: Do not apply pure glycerin directly to skin—high concentrations may cause mild irritation. Follow recommended dilution guidelines for cosmetic use.
Allergy Check: Individuals with sensitive skin should perform a patch test before using cosmetic products with this glycerin. Discontinue use if redness, itching, or irritation occurs.
Food Safety: Only use food grade glycerin in edible products, and avoid cross-contamination with industrial grades to meet food safety regulations.
We supply food grade glycerin, pharmaceutical grade glycerin, and industrial grade glycerin, with purities of ≥95% (industrial) and ≥99.5% (food/pharmaceutical) to match application requirements.
It acts as a powerful moisturizer and humectant—drawing moisture from the air into the skin and locking it in to prevent dryness and keep skin hydrated.
Yes, our food grade glycerin meets international food safety standards and is safe for use in food, beverages, and low-fat processed goods.
