Glycerin
ZIO
Glycerin (also known as Glycerol) is a colorless, odorless, viscous liquid widely used in food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, personal care, and industrial fields. Known as a “universal ingredient,” glycerin is valued for its excellent moisturizing, lubricating, and non-toxic properties.
In the food industry, glycerin acts as a humectant, thickener, and solvent, commonly used in candies, cakes, beverages, and dairy products to retain moisture and improve texture.
In cosmetics and personal care products, it is a classic moisturizing ingredient, helping the skin absorb and lock in water for softness and hydration.
In pharmaceuticals, glycerin is widely used in tablet coatings, cough syrups, and suppositories.
It also finds applications in tobacco, paints, coatings, resins, paper, and textiles.
