What It Is

Glycerine, also known as glycerol, is a clear, odorless, sweet-tasting liquid derived from plants and animals. It acts as a humectant, attracting water to the surface. Glycerine is used in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics to protect products from drying out.

Chemical Properties

Molecular Formula: C₃H₈O₃
Synonyms: Glycerol, 1,2,3-Propanetriol

Why We Use It

In softgel formulation, glycerine is used to soften the bovine gelatin. It makes the capsule flexible without affecting its stability or integrity. Additionally, it gives softgel its easy-to-swallow texture, improving mouthfeel during administration.

Where to Find It

Naturally, glycerine is extracted from various vegetable oils, including coconut, palm, and soybean. It is also found in beef and mutton fat. Commercially, glycerine is derived from petroleum and used in skincare products, foods, and pharmaceuticals.

The Wellness Extract Edge

We use pharmaceutical-grade, vegetable-derived glycerine, ensuring its purity and non-toxicity. This is 100% safe for long-term use and consumption by humans.
