The global Glycerine market stood at approximately 1000 thousand tonnes in 2021 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.49% during the forecast period until 2030. The market is anticipated to grow further by 4.18% in 2022 due to expanding demand for Glycerine in the Pharmaceutical Industry.

Glycerine is a natural substance with a sweet taste. It is a thick liquid and is colorless, odorless, and non-toxic. Triglycerides, esters of glycerol with long-chain carboxylic acids, are the most commonly used raw material for synthesizing glycerol. Plant and animal sources generally contain triglycerides. Glycerine is synthesized when these triglycerides are either hydrolyzed, transesterified, or saponified. Furthermore, Glycerine can also be synthesized by a variety of propene-based processes.

Glycerine is widely utilized in the food and beverage industries as a sweetener. Furthermore, it is employed as an emollient in medicinal and cosmetic formulations. Due to the hydroxyl groups, Glycerine has water-absorbing properties. Glycerine is antibacterial and antiviral qualities. It is frequently used in cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and personal care preparations to improve the smoothness and suppleness of the skin and heal skin damage. Glycerine is employed in the pharmaceutical industry for allergen immunotherapies, cough syrups, elixirs and expectorants, glycerine soaps, and water-based personal lubricants. The most popular remedy for chronic angina, the chest discomfort caused by heart disease, is nitroglycerin. By using topical pure or pure glycerol, psoriasis, wounds, cuts, scars, rashes, bedsores, and blisters can be treated. Nitro-glycerine is one of the most common treatments for treating chronic angina, chest pain, and heart disease.

The market drivers of the global Glycerine market are the healthcare, cosmetic, and medical industry.
