Global Food Grade Glycerin Competitive Landscape Professional Research Report 2025

Research Summary

Food-grade glycerin, also known as glycerol, is a colorless, odorless, and sweet-tasting liquid that is derived from various plant or animal fats through a process called hydrolysis. It is recognized as safe for consumption and is widely used in the food industry for a variety of applications. Food-grade glycerin serves as a humectant, meaning it helps retain moisture, making it valuable in the production of numerous food products. It is commonly used in confections, baked goods, dairy products, and beverages to improve texture, moistness, and shelf life. Glycerin can also act as a solvent for food colors, aiding in their dispersion in applications such as icing and fondant. Its versatility and safety make food-grade glycerin a common ingredient in the food industry, contributing to both the functional and sensory aspects of a wide range of food products.
