Global Glycerin Competitive Landscape Professional Research Report 2025

Research Summary

Glycerin, also known as glycerol, is a colorless, odorless, and sweet-tasting liquid that belongs to the alcohol family of organic compounds. It is a trihydric alcohol, meaning it contains three hydroxyl (OH) groups. Glycerin is widely used in various industries, including food and pharmaceuticals, due to its versatile properties. It is hygroscopic, meaning it attracts and holds water, making it a common ingredient in moisturizers, lotions, and skincare products. Glycerin is also utilized in the food industry as a sweetener, humectant, and solvent. In pharmaceuticals, it is a component of various formulations, acting as a base for certain medications. Additionally, glycerin has applications in the production of cosmetics, personal care items, and as an ingredient in the creation of some types of soap. Its ability to dissolve in both water and alcohol, coupled with its non-toxic nature, makes glycerin a valuable and multifunctional compound in a range of consumer and industrial products.
