Polyglycerol, an ingredient of natural origin, is now at the centre of attention for those developing safe, sustainable, and high-performance products in the cosmetic, food, and fine chemical sectors. Its versatile structure and sourcing from renewable raw materials make it an increasingly common choice in modern formulations that require stability, solubility, and compatibility.
💧 From Natural Origin to Technical Performance
Polyglycerol is obtained through the polymerization of glycerine of natural origin, and is available in different grades (PG-3, PG-6, PG-10…) depending on the intended application.
It is water-soluble, stable, well-tolerated, and highly compatible with emulsions, oral solutions, leave-on cosmetics, and surfactants. Additionally, it improves the texture and resilience of many formulations, even at low concentrations.
🌱 Conscious Manufacturing: Natural Origin, Vegan, and GMO-Free
Spiga Nord selects raw materials exclusively of natural origin, traceable and GMO-free, sourced from controlled supply chains.
This approach complies with regulatory standards and meets the growing demand for transparency and responsible manufacturing.
🔬 Fields of Application
• Cosmetics:
Used as an emollient, humectant, and co-emulsifier, it enhances texture and stability in face creams, gentle cleansers, lip balms, and baby care products.
• Food and fine chemicals:
Polyglycerol is part of the composition of polyglycerol esters used as food emulsifiers, technical lubricants, bio-based protective coatings, and sustainable packaging solutions.
Polyglycerol is often not visible on the label, yet it is essential for ensuring formulation stability and performance. Its natural origin makes it compatible with clean-label and vegan-friendly trends.
