Spiga Nord > Glycerine and Polyglycerols for Industrial Sector
Modern industry is constantly seeking raw materials that combine high performance, sustainability, and production reliability. In this context, technical glycerine and polyglycerols are extremely versatile chemicals used in a wide variety of industrial processes thanks to their chemical and physical properties and their ability to serve as synthetic intermediates, functional agents, or components of complex formulations.
Spiga Nord develops and manufactures a complete range of technical glycerines, technical polyglycerols, and innovative circular economy solutions, providing the industry with raw materials that meet the needs of numerous manufacturing sectors.
Our solutions are used in the production of resins, polyurethanes, lubricants, technical fluids, speciality chemicals, composite materials, construction products, surface treatment, the textile industry, leather processing, detergent formulations, drilling muds, chemical synthesis, and numerous other industrial processes where reliability, quality, and continuity of supply are critical factors.
Whether it’s developing a new polymer, improving the performance of a resin, optimising a lubricant, or replacing a petrochemical-based raw material with a renewable alternative, Spiga Nord works closely with its customers to help them choose the solution best suited to their specific application needs, offering chemical expertise, manufacturing experience, and an innovation-driven approach.
The chemical industry is undergoing an unprecedented transformation. The growing focus on sustainability, reducing CO₂ emissions, replacing fossil-based raw materials, and adopting circular economy models are profoundly changing how products and processes are designed.
At the same time, manufacturers must continue to ensure high technical performance, process stability, supply continuity, and economic competitiveness. Each industrial application has different requirements for viscosity, colour, purity, water content, chemical properties, and behaviour during the production process.
For this reason, there is no such thing as a universal raw material; instead, it is necessary to choose the most suitable product based on the end use.
Spiga Nord meets these needs through a diverse range of products, including technical glycerines, polyglycerols, and new formulations developed by optimising its production processes, offering customers a partner capable of developing practical solutions for increasingly advanced industrial applications.
Spiga Nord’s technical glycerine offers a reliable solution for a wide range of industrial applications where versatility and consistent supply are required.
The lineup includes:
These products are used as raw materials, chemical intermediates, or functional components in numerous industrial processes, helping to improve performance, workability, and production efficiency.
Polyglycerols represent an evolution of glycerine and constitute an extremely versatile chemical platform for developing new industrial formulations.
Thanks to their molecular structure, they are used in the synthesis of resins, polymer systems, speciality lubricants, functional additives, drilling muds, advanced materials, and numerous other industrial processes.
The lineup includes:
Technical polyglycerols are available in crude (Technical Polyglycerine) and refined (Refined Technical Polyglycerine) forms.
Innovation also depends on increasingly efficient resource management.
For this reason, Spiga Nord has developed the SPIGAPUR line, a family of products created by repurposing specific streams from our production process and transforming them into bacterial feed solutions.
Glycerol-based products are widely used as external carbon sources. Their main function is to “feed” the denitrifying bacteria in anoxic tanks, enabling the conversion of nitrates into gaseous nitrogen.
The lineup includes:
These products help maximise the use of available resources, reduce waste, and offer the market high-performance solutions that are fully in line with the principles of the circular economy.
Thanks to the versatility of its product line, Spiga Nord serves customers in numerous industrial sectors.
The high flexibility of our product line also allows us to evaluate new applications together with our customers, developing customized solutions tailored to their specific process requirements.
Premium refined vegetable glycerol with a minimum purity of 99.7% (EP grade), complete with GMO-free, Kosher, and Halal certifications to meet strict global standards. Optimized for the cosmetic and personal care industries, it delivers outstanding humectant, emollient, and solubilizing properties within highly safe and ethically compliant formulations.
Refined technical-grade glycerol provided as an 86.5% aqueous solution, engineered for industrial applications requiring lower viscosity. It acts as a highly efficient additive for inks, anti-freeze formulations, tobacco moisture retention, and specialized lubricants used in polymer and textile manufacturing processes.
Highly concentrated refined technical glycerol (≥99.5%) tailored for demanding industrial applications. Renowned for its strong thermal stability, low volatility, and high hygroscopicity, it functions as a superior plasticizer, industrial lubricant, anti-freeze agent, and essential raw material for synthesizing resins and technical fluids.
Technical-grade glycerol boasting a concentration above 88% (averaging around 95%). This cost-effective and highly versatile product is perfectly suited for heavy industrial uses, finding extensive application in drilling muds, technical detergents, construction additives, and a wide array of basic chemical syntheses.
