Glycerine in Kenya

Product Overview

Glycerine, also known as Glycerol, is a clear, colourless, odourless, and viscous liquid widely used across the cosmetic, pharmaceutical, food, personal care, chemical, and industrial sectors. It is valued for its excellent humectant, moisturizing, lubricating, and solvent properties, making it one of the most versatile raw materials in modern manufacturing.

Glycerine helps retain moisture, improve product texture, enhance stability, and extend shelf life in numerous formulations. Because it is highly soluble in water and alcohol, non-toxic, and biodegradable, it is suitable for a wide range of applications, from skincare products and medicines to food processing and industrial manufacturing.

At Dalit Solutions, we supply premium-quality Glycerine to cosmetic manufacturers, pharmaceutical companies, food processors, soap manufacturers, chemical industries, laboratories, and other businesses requiring reliable, high-purity glycerine.
