About Glycamed® 99.7 Kosher
1,2,3-Propantriol, 1,2,3-Trihydroxyproan
GLACONCHEMIE produces, among other things, glycerine exclusively from raw materials of vegetable origin. In the company’s factory with state-of-the-art technology, the by-products from the biodiesel production are refined and processed into high-quality basic and raw materials. Beside methanol, potassium sulphate and fatty acids, this especially includes the socalled pharma glycerines.
GLACONCHEMIE is marketing pharmaceutical glycerine under the trade name Glycamed® with a concentration of 99.7 %. As one of few suppliers in Germany, we also produce glycerine with a concentration of 86.5 %, which is commonly required in various applications, especially in the cosmetics industry.
Glycamed® serves as a basic material for the production of crèmes, salves and toothpaste and is also employed in the food industry (E 422) and for pharmaceutical products.
