Product Overview

Glycerin USP (glycerol) is a colourless, odourless, viscous polyol meeting United States Pharmacopeia standards. If you’ve been sourcing glycerin for your production line, you already know how much the grade and purity matter. A substandard batch doesn’t just affect quality – it can shut down a run. At ISL Chemicals, we supply glycerine that’s consistently tested for specific gravity and purity before it ever leaves our warehouse.
We stock both USP pharmaceutical grade and industrial grade glycerin, giving manufacturers the flexibility to source from one trusted supplier regardless of the application. Whether you’re in leather finishing, cosmetics production, soap manufacturing, or pharmaceutical intermediates – we have the right grade in the right quantity.
