Product Directory & Specifications
Our products are based on natural substrates, green and environmentally friendly. We specialize in producing various types of polyglycerol, glycerol fatty acid esters, and polyglycerol fatty acid esters.
Polyglycerols
Obtained by polymerization of natural plant-derived glycerol. Featuring excellent moisturizing and water-locking properties. Ideal for toners, essences, masks, and mild baby care products.
- Polyglycerol-2
- Polyglycerol-3
- Polyglycerol-4
- Polyglycerol-6
- Polyglycerol-10 (Special Recommendation: Cage decacyclic structure)
Glyceryl Fatty Acid Esters
Functional products synthesized from vegetable-based glycerol and fatty acids. Widely used as emulsifiers, emollients, and fat-improving agents in cosmetic creams and lotions.
- Glyceryl Oleate (W/O Emulsifier, Silicone compatible)
- Glyceryl Caprylate (Natural preservative booster)
- Glyceryl Laurate / Caprate
- Glyceryl Stearate / Palmitate / Myristate
Polyglyceryl Fatty Acid Esters
PEG-free, highly biodegradable surfactants with a wide HLB range (2 to 18). Outstanding emulsifying, dispersing, stabilizing, and foaming capabilities.
- Polyglyceryl Caprylate / Caprate (PG-2, PG-3, PG-6, PG-10)
- Polyglyceryl Laurate / Myristate
- Polyglyceryl Palmitate / Oleate
- Polyglyceryl Stearate / Isostearate

Core Application Scenarios & Formulation Advantages
Discover how our polyglycerol esters replace petrochemical ingredients, improve sensory properties, and optimize emulsion stability.
1. Silicone Oil Replacement & Skin Barrier Repair
Modern consumers demand green, silicone-free formulations without sacrificing the light, silky sensory experience of cyclopentasiloxane (D5). Our Polyglyceryl-3 Stearate and Polyglyceryl-6 Stearate act as climate-adaptive emulsifiers. They automatically adapt to environmental humidity and seasons, offering a low residual film and non-greasy feel. In hair care, they control static and keep the hair surface smooth without build-up. In skin care, they mimic the skin's natural lipid structure, restoring the epidermal barrier while delivering a lightweight skin feel.
2. Advanced Cleansing Oils & Self-Emulsifying Gels
For makeup removers, swift emulsification and zero grease residue are critical. Our Polyglyceryl-10 Oleate and Polyglyceryl-2 Caprate enable gel-to-oil transformations. When massaged onto dry skin, they dissolve waterproof makeup. Upon rinsing, they instantly emulsify into a milky white dispersion, leaving the skin refreshed and hydrated. The multi-molecular glycerol structure provides a moisturizing post-wash effect, preventing the tight skin sensation common with harsh surfactants.
3. Preservative-Free claims & Antimicrobial Synergy
Reducing traditional preservatives (like parabens or phenoxyethanol) is a major trend. Our Glycerol Caprylate acts as a natural preservative and co-emulsifier. It disrupts the cell membranes of bacteria and fungi, providing strong antimicrobial efficacy while remaining mild on the skin. When combined with Polyglyceryl-3 Caprylate, it forms a robust self-preserving system in O/W and W/O creams, ensuring product safety and stability in green formulations.
4. Pigment Dispersion & Mineral Sunscreen Stabilization
Inorganic UV filters (ZnO, TiO2) and color pigments tend to agglomerate, resulting in uneven application and a white cast. Our Polyglyceryl-3 Polyricinoleate features a unique triangular three-dimensional molecular structure derived from vegetable glycerin and castor oil. The wide lipophilic tail and narrow hydrophilic head produce smaller, highly stable emulsion droplets. This structure ensures excellent dispersion of pigments in sunscreens, foundations, and lipsticks, providing water resistance and a non-sticky finish.
