The food industry relies on a variety of ingredients to ensure product quality, safety, and consumer appeal. Among these, Propylene Glycol (1,2-Propanediol, CAS 57-55-6) is a widely recognized and utilized food additive, often identified by its E-number E1520. At NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD., we supply high-purity 1,2-Propanediol that meets the rigorous demands of food manufacturers.

One of the primary functions of propylene glycol in food is its role as a humectant. Its ability to attract and retain moisture helps to keep products like baked goods, confectionery, and processed meats from drying out, thus preserving their texture and freshness. This property is crucial for maintaining the palatability and shelf life of a wide range of food items. As a food-grade solvent, it is also instrumental in dissolving and dispersing flavors and colors evenly throughout food products, ensuring consistent taste and appearance.

Furthermore, 1,2-Propanediol serves as a carrier for food flavorings and extracts, allowing for efficient incorporation into formulations. Its low toxicity and stability also make it a safe and effective preservative in certain applications, preventing spoilage and extending product viability. Understanding the applications of 1,2-Propanediol in food allows manufacturers to optimize their products for both quality and consumer satisfaction.

Sourcing reliable 1,2-Propanediol is paramount for food safety and product integrity.
