What is it?

Butylene Glycol is a type of clear, odorless, natural alcohol that has two hydroxyl groups, which give it humectant and stabilizing properties. Unlike conventional production methods, our process starts with renewable plant sugars. An elegant, one-step fermentation process converts renewable sugars into a high purity, natural butylene glycol. This ingredient contributes to the texture, stability, and performance of our formulations.
