Glyceryl Caprate (GMC) – Multifunctional Active Ingredient for Natural Cosmetics & Emulsion Stabilization
 
Glyceryl Caprate (GMC) is a versatile, skin-friendly active ingredient that is ideal for modern natural cosmetics formulations. With its moisture-regulating, wetting, co-emulsifying, and moisturizing properties, it supports the development of high-quality skin care products.
 
Thanks to its pronounced antimicrobial effect against bacteria and yeasts, Glyceryl Caprate is particularly effective for the biological stabilization of W/O (water-in-oil) emulsions. At the same time, the ingredient is excellent as a natural deodorant active ingredient that reduces odor-causing microorganisms.
 
The waxy solid can be processed flexibly: It can be melted into the oil phase or incorporated into the water phase at approximately 40 °C. This versatility makes glyceryl caprate an indispensable raw material for DIY cosmetics and professional formulations.
 
Another advantage:
 
Glyceryl caprate is derived exclusively from renewable raw materials and meets the requirements for natural and sustainable cosmetics.
