Food Grade Propylene Glycol MPG Supplier, CAS 57-55-6

Propylene glycol MPG candidate for overseas buyers checking CAS 57-55-6 supply in food grade, USP/FCC or related specification formats. Buyer review should focus on current COA values, grade alignment, heavy metals limits, moisture or loss-on-drying data, packing configuration, export documents, and destination-market acceptance before RFQ confirmation.

  • Destination-market import documents before supplier matching
Package and route

Packing notes

  • Quoted packing includes 215 kg HDPE drum.
  • Quoted container loading reference: 80 drums per 20 ft FCL.
  • 1000 kg IBC packing is also referenced.
  • Confirm palletization, drum net/gross weight, seal type, lot marking, and container stuffing photos before shipment.

Applications and sourcing options

Check whether this product fits the buyer's actual application.

Clear application, grade, package, and document notes help separate real sourcing demand from a vague price check.

Use context

Common applications

  • Humectant or solvent applications where food-grade propylene glycol is permitted by local rules
  • Carrier use for flavors, colors, or ingredient blends subject to buyer specification
  • Moisture-retention applications in food processing where regulatory acceptance is confirmed by the buyer
  • Personal care, cosmetics, or industrial formulations requiring MPG grade verification
  • Distributor stock programs requiring drum or IBC packing and complete export document sets
How we compare

Sourcing options

  • 215 kg HDPE drum FCL order
  • 1000 kg IBC order
  • USP/FCC food grade specification review
  • Industrial grade inquiry where food-grade documents are not required
  • Sample request before container order
  • Third-party inspection before shipment
Human review

Compliance notes

  • Request a recent batch COA matching CAS 57-55-6, grade, assay, moisture or loss on drying, acidity or pH, color, heavy metals, and any food-grade impurity limits required by the buyer.
  • Supplier page references Commercial Invoice, Packing List, COA, FORM E Certificate of Origin, Health Certificate, Bill of Lading, and REACH report availability; confirm which documents are available for the destination country and shipment route.
  • Certification references include ISO, HACCP, ISO 22000, Halal, Kosher, FDA GRAS, USP-NF, EP, and BP; request current certificates and verify scope, issuing body, expiry date, and product coverage.
  • The page describes the product as non-hazardous; buyers should still request SDS, transport classification, and carrier acceptance confirmation for the specific packing and route.
  • Check destination-specific food additive, excipient, or industrial-use registration requirements with local compliance teams before purchase.
  • Do not rely on marketplace labels alone for food, pharmaceutical, or regulated-use acceptance; verify batch documentation and intended-use suitability.
