POPY TRADE Propylene Glycol PG E1520 99,5%

Propylene Glycol PG E1520 99.5% — What's Inside

PG E1520 is a colourless and odourless substance with 99.5% purity in Ph. Eur./USP grade. It is used as a carrier and solvent for flavouring agents: essential oils, water-soluble and fat-soluble flavours dissolve evenly in it without separating. The result is a clear, homogeneous solution — the taste stays exactly as you mixed it. In practice, that means fewer surprises when blending and consistent results from batch to batch.

Use in Foods & Beverages

Propylene Glycol is used in foods and beverages as a flavour carrier, in cosmetics and personal care, and in pharmacy. In everyday blending you will mainly use it as a carrier for your Plant Glycerin VG E422 base or for your own flavour mixes. It makes flavours easy to dose precisely and helps keep your mixes consistent over time.

How It Works: Practical Check

A quick everyday scenario: you want to transfer a vanilla flavour into a yoghurt-quark mix. Measure out the flavour, add the PG, give it a short shake — the mix stays clear and stirs through evenly, with no grease spots or separation. When baking, add the mix to the fluid phase of your recipe so the taste distributes through the dough. Dosage: only small amounts are needed, often in the low single-digit percent range of the total volume. A food-grade dosing pipette makes this precise to measure. That way the 100 ml bottle covers numerous mixes.

Purity & Quality

With 99.5% purity, the Propylene Glycol meets the requirements of the EU food additive regulation for E1520 as well as the standards of the European Pharmacopoeia (Ph. Eur.). The substance is free of additives, preservatives and colourants. Filling is done in food-grade packaging — the bottle protects the contents from light and contamination. Storage: dry, protected from light and out of reach of children. Unopened, it remains stable for a long time; once opened, keep it cool and dry. If you need more: the 300 ml bottle of Propylene Glycol is worth it once your regular demand grows.

Who This Raw Material Suits

This raw material suits anyone who blends their own flavour mixes: from simple syrup bases for beverages to dessert flavours and creative baking ideas. The application is straightforward and requires no prior knowledge — measure, work in, shake. If you already work with flavour concentrate from POPY TRADE Shake & Enjoy Strawberry & Kiwi, the matching carrier for your next mix is right next door. Start small, experiment, scale up — the 100 ml is the ideal entry point.
