Glycolic Acid. Full Range, Global Supply.
Purity you can verify. Consistency you can count on.
Meet PureTech Scientific at SEPAWA Congress
Consistency Formulators Can Verify, Every Time
PureTech Scientific produces glycolic acid on the only continuous, single-step production process in the industry, so the batch you get in December matches the one you validated in June. At SEPAWA, our team is focused on two things European formulators ask us about most: cosmetic-grade Glypure® for personal care, and Glyclean® D for one-step clean-and-disinfect chemistry.
Why Formulators Choose PureTech Scientific
Solutions & Sustainability For Your Market
- Ingredient Expertise: Multiple high-purity glycolic acid grades engineered for performance.
- Personal Care - Glypure®: Purpose-built grades (70, 70 ULTRA, 99, GL) for skin, hair, and scalp formulations; Glypure GL is a lower-irritation, time-release form of glycolic acid.
- Antipathogen & Disinfection - Glyclean® D: One-step clean-and-disinfect chemistry - the only supplier supporting glycolic acid as an active biocide under EU/GB BPR Article 95, with broad-spectrum efficacy against bacteria, fungi, and viruses.
- Nature-identical, readily biodegradable chemistry: 89.6% biodegradable in 7 days per OECD 301D, 78% at day 11 per OECD 301B.
Confidence in Our Products
- Every product we ship is held to a documented, non-detect impurity standard: our continuous, single-step process verifies dichloroacetic acid (DCA) to a non-detect level (LOQ 5.40 ppb), not an unavoidable trace found in the batch chloroacetic-acid routes used across most of the industry.
- Purity measured against the full regulatory and quality standard: every lot is tracked against a documented sales specification customers can verify.
Confidence in Our Compliance
- PureTech is a REACH Lead Registrant for glycolic acid, helping customers move faster.
- Glyclean® D is the only glycolic acid listed as an active biocide under Article 95 of both the EU and GB Biocidal Products Regulation (BPR), with documented broad-spectrum efficacy against bacteria, viruses, and fungi.
- Backed by active U.S. EPA registrations (Reg. Nos. 71654-31, 71654-30, 71654-5) for customers who need coverage beyond the EU.
Confidence in Our Partnership
- A global distribution network, with locally stocked EU inventory through a dedicated Antwerp logistics point – providing customers the confidence that supply can be consistently met.
- Beyond a drum of acid: our Dayton, TN site offers custom reaction chemistry and toll manufacturing
