GMS (Glyceryl Stearate) Supplier in Pakistan – SE & AS Grades

The Backbone of Creams & Lotions

In cosmetic manufacturing, the stability of an emulsion is the difference between a successful product and a failed batch. GMS (Glyceryl Stearate) is the most widely used emulsifier in the world, known for giving creams their body, opacity, and smooth skin feel. At Cosmo Chem, we understand that different formulations require different grades. Whether you need standard SE or specialized AS, we are your reliable partner. We are committed to providing the best GMS (Glyceryl Stearate) price in Pakistan, helping local brands produce high-quality cosmetics efficiently.

What is GMS (Glyceryl Stearate)?

GMS is a solid, waxy compound derived from vegetable oils (usually palm or soy). It typically comes in the form of white beads or flakes.

We supply two main grades:

1. GMS SE (Self-Emulsifying): Contains a small amount of soap (Potassium Stearate). It emulsifies water and oil easily on its own. This is the standard choice for 90% of lotions and creams.

2. GMS AS (Acid Stable): Free from soaps. It is designed for low pH formulations (like Vitamin C creams or Alpha Hydroxy Acid products) where standard GMS might break down or separate.

Applications in Cosmetics & Industry

Our GMS raw material is a versatile ingredient used across the personal care industry:

• Moisturizing Lotions: It blends oil and water while forming a protective barrier on the skin to reduce moisture loss.

• Heavy Creams & Body Butters: Used as a thickener to give products a rich, stiff consistency.

• Hair Conditioners: Provides “slip” and softness to hair strands, making it a key ingredient in hair care.

• Face Washes: Used in cream-based cleansers to provide a pearlescent look and creamy foam.

Functional Benefits & Performance

Why is GMS indispensable for formulators?

• Emulsification: It lowers the surface tension between oil and water, keeping them mixed permanently.

• Opacifier: It turns transparent mixtures into a professional, opaque white cream.

• Skin Conditioning: It makes the skin feel soft and smooth (emollient) without being greasy.

• Stabilizer: It prevents the product from separating into oil and water layers during storage.

GMS (Glyceryl Stearate) Price in Pakistan

For manufacturers, raw material cost control is vital. The GMS (Glyceryl Stearate) price fluctuates based on the palm oil market and import duties. Cosmo Chem imports directly from major global producers to secure the best rates. By bypassing small traders, we offer a wholesale price structure that is significantly lower than the retail market, specifically tailored for B2B buyers and factories.

5️⃣ FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)

1. What is the current GMS (Glyceryl Stearate) price per kg?

Prices vary based on the grade (SE vs. AS) and import costs. However, Cosmo Chem promises wholesale rates. Contact us on WhatsApp for the latest bulk price list.

2. What is the difference between GMS SE and GMS AS?

GMS SE (Self-Emulsifying) contains soap and is best for standard neutral creams. GMS AS (Acid Stable) is soap-free and must be used for acidic products (like Vitamin C serums) or with a co-emulsifier.

3. Can I use GMS alone as an emulsifier?

GMS SE can form a stable emulsion on its own in simple formulas. However, for professional stability, it is best paired with a co-emulsifier like Cetyl Alcohol or Ceteareth-20.

4. What is the melting point of GMS?

GMS typically melts between 58°C and 60°C. It should be added to your oil phase and heated until completely melted before mixing with water.
