PGPR (Polyglycerol polyricinoleate)

Polyglycerol polyricinoleate (PGPR) is a specialized emulsifier used primarily in chocolate and confectionery applications. Its main role? Reducing viscosity so chocolate flows easily during molding, enrobing, and coating. PGPR works alongside lecithin to improve processing efficiency without compromising taste or texture. 

By lowering the yield value of chocolate, PGPR helps manufacturers achieve smooth, uniform coatings and fillings while reducing the need for excess cocoa butter. This makes it a cost-effective solution for chocolate makers who want consistent performance and high-quality results. 

PGPR is essential for: 

• Chocolate Manufacturers – For molding, enrobing, and coating where flow properties matter. 

• Confectionery Producers – Used in fillings, coatings, and specialty chocolate products to ensure smooth texture and easy processing. 

• Brands and Retailers – Ideal for packaged chocolate and confectionery products that need consistent quality and appearance. 

• Form – Available in liquid form for easy incorporation into chocolate masses. 

• Grade – Offered in standard food-grade specifications optimized for confectionery applications. 

• Source and Processing – Produced from polyglycerol and ricinoleic acid (from castor oil), meeting strict food-grade standards. 

• Packaging Format – Bulk totes or drums are standard, with options to fit your production requirements. 

• Quantity – Minimum order quantities apply. Let’s review your project and confirm the best fit.
