...Αν διαβάζω σωσα την ανάλυση, λέει total impurities 0.03% με ελάχιστο όριο το 0.05%. Άρα η δικιά μου είναι 99.7%....
Το 0.03 σημαίνει όχι 99.7, αλλά 99.97 καθαρότητα που σημαίνει τέλεια.

I'm on a mission to find the highest purity VG and PG in the entire world. To my understanding, there are only a few places (in America) that produce Glycerine (not sure about PG, but I suspect it's the same deal there).
The only (American) companies that I know for sure that produce it are:
Dow Chemical. Optim is the trademark name for their highest purity Glycerine, which is completely synthetic. It is 99.7% USP/EP/Kosher/Halol grade and is approved for inhalation according to their website. It is made in a plant in Stade, Germany.
P&G (Proctor and Gamble). They make several grades of Glycerine. Superol, Superol-NK, MOON OU, and Star. It is produced domestically in a plant in Cincinnati, OH. I will give a breakdown of their different grades below:
Superol KPO is their highest grade. It has all the certs --USP/EP/Kosher/Halal/non-GMO/100% vegetable sourced. Basically, the best of the best for purity and for people who need non-GMO, Kosher/Halal and European specifications.
Superol NK is exactly the same in purity (99.7%) as Superol KPO, but may not be sourced from vegetables. It is not Kosher and not EP certified.
MOON OU - It is also 99.7% USP/Kosher, but it is NOT Halal, non-GMO or EP certified.
STAR -- It is 96% pure, with the rest being purified water. They do this for people who need a less viscous (thick) VG. It is not USP (because of the added water) but is Kosher certified.
HUMCO. This is who makes Wal-Mart, CVS, Rite-Aid, Walgreens Glycerine (99.5% USP). It is packaged all in the same place and has different labels slapped on the bottle. It is then shipped to these chain stores. So, all of these retail stores get it from HUMCO.
ADM (Archer Daniels Midland) ADM is a massive multinational agricultural company that produces all sorts of stuff for the food industry, agriculture (animal feed), and biodiesel. They are the largest biodiesel producer in the world. They are part of "Big Ag." They are to agriculture and food processing what Wal-Mart is to retail. In any case, they produce various grades of glycerin, including USP/Kosher 99.7%. Some sellers of Amazon get their VG directly from an ADM distributor.
Cargill (aka Cargill and Ashland). A company very similar in scope to ADM. They produce a lot of agricultural stuff, food ingredients, chemicals, pharmaceutical supplies, animal feed, etc. They are a large multinational company like Dow and ADM. Like ADM, they are a major player in the biodiesel industry and can also be considered "Big Ag." If ADM is the Wal-Mart of agriculture, then Cargill is Target, Sears, Kmart all rolled into one (i.e. a close second -- if not bigger -- it depends on the year). They produce Glycerine in two factories in Iowa and Missouri, but have hundreds of factories/processing plants in North America alone. Source
I see a lot of places online that sell "99.7 USP/Kosher" but they never says where they source it. I am positive companies like Essential Depot and Bulk Apocethary are not back there in a lab somewhere making this stuff. No, they are buying it in bulk from somewhere. And I'd like to know where. Has anyone ever asked?
These "Big Chemical" companies wont sell to little guys like us. They will only sell "tons" according to them. And since these chemicals are no doubt packaged and repackaged a number of times before it gets into our hands, it is impossible to tell where it came from (or if it really is even USP). "
