Sucragel XL is a 100% natural oil thickening agent that transforms liquid oils into viscous gels at usage rates as low as 15%. This COSMOS-approved gelling agent requires no additional stabilisers and works effectively in cold process formulations.

About Sucragel XL

This complete oil gelling system eliminates the complexity of traditional oil thickening methods. Unlike conventional thickeners that require multiple components or heated processing, Sucragel XL provides immediate viscosity enhancement through a simple incorporation process. The result is a stable, clear-to-translucent gel that maintains the beneficial properties of your base oils.
