Lanolin Alcohol SSR EP is the super refined unsaponifiable fraction of lanolin comprising a mixture of Cholesterol, Lanosterol, Agnosterol and their Di-hydro Derivatives plus straight and branched chain Aliphatic Alcohols.

Manufactured under GMP, Lanolin Alcohol SSR EP is de-odorized and fully complies with the current European Pharmacopeia.

Lanolin Alcohol SSR EP is initially produced as a standard lanolin alcohol resulting from the alkaline hydrolysis of wool grease. It is the final product of a complex molecular distillation matrix to remove components affecting water absorption properties and also to significantly increase the cholesterol content.

Lanolin Alcohol SSR EP is a light yellow waxy solid being used for both W/O and O/W emulsions. It is used in many applications including skin creams, sport creams, baby creams.

Lanolin Alcohol SSR EP offers noticeable benefits in terms of:

Increased cholesterol content
Pale color
Excellent water absorption properties e Transdermal delivery of active ingredients
Being used in topical products for cutaneous infections
Antimicrobial and disinfectant properties
Now available in pastilles
