What Is Glycol?

Glycol is an antifreeze. There are two main types of glycol: propylene and ethylene. In food applications propylene glycol is used as it is non-toxic. Ethylene glycol is typically used in industrial type applications. With glycol chillers we use propylene because it’s non toxic and it has inhibitors which helps prevent any microfilm build-up or rust in the piping system.
