    Hello I found PG in Srichand website just now,But there is not VG. Seems to be ok if I buy Glycerine instead of VG. To make sure,Did you guys also buy it?

    As far as I know its the same thing, they just dont call it vegetable Glycerin in Thailand. Saying that, the stuff i bought before did say food grade rather than pharmaceutical grade.

    I'm sure one of the other members could confirm or deny this.

    Worth asking them if its vegetable glycerine. Chemipan used to sell theirs as Vegetable Glycerine but then changed to just "Glycerine" when asked they confirmed it was the same, looked/tasted the same as when it was labeled VG. Gone through a litre of it since they changed the name. Can't tell the difference and still waiting for that third arm to sprout. Worth checking but sure you'd be fine. Wouldn't be surprised if all these sites get their stuff from the same source then just rebottle it, TiT after all :vaping:

    Glycerin, Glycerol and Vegetable Glycerine are the same things.
    Srichand is a big supplier for all pharmacies and laboratories here in Thailand.
    As far, the best option for e-liquide.
    But they are often running out of stock.
    I am living just nearby the factory so i went to survey and got all those information

    vape on!!!

    Hello New Member Here. I just ordered PG and VG from Srichand will let you know how it goes. Ordered from Chemipan last time and all went well but didn't like the taste of the VG.

    What's wrong with it? Always tasted clean to me, curious if there's a new batch?

    It seemed to take away from my flavorings and it seemed like it was too sweet. It might have been just me but I got this batch back in Dec. 2016 but it was kept in the fridge. Might be just me I don't know or it could have been my flavoring. Everything I had used before was brought in from the US and purchased from Freedom Smokes.

    Interesting, never seemed to have any problems with it although its been the only VG I've used. Curious to see if Srichand is any better. Out of PG so I think I'll make an order from them too in the next week or so

    PG from Srichand is imported from Korea.
    I don't have problems with srichand glycerine.
    It looks that there is 2 kinds of VG.
    last time in France I order BIO "biologic": wrong or not? some feedback said one was sweeter than the other?
    even now changing the names" they sell 2 mix 50/50 : base or base vegetale(vegetal)
    Base 50PG / 50VG - Solubarome

    Ok, so after realising that Srichand is almost double the price for half the amount Chemipan give you I decided to look into it further.:chinrub:

    Today I received COAs from both companies for their glycerin, surprise surprise they're almost exactly identical which further fuels my suspicion that all these companies buy it from the same source. At the end of the day they seem to have been primarily tested using USP 37 methods. There is no indication to suggest either of these would taste different. Chemipan lists the total organic impurities at less than 1 part per million, Srichand leaves this out (doesn't make it better/worse though).

    Here's the link to them Imgur: The most awesome images on the Internet

    Chemipan's Glycerin is 99.91% pure
    Srichand's list theirs as 99.9%.

    They're the same, I highly doubt that .01% makes a difference. There is no reason why one would be better than the other, any differences are more likely due to conditions/contaminants (like putting it into an old juice bottle). I too have experienced a sweet taste when vaping pure glycerin and a 70/30 unflavoured base - because glycerine is naturally sweet. The more (15%+) concentrate I use, the more the taste disappears. The sweetness is more prominent when mixing at sub-10% concentrate levels, it is not present in commercial juices because most of them contain 15%+. Same way you'd taste more coke with half a shot of liquor as opposed to a full shot.

    Bottom line; Buy whatever you want, believe what you want. I for one will keep buying Chemipan, I don't think glass bottles and fancy stickers justify the big price difference. I am STILL waiting for that third leg to sprout :very good:

    I will buy Chemipan next time. I only bought Srichand this time because I wanted to keep the glass bottles for juice. Due to the cost difference I expect every local juice maker uses Chemipan.

    Do you know how long it is supposed to take them to get back to you once you have placed the order with payment information. It's been 2 days now and was just wondering?

    Thanks
