Also known as glycerol, glycerin is an organic compound derived from vegetable oils and animal fats. As previously mentioned, it is found in everything from household cleaning products to skincare and cosmetic products as well. Now, how can one simple ingredient prove so multifunctional? Well, it's because of the bacteriostatic properties found in glycerin.
According to a publication in Advances in Wound Care (New Rochelle), a plethora of clinical studies have proven that when in high concentrations, glycerin fosters a bacteriostatic environment, which is an environment that prohibits the spread and reproduction of bacteria. So, when applied to your floor tiles, glycerin ultimately sterilizes them and neutralizes any potential bacteria. Similarly, glycerin is also known for its polishing and shining effects, as it is often used to relieve dust and protect varnishes and laminates.
Tapping into these floor-shining benefits is as simple as can be. Just add two or three tablespoons of glycerin to a bucket of water and mop thoroughly to make your floor look like new.
