Bitrex is a super bitter substance. Until now, no more bitter substance has been found in the world. Its main function is to make it difficult for technical alcohols to enter the human body. When one kilogram of bitrex is diluted with a tank of alcohol in the mixture, a bitter taste is still felt. As a result, the denatured alcohol formed becomes completely unsuitable for human consumption. When bitrex is added to perfumery products or household chemicals, the risk of alcohol poisoning is sharply reduced.
Bitrex, a synthetic bitter substance, is used as a "deterrent" to prevent accidental internal consumption of toxic substances, for example by children or animals. Bitrex also prevents the consumption of harmful alcohols such as methyl alcohol and ethylene glycol. With its overwhelming bitter taste, it is ideal for preventing accidental poisoning. It is also added by large manufacturers to creams, face masks, foams, shampoos.
