After Europe, Glysantin® is now establishing a growing fan base in Asia.”

 

Keeping Glysantin® up to date for its community of fans, the brand’s online presence has been refreshed. The brand website www.glysantin.com has been redesigned, now providing better navigation and usability for the users, e.g. by flexibly reacting to mobile devices (responsive design).
