Sorbitol

Product Specification

Feature

Sorbitol is a multifunctional sugar alcohol used as a sweetener, humectant and texturizing ingredient in a wide range of food formulations. Its value to manufacturers comes from the combination of sweetness and moisture-management functionality, allowing it to contribute more than one formulation role in suitable products. It is commonly considered for confectionery, chewing gum, bakery products, beverages, desserts and other processed foods. The crystalline powder or granular form is convenient for weighing, blending and industrial batching and can be supplied in bulk packaging for manufacturers and distributors. Sorbitol can be used alone or combined with other sweeteners when formulators need to balance sweetness, texture and processing characteristics. In bakery and confectionery, its humectant properties can be relevant to moisture management and product texture. In reduced-sugar concepts, it can be part of a broader sweetening system designed around the desired sensory profile. ZIO can support bulk supply, specification matching and customized packaging for different customers. For OEM/ODM projects, Sorbitol can also be incorporated into complete premixes rather than purchased as an individual raw material. Buyers can provide their application, target sweetness, particle-size preference, processing method and destination market before final specification is confirmed. Product purity, moisture, reducing sugars, ash, particle size, microbiological parameters and certification should be checked against the current COA and technical data sheet. The CAS number and molecular formula shown are standard identification information for sorbitol. Final permitted uses, labeling and regulatory requirements should be evaluated according to the target country.
