Sorbitol powder is a crystalline sugar alcohol derived from glucose, widely used as multi‑functional food additive. It features stable physical property, mild sweet taste and good moisture retention performance. As a low calorie sugar substitute, it can replace sucrose in various food formulas. Our sorbitol powder is food grade with stable batch consistency, available in bulk packing for wholesale. It is well suitable for confectionery, chewing gum, bakery, functional food and other manufacturing fields. Relevant documents including COA and MSDS can be supplied upon request for your import clearance and production application.

Crystalline sorbitol powder earns its shelf space for four reasons that show up in formulation meetings again and again.
It sweetens without the sugar load. Sorbitol is about 60 percent as sweet as sucrose with roughly one-third fewer calories, and it is documented as non-cariogenic - the property that makes sugar-free chewing gum and oral care formulas work without a dental caveat. It has been used safely in processed foods for almost half a century.
It manages moisture. A humectant by structure, sorbitol binds water and slows the drying, hardening and crystallization that shorten the shelf life of toothpaste, creams and soft confectionery. Formulators count on it to keep paste smooth, candy tender and cosmetics stable.
It behaves predictably under heat. The reference lot keeps total sugar at just 0.20% and reducing sugar at 0.05%, so the finished product has very little sugar to react, brown or shift flavour during cooking - a real advantage in boiled sweets and chocolate work.
It arrives free-flowing and consistent. Moisture at 0.5% (limit 1.0%) and a reference density of 1.48 mean the powder pours, blends and stores predictably, whether it is metered by weight or by volume on a production line.
The classic destination for crystalline sorbitol. In gum and sugar-free candy it supplies the bulk and sweetness that sucrose would otherwise provide, delivers the mild cooling taste buyers expect, and - thanks to low reducing sugar - keeps colour and flavour clean through high-temperature cooking. Particle-size options from 10-20 mesh up to 40-100 mesh let confectioners match flow and mouthfeel to their process.
When people search 'what keeps toothpaste from drying out', the answer is often sorbitol. As one of the most established humectants in oral care, it maintains paste body, prevents the tube content from hardening at the crimp, and contributes a mild sweetness that reads as clean and fresh. Its non-cariogenic profile is the reason it belongs in products designed for teeth.
Cosmetic chemists search for 'sorbitol powder humectant' when they need moisture retention without added tack. In creams, lotions and body-care formulas, the same water-binding chemistry supports a soft, conditioned feel while helping the product hold its texture over time.
In compound chocolate and sugar-free baked goods, sorbitol powder does two jobs at once: sweetness and moisture management. Its crystalline particles blend evenly into dry premixes and rehydrate predictably, which makes scaling from lab recipe to production batch straightforward.
Outside finished retail products, food and technical processors use crystalline sorbitol wherever water activity control matters - glazes, coatings, semi-moist systems and industrial formulations that need a stable humectant. One ingredient, one consistent supply chain, many labels.

The COA closes with 'the results conform to the specification' and carries a three-level signature line - analyst, checker and supervisor - so the certificate is both a number sheet and a record of who approved the lot.
· Specification: food grade per FCC V purity requirements on the specification sheet; reference COA issued against BP/USP/EP/FCC quality criteria.
· Approvals (documented): sorbitol is affirmed as GRAS by the U.S. FDA and approved for use in the EU (E420), Australia, Canada and Japan.
· Transport status (per MSDS): not a DOT-controlled material, not regulated under the IMDG Code, not controlled under WHMIS (Canada) - standard sea freight applies.
· Safety picture (per MSDS): mainly an eye irritant (DSCL R36); HMIS Health 2 / Fire 1 / Reactivity 0; oral LD50 15,900 mg/kg (rat) - routine dust and eye protection are sufficient for handling.
· Scope: food, confectionery, oral care, cosmetics and processing applications. No medical claims are made.
Can sorbitol powder replace sugar 1:1 in my recipe? Not by weight alone - at about 60% of sucrose sweetness the sweetness level needs adjusting, and its humectant behaviour affects texture, so pilot-test before scaling.
Is sorbitol powder suitable for sugar-free products? Yes - it is a sugar alcohol with a low sugar carryover (0.20% total sugar in the reference lot) and a non-cariogenic profile, which is why sugar-free gum and oral care lines use it.
Which mesh size should I buy? The COA lists 10-20, 20-40, 40-60 and 40-100 mesh; the specification adds 20-60 and 60-120. Tell us your process and we will confirm the available cut.
Do you supply 25kg bags or custom packing? Standard packing is 25 kg kraft bags with PE inner; custom packing is available on request.
What documents come with the goods? A lot-specific signed COA, the product specification and the MSDS - the three documents your QC team will ask for.
Is sorbitol powder dangerous goods for shipping? No - it is not DOT-controlled, not IMDG-regulated and not WHMIS-controlled, so documentation stays simple.
