Crystalline Sorbitol Powder (D‑Sorbitol / D‑Glucitol, INS E420, CAS 50‑70‑4) is a plant‑derived sugar‑alcohol polyol, manufactured by catalytic hydrogenation of corn‑based dextrose, followed by crystallization, centrifugation and low‑temperature drying process. It appears as white or almost‑white free‑flowing crystalline powder, delivering about 60 % sweetness of sucrose with distinctive cooling sensory effect upon dissolution. Calorific value reaches around 2.6 kcal/g, significantly lower than cane sugar.
Our crystalline sorbitol powder complies with USP, BP, EP and FCC‑V pharmacopoeia specifications, supporting multiple mesh grades including 20‑60 mesh and 60‑120 mesh for diversified manufacturing requirements. This multi‑functional polyol can serve as sweetener, bulking agent, humectant, direct‑compression filler‑binder, taste‑masking agent across food processing, confectionery, pharmaceutical solid‑dosage production, oral‑care and cosmetic sectors. Strict control on heavy‑metal, nickel, microbial limits makes it suitable for both food‑grade and pharmaceutical‑grade production environments.
We export bulk crystalline sorbitol powder worldwide to confectionery factories, nutraceutical manufacturers, pharma plants and cosmetic producers. Each production batch is accompanied with official Certificate of Analysis (COA); MSDS and technical datasheet are available upon request. Small lab samples are supported for formulation validation before placing full‑container bulk orders.
Important note: This product is crystalline solid sorbitol powder, which is totally different from 70% sorbitol liquid solution. Powder variant features low‑moisture property and fits dry mixing and direct tableting workflows; liquid sorbitol syrup applies for liquid‑phase mixing production. Do not mix up these two different physical forms in procurement and formulation.
Crystalline D‑Sorbitol belongs to polyol family, also named D‑Glucitol. Raw material originates from renewable plant starch. After glucose hydrogenation reaction, we get aqueous sorbitol solution; through crystallization and drying procedure, water is removed to obtain low‑moisture crystalline sorbitol powder. Unlike sorbitol liquid which contains around 30 % water content, crystalline sorbitol powder keeps low loss‑on‑drying index ≤1.0 %, which is critical for dry‑premix and direct‑compression tablet production.
It obtains GRAS confirmation by US FDA and is approved as food additive E420 within EU regulation. Apart from acting as low‑calorie sugar substitute in sugar‑free food, it is widely adopted as pharmaceutical excipient for chewable tablets, herbal lozenges and dietary‑supplement solid formulations.
✅ Non‑cariogenic low‑calorie sweetener Does not cause tooth decay. Fit for sugar‑free chewing gum, breath mint lozenges and low‑sugar functional food for sugar‑controlled population.
✅ Outstanding direct‑compression performance for pharma manufacturing Great flowability and compressibility. As tablet filler‑binder for chewable vitamin tablets, herbal tablets and supplement lozenges. Simplify production process by skipping wet granulation step, lower production cost for pharma factories.
✅ Cooling mouth‑feel for confectionery formula Endothermic dissolution brings refreshing cooling sensation, perfect match for mint‑flavour candy and gum products, improve finished‑goods taste experience.
✅ Humectant & anti‑staling agent Lock moisture inside finished articles, prevent baked goods and soft confectionery from drying, hardening and staling, extend shelf‑life of end‑products.
✅ Multi‑mesh customizable particle grades Coarser 20‑60‑mesh grade for chewing‑gum and hard‑candy manufacturing; fine 60‑120‑mesh powder for tablet pressing and solid‑drink premix. Custom particle‑size negotiable for large‑volume contracts.
✅ Strict impurity & microbiological control Nickel, lead, arsenic, heavy‑metals, chloride and sulphate are tightly controlled; total plate count, yeast‑mold, E.coli, salmonella indicators comply with pharmacopoeia standards, safe for food and oral‑pharma usage.
✅ Complete export supporting documents Batch‑specific COA, MSDS, TDS can be issued; sample service for lab test; flexible sea‑shipping terms like FOB, CFR, CIF for global bulk procurement.

Crystalline sorbitol powder is core raw‑material for sugar‑free chewing‑gum production. Its cooling taste synergizes well with mint flavour. It can be applied for breath‑freshening lozenges, hard candies and sugar‑free chocolate. Good anti‑stick feature stabilizes texture during high‑speed confectionery equipment running. Replace sucrose to produce dental‑friendly sugar‑free confectionery.
Act as multi‑functional pharmaceutical excipient: direct‑compression filler, binder and taste‑masking sweetener for chewable vitamin tablets, herbal lozenges, dietary‑supplement solid preparations. Reliable powder flow reduces tablet‑weight deviation during tableting process. It is also used as raw intermediate for partial fine‑chemical synthesis routes.
Function as bulking agent, humectant and low‑calorie sweetener in nutritional bars, cookie fillings and preserved fruits, delay staling and retain soft texture. Widely used in solid‑drink powder, meal‑replacement premix and diabetic‑oriented low‑GI food formulas.
Added into toothpaste and granular mouth‑wash formula as non‑cariogenic sweetener and auxiliary humectant, improve taste performance of oral‑care finished goods.
Work as humectant in solid cosmetic granules, powder‑type skincare products, improve moisture‑retention property of cosmetic systems.
Used as starting raw‑material for manufacturing sorbitan ester emulsifier and other fine‑chemical intermediates.
Handling Reminder: Crystalline sorbitol powder is hygroscopic. Keep packaging tightly sealed. Avoid high‑humidity storage condition to prevent moisture‑absorbing caking.
