Sorbitol Solution 70% is the liquid form of sorbitol — the polyol (sugar alcohol) also called D-glucitol, D-sorbitol or simply sorbitol syrup — supplied as a clear, colourless syrup at a 70% dry-substance concentration. Where a powder must be weighed, dissolved and dispersed, this syrup is pumped, metered or poured straight into the batch. For anyone building a syrup, a liquid filling, a toothpaste paste or a beverage base, that one change removes a production step and takes the dust out of the plant.
What the syrup actually contributes is four functions at once:
Sweetening
Humectancy
Body and texture
Freezing-point control
Sorbitol is also non-cariogenic (it does not promote tooth decay) and does not cause a sharp glucose spike, which is why it is a standard ingredient in sugar-free, reduced-calorie and diabetic-friendly products around the world. It has been safely used in processed foods for almost half a century, is affirmed GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) by the U.S. FDA, and is approved for use in the European Union and in many countries including Australia, Canada and Japan.
Identifiers
The product is offered in two grades. Both are food and pharmaceutical qualified; the difference is the sorbitol/mannitol balance and the crystallisation behaviour.

Sweetening without sugar. At about 60% of sucrose sweetness and roughly one-third fewer calories, it lets a product be labelled sugar-free while keeping a rounded, natural sweetness — and it softens the harsh edges of high-intensity sweeteners such as stevia or sucralose.
Moisture retention (humectancy). Sorbitol holds water in the matrix, so candy does not dry out and harden, baked goods stay tender, and creams and lotions do not shrink or crack. This is the single most common reason the liquid form is specified over the powder.
Body, texture and mouthfeel. It builds viscosity and body, giving sugar-free products the "full" mouthfeel that reduced-sugar recipes otherwise lose.
Crystallisation control. In the Non-Crystalline grade the mannitol/polyol balance keeps the syrup liquid and helps suppress unwanted sugar crystallisation in candy and syrup systems.
Freezing-point control. In frozen desserts and ice cream it depresses the freezing point, keeping the product soft and scoopable straight from the freezer.
Non-cariogenic sweetening. It does not feed the bacteria that cause tooth decay — the reason it is the default sweetener base in toothpaste, mouthwash and sugar-free gum.
Carrier and dosing convenience. As a 70% solution it is a ready-to-use liquid carrier: no dust, no lumping, no dissolution step, and easy in-line metering.
Sugar-free confectionery & chewing gum — hard candy, soft candy, gummies, pastilles, lozenges and chewing gum; the standard sugar-free candy base syrup and a softness keeper for gum.
Bakery & biscuits — sugar-free and reduced-sugar cakes, cookies, biscuits and pastries, where it keeps texture and slows staling.
Beverages & liquid concentrates — sugar-free soft drinks, fruit syrups, cordials, liquid concentrates and liquid nutritional products.
Ice cream & frozen desserts — sugar-free and low-calorie ice cream, frozen yogurt and frozen desserts.
Jams, fillings, sauces & dressings — body and moisture retention in reduced-sugar recipes.
Pharmaceutical — an excipient and sweetening vehicle for syrups, oral solutions, suspensions, cough syrups and sugar-free liquid medicines; the Crystalline grade's higher D-sorbitol content suits higher-purity pharmaceutical work.
Oral care — the classic toothpaste and mouthwash humectant and non-cariogenic sweetener.
Cosmetics & personal care — humectant and texture agent in creams, lotions, cleansers, toners, gels and shower products.
Industrial & intermediate — a raw material for sorbitan fatty acid esters and other non-ionic surfactants, for polyurethane polyols, and for a range of chemical intermediates where a 70% liquid is easier to dose than a powder.

Safety standing. Sorbitol has been safely used in processed foods for almost half a century. It is affirmed GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) by the U.S. Food Administration and is approved for use in the European Union and in many countries including Australia, Canada and Japan. In labelling terms it is INS 420 / E 420.
Why it fits "clean label" work. Sorbitol is a single, well-characterised polyol: non-cariogenic, suitable for sugar-free and reduced-calorie products, and — at the trace-metal and microbial limits shown above — comfortable in food, oral-care and pharmaceutical use.
