Sorbitol Solution 70% is a clear, colourless, syrupy liquid containing approximately 70% dry substance. It is the liquid form of sorbitol (D-Sorbitol / D-Glucitol, E 420, INS 420) — a polyol (sugar alcohol) used as a bulk sweetener, humectant and texturizing agent across food, pharmaceutical, oral-care and cosmetic manufacturing.
Sorbitol is roughly 60% as sweet as sucrose while delivering about one-third fewer calories, with a smooth mouthfeel and a distinctive sweet, cool and pleasant taste. Because it is non-cariogenic and metabolised without a sharp glycaemic response, it is a preferred bulk sweetener and humectant for sugar-free, reduced-calorie and diabetic-friendly formulations.
As a ready-to-use liquid, sorbitol solution 70% is pumpable, easy to dose and simple to blend — no dissolving step, minimal dust, and fast incorporation into syrups, pastes, gels and liquid food systems. It is supplied in two grades so you can match the exact purity and crystallisation behaviour your process requires:
Crystalline grade (BP / USP / EP) — high D-sorbitol content and low mannitol/sugar, for high-purity applications.
Non-crystalline grade (BP / USP) — controlled mannitol content keeps the liquid clear and
non-crystallising even at low temperature, ideal for toothpaste, oral care and cold-chain storage.
Two grades, one supplier— crystalline and non-crystalline solutions, tested to
BP / USP / EP and INS 420 standards.
Genuinely clear & colourless— colourless, syrupy liquid with a clean profile, suitable for transparent and light-coloured formulations.
Controlled purity— D-sorbitol, D-mannitol and residual sugars controlled to grade; low ionic content (resistivity/conductivity) for sensitive applications.
Low-temperature stability— the non-crystalline grade passes an 18°C / 48 h non-crystallising test, so it stays fluid and clear through cold storage and shipping.
Food-grade hygiene— controlled heavy metals (Pb, Ni, Fe, As) and low microbial counts (fungus numbers) for hygienic, direct-contact use.
Export-ready packing—250 kg / 270 kg / 275 kg drums (new plastic or steel), plus IBC and flexible-bag options, with batch COA per shipment.

Sorbitol solution 70% performs several functions at once — sweetener, humectant, texturizer and carrier — and its liquid form makes dosing simple.
Oral Care (non-crystalline grade is the standard choice)
Food & Confectionery
Pharmaceutical & Nutraceuticals
Cosmetics & Personal Care
Industrial
Choosing a grade: for toothpaste, oral care and any product stored or shipped in cold conditions, choose the non-crystalline grade (higher mannitol keeps it clear and fluid). For high-purity, low-sugar systems, choose the crystalline grade. Tell us your application and we will recommend the right grade.

Q: What is the difference between crystalline and non-crystalline sorbitol solution? A: Both are 70% sorbitol syrups; they differ mainly in mannitol and residual-sugar content. The crystalline grade has low mannitol (≤ 1.5%) and very low sugars — for high-purity applications. The non-crystalline grade carries more mannitol (≤ 6.0%), which inhibits crystallisation and keeps the liquid clear and fluid at low temperature — the usual choice for toothpaste and oral care.
Q: Which grade should I use for toothpaste? A: The non-crystalline grade. Its higher mannitol content keeps the paste smooth and prevents crystallisation during storage and cold shipping.
Q: Is the product clear and colourless? A: Yes — both grades are colourless, syrupy liquids, suitable for transparent and light-coloured formulations.
Q: What is the standard packaging? A: 250 kg / 270 kg / 275 kg new plastic or steel drums, plus IBC drums and flexible bags for bulk buyers. Customized drum sizes and labelling are available on request.
Q: Do you provide a COA and specification? A: Yes. Every shipment includes a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis, and we can provide the specification and representative COAs for your chosen grade on request.
Q: Is sorbitol suitable for sugar-free, diabetic-friendly and non-cariogenic products? A: Yes. Sorbitol is a sugar alcohol that is non-cariogenic and metabolised independently of insulin, which is why it is widely used in sugar-free, reduced-calorie and diabetic-friendly formulations.
Q: How should I store it, and does it crystallise in the cold? A: Store cool, dry and ventilated, with drums sealed. The non-crystalline grade passes an 18°C / 48 h non-crystallising test, so it stays clear and fluid through cold storage and transport.
Q: What is your MOQ and lead time? A: MOQ and lead time depend on grade, drum size and destination. Send us your requirement and we will confirm the minimum order quantity, production lead time and shipping schedule.
Q: What are the HS code and trade terms? A: HS code is 29054400. We quote on FOB, CIF and other Incoterms — advise your destination port and we will prepare a quotation.
Q: Can you supply in bulk / on a regular schedule? A: Yes — we are set up for bulk supply. Share your monthly or annual volume and we will plan capacity, packing and shipping accordingly.
Q: Do you offer samples? A: Sample availability and terms are confirmed per enquiry. Contact us with your target grade.
Q: Which documents come with the shipment? A: Batch COA, commercial invoice, packing list and other export documents as required, together with storage and handling instructions.
