Maltitol Syrup is a clear, colourless to light-yellow, viscous liquid with a sweet taste — the liquid, ready-to-use form of maltitol (INS 965 / E 965). Chemically it is a hydrogenated starch hydrolysate (HSH): it is made by the hydrogenation of a mixture of carbohydrates hydrolysed from starch, and consists of 50–80% maltitol by weight, with the remainder being predominantly sorbitol and a small number of other sugar-related substances.
Because it is already a liquid, maltitol syrup is pumpable, easy to dose and simple to blend — no dissolving step, no dusting, and fast incorporation into chocolate, candy, syrups, fillings and coatings.
Like maltitol powder, its taste and behaviour come close to sugar: high sweetness lets it be used without blending other sweeteners, and it shows a negligible cooling effect (positive heat of solution) compared with other sugar alcohols — very much like the subtle cooling effect of sucrose. This is why it is a first-choice bulk sweetener for sugar-free chocolate, hard candy, chewing gum, baked goods and ice cream.
Maltitol syrup is more than a sweetener. It is also a humectant, texturizing agent and stabiliser — it retains moisture, adds body and improves softness and shelf life. In syrups its similarity to sucrose means crystallisation is less likely (which can otherwise cause bottle caps to stick). In the pharmaceutical industry it is used as an excipient and low-calorie sweetening agent, and as a plasticiser in gelatin capsules, an emollient and a humectant.

Choosing a grade: higher-maltitol grades (≥ 75%) suit products where sweetness and a clean, sugar-like taste matter most; higher dry-substance grades (≥ 80% / ≥ 85%) suit concentrated systems with low water content; the standard ≥ 75% DS / ≥ 50% maltitol grade is a cost-effective workhorse for general candy and fillings. Tell us your application and we will recommend the right grade.
Standards-based release— manufactured and tested against FCC requirements for food use.
Allergen statement— the product contains none of the ingredients on the list of allergenics of the EC.
Full batch testing— every lot is tested for dry substance, maltitol content, sorbitol, reducing sugars, water, pH, conductivity, transparency, sulphated ash, heavy metals (Pb, Ni, As), sulphate, chloride and microbiology before release.
Batch traceability— each shipment carries a COA traceable to its production batch.
Stable, clean refining— high transparency, low reducing sugars and low inorganic residue reflect a consistent refining process.

Q: Is maltitol syrup the same as maltitol powder? A: They share the same sweetener molecule but differ in form. Maltitol syrup is a liquid (hydrogenated starch hydrolysate, 50–80% maltitol plus sorbitol and other polyols) — pumpable and dust-free. Maltitol powder is a high-purity crystalline solid (assay 99–101%). Choose syrup for chocolate, coatings, fillings and syrups; choose powder for tableting, dry mixes and gum.
Q: Is it a sugar? Is it suitable for sugar-free products? A: No — maltitol is a sugar alcohol (polyol), not a sugar. The syrup is widely used in sugar-free and reduced-sugar chocolate, candy, gum and baked goods.
Q: How does it taste compared with sugar? A: Its sweetness is high and close to sucrose, so it can be used without blending other sweeteners, and it has a negligible cooling effect — very similar to the subtle cooling of sugar. That makes it a good fit for chocolate, baked goods and creamy products where other polyols taste "cool".
Q: Which dry-substance / maltitol grade should I choose? A: It depends on your target sweetness, water content and cost. We offer ≥ 75% to ≥ 85% dry substance and ≥ 50% to ≥ 75% maltitol grades (see the grade table above). Tell us your formulation and we will recommend the best fit.
Q: Will it crystallise in my syrup or product? A: Maltitol's close similarity to sucrose means crystallisation is less likely in syrups — this helps prevent the crystallisation that can otherwise cause bottle caps to stick.
Q: Is it allergen-free? A: Yes — the product contains none of the ingredients on the list of allergenics of the EC.
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: What is the standard packaging? A: 275 kg new plastic drums, 1300/1400 kg IBC drums and flexible bags. Customized packing is available on request.
Q: What is your MOQ and lead time? A: MOQ and lead time depend on grade, packing 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 38249099. 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.
