Short description
Sorbitol Powder is a high-purity polyol (sugar alcohol), chemically known as D-Glucitol. A white, free-flowing crystalline powder, it is a low-calorie bulk sweetener with a smooth mouthfeel and a sweet, cool, pleasant taste — widely used across food, pharmaceutical and personal care manufacturing.
Full description
Sorbitol Powder (also written D-Glucitol, D-Sorbitol, Sorbit or Sorbol) is a sugar alcohol produced to a consistent, high-purity crystalline powder. With roughly 60% of the sweetness of sucrose and about one-third fewer calories, it is an ideal bulk sweetener and texturizing agent where sweetness, body and mouthfeel must be delivered with a lower calorie load. It dissolves readily in water and has a clean, cool sweetness that does not mask other flavours.
Our sorbitol powder is supplied in Food Grade, Cosmetic & Personal Care Grade and Pharmaceutical Grade, manufactured and tested to the internationally recognised USP, BP, EP and FCC standards for food and pharmaceutical application. Assay is guaranteed at ≥ 98.0%, and each batch is accompanied by a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis so buyers can audit purity, microbiology and heavy metals against the specification.
Sorbitol is non-cariogenic (it does not promote tooth decay) and is well suited to formulations for people who manage their sugar intake. It has been affirmed as GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) by the U.S. Food Administration and is approved for use by the European Union and numerous countries worldwide, including Australia, Canada and Japan.
Whether you are a confectionery, bakery, beverage, nutraceutical, pharmaceutical or oral-care manufacturer, our sorbitol powder offers dependable quality, flexible mesh grades and export-ready packaging — with small trial orders and bulk volumes both welcome.

Sorbitol Powder is produced under controlled manufacturing conditions and released only after passing a full battery of physical, chemical and microbiological tests against the USP / BP / EP / FCC specification. Every batch is checked for assay, moisture, total and reducing sugars, pH, specific rotation, residue on ignition, heavy metals (Pb), lead, nickel, arsenic, chlorides, sulphates, particle size and microbiological safety (total plate count, molds and yeasts, E. coli, Salmonella and, where required, coliforms).
Each shipment is supplied with a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis, so buyers can verify purity and safety against the agreed specification. Assay is guaranteed at ≥ 98.0%, with heavy metals, arsenic, lead and nickel tightly controlled to meet food and pharmaceutical requirements.
