Short description
Sorbitol Powder (D-Glucitol, E420) is a white crystalline polyol sweetener and humectant used right across the shop floor — sugar-free candy, chewing gum, toothpaste, baked goods, beverages and pharmaceutical syrups. Non-cariogenic, diabetic-friendly and about 60% as sweet as sucrose, it is supplied in food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical grades in multiple mesh sizes.
Full description
Few ingredients work as hard as sorbitol. Read the ingredient list of a sugar-free mint, a tube of toothpaste, a low-calorie biscuit, a cough syrup or a moist cake and sorbitol is frequently there — doing three jobs at once as a low-calorie bulk sweetener, a humectant that holds moisture, and a texturizing agent that builds body. That versatility, plus decades of safe use in processed foods, is why sorbitol powder is one of the most widely specified sugar alcohols in the world.
Our Sorbitol Powder is a white, crystalline, free-flowing powder that is very soluble in water and slightly soluble in alcohol. It is about 60% as sweet as sucrose with roughly one-third fewer calories, and it delivers a smooth mouthfeel with a sweet, cool and pleasant taste. Because sorbitol is non-cariogenic — it does not promote tooth decay — it is a natural fit for oral care and sugar-free products, and being a sugar alcohol it suits low-sugar and diabetic-friendly formulations as well. Sorbitol is affirmed as GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) by the U.S. FDA and is approved across the European Union and in numerous countries worldwide, including Australia, Canada and Japan.
We supply sorbitol powder in Food Grade, Cosmetic & Personal Care Grade and Pharmaceutical Grade, each 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 our range covers multiple mesh grades — from fine to coarse — so you can match particle size to your blending, tableting or dusting step. Small trial orders and full-container, wholesale volumes are both welcome, and every batch ships with its own Certificate of Analysis so you can audit purity, mesh and safety against the agreed specification.
In short: if you manufacture confectionery, oral care, bakery, beverages, nutraceuticals, pharmaceutical or cosmetics, our sorbitol powder gives you a proven, versatile, non-cariogenic sweetener with consistent quality and export-ready supply.

Sorbitol Powder is manufactured under controlled conditions and released only after a full physical, chemical and microbiological test panel against the USP / BP / EP / FCC specification. Each batch is checked for assay, moisture, total and reducing sugars, specific rotation, pH, residue on ignition and melting range; for heavy metals (as Pb), lead, nickel, arsenic, chlorides and sulphates; and for microbiological safety (total plate count, molds and yeasts, E. coli, Salmonella and, where required, coliforms). Particle size is verified against the agreed mesh grade.
Every shipment carries a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis, so buyers can confirm purity, mesh and safety against the agreed specification. Assay is guaranteed at ≥ 98.0%, with heavy metals, arsenic, lead and nickel tightly controlled.
