Key Features & Advantages

 

Non-Cariogenic & Sugar-Free: Does not promote tooth decay; suitable for diabetic and sugar-free products.
High Thermal & Chemical Stability: Resists browning (Maillard reaction), ideal for heat-processed foods.
Excellent Moisture Retention: Prevents drying, hardening, and extends shelf life in various applications.
γ-Crystal Structure: Ensures long-term storage without moisture absorption or caking.
Multi-Functional: Acts as sweetener, humectant, texturizer, plasticizer, and cryoprotectant.

 

Applications by Industry

 

1. Food Industry
Sweetener & Humectant: Used in sugar-free candies, baked goods, surimi, beverages, and dairy products.
