Liquid Maltitol

Hydrogenated maltose syrup for sugar-free formulations

Maltitol syrup produced by hydrogenation of high-maltose glucose syrups. Delivers 75–90% of sucrose sweetness with approximately half the calories and a significantly lower glycaemic index. The preferred bulk sweetener for sugar-free confectionery, pharmaceutical syrups, and diabetic-friendly products.

Why choose it

Duty advantage

Pakistan-origin maltitol (HTS 2940.00) attracts approximately 16.3% US import duty, compared to ~41.3% applied to Chinese-origin product. A significant saving for high-volume sugar-free confectionery buyers.

Low glycaemic

Glycaemic index of approximately 35 vs 65 for sucrose. Provides bulk sweetness with significantly lower blood glucose impact, suitable for diabetic and reduced-sugar labelling claims.

Sucrose-like properties

75–90% relative sweetness of sucrose. Excellent mouthfeel, transparency, and heat stability. Functions as a bulk sucrose replacer in most confectionery applications.
