Overview
Polydextrose is a water-soluble dietary fibre — a randomly bonded D-glucose polymer produced by high-temperature polymerization of glucose with sorbitol and a food-grade acid. It provides bulk and fibre enrichment with minimal impact on sweetness or calories.
Maxeve supplies this ingredient as an authorized reseller and importer of record, sourced from a verified overseas manufacturing partner, with Canadian landed-cost and delivery support.
Key value
- Water-soluble dietary fibre above 90%
- Highly soluble — approximately 80% solubility in water at 25 °C
- Acid- and heat-stable; robust across processing
- Poorly fermentable / slowly utilised by microbes
- Non-cariogenic; effective bulking and humectant functionality
Applications
- Beverages and powdered drink mixes
- Bakery, cereal and bar systems
- Dairy and frozen desserts
- Confectionery and sugar-reduced systems
- Functional and nutritional foods
