Polyols (Sugar alcohols)

Roquette – world-wide leader of polyols industrially produces from cereals an extensive range of key ingredients maltitol, sorbitol, mannitol, xylitol and isomalt.

All of them can be naturally found in widely consumed fruits or vegetables. 

Roquette’s polyols provide unique qualities to an array of food products. Often called as ‘sugar-alcohol', these sweeteners are neither sugars nor alcohol. Instead, they are a group of low-digestible carbohydrates with outstanding nutritional and technical properties.

Polyols are partners of choice to develop food with added nutritional value. They have a low caloric value, low glycaemic index and offer indisputable dental benefits. Besides these nutritional properties, polyols also offer many functional benefits due to their physico-chemical properties.
