Maltodextrin is a carbohydrate that goes through a lot of processing. It's a white powder that's made from rice, corn, wheat, or potato starch. Its creators cook it first, then add acids or enzymes to further break it down. The finished product is a white powder that is water-soluble and has a neutral flavor. The powder is added to the items listed above to replace sugar and improve texture, shelf life, and flavor.
Because it is not true sugar and is appropriate for
diabetics, maltodextrin is more typically utilized in sugar-free products.
However, this ingredient may not be suitable for people who are gluten
intolerant, which could limit the maltodextrin market's growth.
India's maltodextrin
market accounted for 23.6 percent of the Asia Pacific
maltodextrin market in 2021. The growing trade of corn-based maltodextrin,
wheat-based maltodextrin, and cassava-based maltodextrin in Asia Pacific
countries would propel India's market forward.
The cosmetics and personal care industry's increased need for
maltodextrin is expected to provide prospective market possibilities in the
near future. It's utilized in the cosmetics industry as a thickening and
stabilizer. The rising number of working women, combined with rising consumer
disposable money, is fuelling demand for cosmetic items. As a result,
significant growth in the cosmetics and personal care market is expected to
benefit maltodextrin market growth.
