Cargill (US) and ADM (US) are the Key Players in the Glucose, Dextrose, and Maltodextrin Market
Starch derivatives are produced by enzymatically, physically, and organically altering the characteristics of native starch. Glucose, dextrose, and maltodextrin are among the major starch derivatives used. Glucose is a sweetener used in a range of food products. It is produced from the hydrolysis of starch. Dextrose is a dextrorotatory form of glucose. It is used in baking products such as cake blends and toppings, snack food items such as cookies and desserts such as custards and sherbets. Maltodextrin is a moderately sweet or flavorless sugar, which is easily digestible, and is absorbed as rapidly as glucose.
