What is organic maltodextrin?
Organic Maltodextrin is a plant-based, easily digestible carbohydrate derived from 100% certified organic, non-GMO sources such as corn, tapioca, or potato starch. Produced through enzymatic hydrolysis, this white, odorless powder acts as a multifunctional ingredient, serving as a bulking agent, texture enhancer, and carrier for flavors/nutrients in clean-label formulations. Certified USDA Organic, EU Organic, and Non-GMO Project Verified, it meets strict standards for transparency and sustainability.
With a low glycemic index (GI ~15–30), neutral taste, and rapid solubility, organic maltodextrin is ideal for B2B manufacturers in sports nutrition, infant foods, and plant-based products. Its ability to improve mouthfeel, stabilize emulsions, and extend shelf life makes it indispensable for protein powders, instant beverages, and gluten-free baked goods.
