Organic Maltodextrin

What is organic maltodextrin?

Organic Maltodextrin is a polysaccharide, produced from organic corn, rice, or potato starch through a natural enzymatic hydrolysis process. It is a highly versatile carbohydrate commonly used in the food and beverage industries as a thickener, stabilizer, and bulking agent. Certified organic by USDA and EU, this product is non-GMO, gluten-free, and ideal for clean-label products. Organic Maltodextrin provides a mild, neutral taste, making it an excellent choice for various applications where sugar or fat reduction is desired without compromising on texture or mouthfeel.

Production Process

The production of Organic Maltodextrin involves a series of steps that ensure the highest quality and adherence to organic certification standards:

1. Organic Starch Sourcing: The process begins with the selection of organic corn, rice, or potato starch as the raw material. These starches are certified organic, non-GMO, and free from pesticides and harmful chemicals.
2. Hydrolysis: The starch is then subjected to an enzymatic hydrolysis process, where natural enzymes break down the starch into smaller sugar molecules (oligosaccharides). This is done under controlled conditions to ensure that the final product has the desired molecular weight and functional properties.
3. Purification: The hydrolyzed mixture is filtered and purified to remove any impurities and undesired by-products. This ensures the product meets strict organic and food safety standards.
4. Drying: The purified maltodextrin is then dried to a powder form. In the case of Organic Dextrose Monohydrate, the process retains some water content, while for Organic Dextrose Anhydrous, the moisture content is removed to create a dry powder.
5. Quality Control: Every batch of Organic Maltodextrin is subjected to rigorous testing for purity, consistency, and compliance with organic certification standards. This ensures that the final product is free from contaminants and meets the highest quality standards.
