What is Organic Maltodextrin Powder?
Organic Maltodextrin Powder—also known as organic tapioca maltodextrin, organic corn maltodextrin, or organic glucose polymer powder—is a white, easily soluble carbohydrate derived from certified organic starch sources such as corn or tapioca.
With varying DE (Dextrose Equivalent) values, it provides excellent control over sweetness, viscosity, and mouthfeel in food and beverage formulations.
It is widely used as a bulking agent, stabilizer, or carrier in nutritional and functional food applications.

We offer three grades of Organic Maltodextrin Powder:
- DE 8–10 for low sweetness and high viscosity applications
- DE 10–15 for balanced sweetness and texture
- DE 15–20 for higher sweetness and enhanced solubility

FAQs
Q: What does “DE value” mean for Organic Maltodextrin Powder?
A: DE stands for Dextrose Equivalent, which indicates the percentage of reducing sugars present, expressed as D-glucose on a dry basis. It measures the extent of hydrolysis:
* Lower DE (e.g., DE 8-10): Less sweet, higher viscosity, better binding, ideal for bulking.
* Higher DE (e.g., DE 15-20): More sweet, lower viscosity, higher solubility, better for quick dispersion and flavor carrying.
Q: Is Organic Maltodextrin Powder considered a sugar?
A: While it is a carbohydrate and composed of glucose units, maltodextrin is classified as a complex carbohydrate, not a simple sugar like sucrose or glucose. Its sweetness varies by DE value, with lower DEs being nearly tasteless. It is often used as a bulking agent rather than primarily for sweetness.
Q: What is the typical shelf life and recommended storage for bulk quantities?
A: Our Organic Maltodextrin Powder typically has a shelf life of 24-36 months from the manufacturing date when stored in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture, in its original sealed, airtight packaging.
Q: Is Organic Maltodextrin Powder gluten-free?
A: Yes, if produced from organic corn, rice, or tapioca starch, our Organic Maltodextrin Powder is inherently gluten-free. We can provide documentation to confirm the source starch and gluten-free status.
Q: Can Organic Maltodextrin Powder be used in organic certified products?
A: Absolutely. Our Organic Maltodextrin Powder is certified organic, making it a suitable and compliant ingredient for use in your organic-certified finished products.
