Maltodextrin Powder

What Maltodextrin DE 10-20 Can Do for Your Manufacturing Process

If you're tired of carbohydrate ingredients that behave unpredictably in production, our maltodextrin DE 10-20 might be your solution. This isn't just another filler powder—it's a consistent performer that tackles real manufacturing headaches. No more clumping during mixing. No unexpected sweetness throwing off your flavor profiles. Just reliable, batch-after-batch performance that lets you focus on what matters: creating great products.

We see it every day—manufacturers struggling with ingredients that don't deliver what they promise. That's why we're particular about the maltodextrin we source. The DE 10-20 specification gives you that sweet spot between solubility and texture control. It dissolves quickly when you need it to, but provides enough body without turning gummy. For supplement lines, food products, or specialized formulations, this consistency matters more than you might think.

Beyond Basic Carbohydrates: Understanding Maltodextrin DE 10-20

At first glance, maltodextrin seems simple enough—that white, free-flowing powder derived from starch. But the devil's in the details, specifically in the dextrose equivalent (DE) value. Our DE 10-20 maltodextrin hits that manufacturing sweet spot. The glucose polymer chains aren't too long or too short. This middle ground delivers exactly what production managers need: quick dissolution in liquid systems with enough structure to provide body without gumminess.

Since we source exclusively from non-GMO corn and rice starch, you get a clean, consistent base material. No surprises. Just predictable performance whether you're working with protein shakes, sauce mixes, or supplement capsules. The consistency starts with the raw materials, and we're meticulous about that starting point.

Real-World Applications: Where Maltodextrin Shines in Production

This is where theory meets the factory floor. Maltodextrin DE 10-20 isn't just filling space in your formulations—it's solving specific production challenges:

• Carrier for sensitive ingredients: Ever found hot spots in your powder blends? With vitamins, flavors, and colors, uneven distribution ruins product consistency. Maltodextrin creates a uniform base that prevents this—every serving delivers exactly what it should.
• Texture control in nutritional products: Weight gainers and meal replacements need that satisfying thickness without becoming syrupy. In capsules, it improves flow properties for faster filling lines. Less downtime, more production.
• Spray-drying operations: Converting liquid extracts to shelf-stable powders? Maltodextrin protects active compounds during drying and prevents them from sticking to equipment. Fewer cleanups, better yields.
• Energy component management: With moderate glycemic index and rapid digestibility, it provides consistent energy release in sports nutrition products. No energy spikes and crashes—just reliable performance.
• Cost-effective standardization: When you're working with expensive active compounds, precise dilution matters. Maltodextrin helps standardize ingredient concentrations across batches without compromising quality.

Quality Verification That Actually Matters

Paperwork doesn't make a quality product—but the right testing does. We go beyond basic certificates. Every shipment comes with complete traceability and testing documentation that actually means something on your production line.

Our partners operate under strict GMP standards, but we don't stop there. We conduct our own audits and batch testing for parameters that impact your manufacturing process. Moisture content consistently below 6% means better shelf life. DE value maintained within the 10-20 range ensures predictable performance. Heavy metal screening and microbiological purity are just the baseline.

But here's what sets us apart: we test for practical factors like flow characteristics and solubility under various temperature conditions. Because if an ingredient doesn't work smoothly on your production line, what's the point?

Supply Chain You Can Actually Trust

We're selective about where our maltodextrin comes from. Our partners specialize in corn and rice starch processing, with consistent raw material specifications that make your job easier. This consistency in starting materials is why you notice reliable performance batch after batch.

The entire supply chain follows HACCP principles, with documentation showing compliance with FDA and EFSA requirements. Multiple qualified sources mean supply continuity even during market fluctuations. Because production stops aren't an option for you—so they're not an option for us either.

Technical Specifications for Practical Formulation Work

For your R&D and production planning, here are the specifications that actually matter when you're formulating:

• Physical state: White to off-white powder, free from visible impurities
• Bulk density: 0.5-0.7 g/ml (critical for storage and shipping calculations)
• pH (20°C, 10% solution): 4.0-6.0
• Solubility: Completely soluble in hot or cold water without gel formation
• Particle size distribution: 98% through 80 mesh screen for consistent blending
• Storage recommendations: 24 months in original packaging below 25°C and 50% relative humidity

Standard packaging is 25kg bags with food-grade PE liners, but we can accommodate custom requirements for larger orders. Minimum order quantity starts at 25kg, with samples available for qualified manufacturers to test in specific applications.
