LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--To date, China produces primarily five sugar alcohols – sorbitol, maltitol, xylitol, mannitol and erythritol; their total annual output surpasses 1mn tonnes. Sorbitol enjoys the largest market share of over 80 per cent by output, with maltitol and xylitol trailing after, respectively.
Rising healthy eating habits push up consumption of sugar alcohols in the food industry, which is estimated to remain high in the forecast period. The pharmaceutical and household chemical industries form the other important end-use sectors of sugar alcohols in China.
New market research report “Survey of Sugar Alcohol in China” drawn up by CCM International Limited (CCM) provides a wealth of exclusive information and in-depth analysis on the Chinese sugar alcohol industry’s present status, besides describing the changes that took place in the sector in the past few years.
