Tuesday May 05, 2026

The global polyols (sugar alcohols) market is witnessing steady growth, driven by increasing consumer preference for low-calorie and sugar-free alternatives. Polyols such as sorbitol, xylitol, and erythritol are widely used across food, beverage, and personal care industries due to their multifunctional properties, including sweetness, moisture retention, and stability.
