Steviol Glycoside
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Steviol Glycoside is a high-purity natural sweetener extracted from Stevia rebaudiana, offering a sweetness profile up to 300 times that of sucrose. This Food Grade additive is highly stable across a wide temperature range and pH levels, making it a versatile alternative to synthetic sugars.
The product contains Rebaudioside A and Stevioside as primary active components, providing a zero-calorie solution for modern dietary requirements. Its non-fermentable nature and excellent shelf stability ensure consistent quality in large-scale industrial food manufacturing.
As a GRAS-certified ingredient, it is widely utilized for its ability to reduce caloric content without compromising sensory appeal. This Specialty Chemical is essential for “clean label” formulations aiming to replace high-fructose corn syrup and artificial sweeteners.
