Dextrose Monohydrate is a natural simple sugar that provides quick energy and plays a vital role in food, beverage, and pharmaceutical formulations. It is the hydrated crystalline form of D-glucose, containing one molecule of water. Owing to its clean sweetness, high purity, and excellent solubility, it is widely used as a sweetener, texturizer, and energy source in various industries.

Allchem supplies high-quality Dextrose Monohydrate manufactured under stringent control standards (FCC, USP, BP, ISO 22000). Each batch is tested for purity, moisture content, pH, and solubility. The product is packed in multi-layer 25 kg bags with moisture-proof lining to ensure stability during storage and transportation.

Dextrose Monohydrate is produced by enzymatic hydrolysis of starch, followed by purification, crystallization, and controlled drying. The result is a white, odorless, crystalline powder with mild sweetness and uniform particle size. As a reducing sugar, it contributes to flavor and color development through the Maillard reaction, particularly in bakery and confectionery products. Compared to sucrose, it provides a softer mouthfeel and more balanced sweetness, making it suitable for dairy, beverages, and nutritional formulations.
