WHY ARE DE (DEXTROSE EQUIVALENT) VALUES IMPORTANT?
The DE value is not only the degree of hydrolysis but also an important indicator of product features to master. Understanding the maltodextrin relationship DE value and product between physical properties is conducive to the correct choice of application of maltodextrin products. DE values are different in India based on production and applications in comparison with other countries as indicated in the table below.
The demand for Low DE maltodextrin is increasing in the Indian market mainly in the spreads and supplements sectors.
KEY PLAYERS IN THE INDIAN MARKET
The maltodextrin supply market in India is mainly contributed by domestic players. Maltodextrin is produced by Blue Ocean Biotech, Blue Kraft Agro, Cargill India, Gujarat Ambuja, Gulshan Poly, Roquette India, Sahyadri, ShreeGluco Biotech and Sukhjit Starch. The production split between hydrolysates by DE group is 60% in medium, 22% in standard, 18% in high/dry glucose and zero in low DE maltodextrin.
Government support for local production of ingredients to boost 'Make-in-India' is expected to changes in Indian bring in positive food ingredients and production and reduce import dependence. Increased domestic demand is reflected in increased maltodextrin production volumes when compared with last year (2020).
TRADE (IMPORT & EXPORT)
Low maltodextrin used in India is imported and comprises only 1% of total demand from China, USA, and others. Import of higher DE maltodextrin is not feasible, since the imported product is much more expensive than the locally available equivalent. Domestic demand is mostly filled by Indian producers. India exports 15% of its stranded (DE 1626) production.
