Liquid Glucose
Liquid Glucose, also known as Glucose Syrup, is a thick, viscous, clear or pale-yellow syrup made from the partial hydrolysis of starch. It is commonly derived from corn, wheat, rice, or potatoes and is widely used in the food industry for its sweetening properties, ability to retain moisture, and role in improving the texture and stability of food products.
Liquid Glucose is an essential ingredient in the food, pharmaceutical, and industrial sectors due to its ability to act as a sweetener, texture enhancer, and moisture-retaining agent. Its versatility ensures a wide range of applications, from candies to cosmetics.
Chemway is one of the Liquid Glucose, manufacturers, exporters, and suppliers in Fujairah, Sharjah, Abu Dhabi, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, Kuwait, Muscat, Dubai UAE.

Product Details
- Food and Beverage Industry
- Sweetener: Liquid glucose is used as a sweetener in a wide variety of food products, including candies, baked goods, soft drinks, and dairy products. It is less sweet than sucrose, allowing manufacturers to control the level of sweetness while benefiting from its other functional properties.
- Candies and Confectionery: Liquid glucose prevents sugar crystallization, making it essential in the production of hard candies, toffees, gummies, and caramels. It ensures smooth texture and glossy appearance.
- Baked Goods: In cakes, cookies, and bread, liquid glucose helps retain moisture, enhances texture, and prolongs shelf life by preventing staleness.
- Ice Cream and Frozen Desserts: It reduces the formation of ice crystals, giving frozen products a smoother and creamier consistency.
- Beverages: It acts as a sweetener and stabilizer in fruit juices, energy drinks, and soft drinks, enhancing the overall mouthfeel and shelf stability.
- Processed Foods: Used in sauces, canned fruits, and dressings to improve texture, stabilize formulations, and prevent crystallization during storage.
- Confectionery and Candy Industry
- Anti-Crystallizing Agent: In candy manufacturing, liquid glucose is used to prevent the crystallization of sugar, resulting in smooth, glossy, and stable candy products like hard candies, marshmallows, and nougat.
- Fondant and Fudge: It is used to create smooth textures in products like fudge, fondant, and cream fillings.
- Chewing Gum: Helps in creating a soft texture, improving the chewability, and preventing the gum from drying out.
- Bakery Industry
- Moisture Retention: Liquid glucose is commonly used in baked goods such as bread, cakes, and pastries to retain moisture, making the products soft, fresh, and extending their shelf life.
- Glazes and Icings: It is used to provide a smooth, glossy finish to glazes and icings while preventing sugar crystallization.
- Fillings and Jams: Liquid glucose stabilizes and sweetens fruit fillings, jams, and pie fillings, enhancing their texture and preventing crystallization during storage.
- Pharmaceutical Industry
- Oral Syrups and Medicines: Liquid glucose acts as a sweetener and thickener in medicinal syrups, cough syrups, and tonics. It improves the taste, viscosity, and shelf life of these formulations.
- Energy Supplements: Used in energy drinks and supplements as a quick and efficient source of energy, particularly in glucose-based formulations.
- Excipient: It is used as an excipient (inactive ingredient) in many drug formulations to improve the stability, texture, and taste of medicinal products.
- Dairy Industry
- Ice Creams and Dairy Desserts: Liquid glucose is used to enhance the texture of ice cream, frozen yogurts, and other dairy desserts. It helps reduce ice crystal formation, ensuring a smooth and creamy texture.
- Condensed Milk and Creams: In condensed milk and cream formulations, it acts as a sweetener and thickener, improving mouthfeel and texture.
- Puddings and Custards: Used in dairy-based desserts to improve stability and maintain smoothness.
- Brewing and Fermentation Industry
- Alcohol Production: Liquid glucose is used as a source of fermentable sugars in the production of alcoholic beverages, including beer, spirits, and liquors. It helps control the fermentation process and contributes to the alcohol content.
- Fermentation Substrate: Provides a carbohydrate source for yeast during the fermentation process, improving efficiency and controlling the production of alcohol.
- Cosmetic and Personal Care Industry
- Moisturizer and Humectant: Liquid glucose is used in cosmetic formulations such as lotions, creams, and shampoos as a humectant to retain moisture, improve texture, and prevent drying.
- Stabilizer: It helps improve the stability and shelf life of personal care products by preventing crystallization and phase separation.
- Tobacco Industry
- Tobacco Moisturizer: Liquid glucose is used in the tobacco industry to retain moisture in tobacco products, such as cigarettes and cigars. It ensures a smooth and consistent burn, enhancing the overall smoking experience.
- Flavor Enhancer: It can also be used as a carrier for flavorings in tobacco products.
- Animal Feed Industry
- Animal Feed Additive: Liquid glucose is added to animal feed to enhance the energy content and improve palatability. It also acts as a humectant, keeping the feed moist and fresh.
- Pet Food: Used as a sweetener and moisture-retaining agent in pet food formulations.
- Textile Industry
- Textile Sizing: In textile processing, liquid glucose is used as a sizing agent to strengthen fibers and reduce breakage during weaving.
- Finishing Agent: Helps enhance the texture and smoothness of textiles.
- Paper Industry
- Adhesive Agent: Liquid glucose is used in paper manufacturing as a binder and adhesive to improve paper quality, flexibility, and smoothness.
- Coating: It can be applied as a coating on paper products to improve gloss and printability.
- Chemical Industry
- Chemical Synthesis: Used in the production of various chemicals as a reactant or solvent, particularly in organic synthesis.
- Plasticizer: Liquid glucose is used in certain plasticizer formulations to improve the flexibility and durability of plastic and rubber products.
- Veterinary and Pet Care Industry
- Energy Supplement: Liquid glucose is used in glucose-based supplements for animals, especially in cases of hypoglycemia or low blood sugar.
- Veterinary Medicines: Used as a sweetener and excipient in liquid veterinary medications to improve palatability.
- Agriculture Industry
- Fertilizer Additive: In agriculture, liquid glucose is sometimes used in combination with fertilizers to improve nutrient absorption in plants
