According to the latest research, the global Sorbitol market size was valued at USD 2067.7 million in 2022 and is expected to expand at a CAGR of 6.96% during the forecast period, reaching USD 3096.3 million by 2028.
Sorbitol can be produced by the reduction of glucose. It is widely distributed in pears, peaches and apples, and the content is about 1% to 2%. Sorbitol is a useful ingredient in foods and beverages, because it is low in calories, so it can effectively replace sugar.
Drivers
With the development of social economy, people's living standards have been continuously improved, and the consumption of polyol food, cosmetics and sanitary products has been gradually expanded. As consumers become more aware of healthy products, the market for sugar-free foods will continue to expand, and demand for sorbitol as a sweetener (edible sugar substitute) will increase as the market for sugar-free foods expands.

Restraints
Sorbitol has a variety of commercial and culinary uses as a sweetener. But research shows that heavy use of sorbitol may cause some gastrointestinal problems. Sugar alcohol will not be completely absorbed in the intestine, and sugar alcohol that has not been broken down will ferment in the intestine. In addition to causing flatulence, it will also increase the osmotic pressure in the intestinal cavity. Diarrhea, which is similar to the principle of lactose intolerance. Sorbitol intolerance may limit market expansion.
Opportunities
With the development of the society, people's increasing dependence on oil, oil as a non-renewable energy resource increasingly drying up, and sorbitol on instead of petroleum chemical raw materials, will play a more and more important role, therefore, for sorbitol production enterprises, increase investment in science and technology, using new technology, actively develop meet the needs of downstream products.
