XIVIA® Xylitol
A natural choice for the health-conscious consumer
- Health Benefits
- Regulatory
- Sustainability
Xylitol is a naturally occurring five-carbon polyol, found in many fruit and vegetables, that’s also produced by the human body. It is a pure and natural sweetener that has unique oral health benefits, providing all the taste and sweetness of sugar with only half the calories.
XIVIA®— The most Sustainable Xylitol available.
First produced in Finland in 1975, XIVIA® Xylitol is the first and only large scale, commercially available wood-based xylitol in the world. The Nutrition & Biosciences Wood Based integration concept (DWB) is a circular economy process that uses minimal energy and virtually no chemicals. This leads to a considerably lower environmental footprint than conventional corncob-based xylitol.
