Rare sugars

With expertise in separation and purification techniques, we are a leading supplier of speciality carbohydrates to the pharmaceutical, cosmetics, food and flavor industries.

We are able to meet the growing demand from the pharmaceutical industry for a wide range of speciality sugars with consistently high chiral purity. These can be used in medicines or as nutrients for cell culture media used in vaccine production.

Many of our rare sugars are extracted from plant biomass using a solvent-free process. Others are produced synthetically.

The DuPont™ Danisco® Rare sugars are used by food, flavor and nutraceutical companies, which demand consistent high quality, and by pharmaceutical companies as precursors for carbohydrate-based drugs. Their quality and benefits are also broadly appreciated within the cosmetics industry.
