In appearance it is a white hygroscopic spray-dried powder and is usually applied in soft beverages and energy drinks, infant foods, breweries, ice-creams, candy, and other types of processed food products. In pharmaceutical industry maltodextrin is used in the form of diluents in tablets and layering material for the microencapsulation of several complex nutraceuticals like vitamins. Furthermore, it is utilised as an essential horticultural insecticide both in the field and in greenhouses. Maltodextrin is also used as an application in breweries as it improves the head preservation and desiccation of the drink. The maltodextrin industry report comprises segments based on by source (corn-based, wheat-based, potato-based, cassava-based, and others like rice, banana, etc.), form (Spray-Dried Powder and Instantized or Agglomerated), application (Food and Beverages, Cosmetics and Personal Care, Pharmaceuticals, Daily and Fine Chemicals, and Others) and region (North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and MEA).

The demand for maltodextrin may come down in Latin America, South America, and Central Europe in the years to come due to the side effects and health concerns such as blood sugar, extra fat, allergic reactions, weight gain, chronic inflammatory diseases, etc. related to its consumption. Higher demand for gums as alternatives for glucose, dextrose and maltodextrin may also restrict market growth. Moreover, gluten intolerant people may also not choose products manufactured using maltodextrin.
