Galactooligosaccharides (GOS)

Lactose-derived oligosaccharide ingredient used as a functional carbohydrate in dairy, beverage and nutritional manufacturing.

Syrup versus powder format, oligosaccharide profile of the stream, residual lactose and monosaccharide presentation, viscosity and heat behaviour decide which lot fits.

Commercial variants of the same ingredient are handled inside this record, not as separate products. The variant you need — and its functional targets — is fixed with the specification at quotation.

This page carries no protein, fat, moisture, ash, lactose, mineral, activity, microbiological or shelf-life figure. Those values belong to a tested lot produced on a specific plant and process line, move lot to lot, and are quoted from supplier documentation for the material actually offered. Nothing on this page is a specification.

Canadian dairy origin is worked first whenever it is commercially and regulatorily available for the requirement, because domestic supply usually shortens the route and simplifies documentation for Canadian processors. Where Canadian supply is not available for the specification, the volume or the delivery window, the same requirement is opened to other qualified origins. Origin is an offer attribute, decided per enquiry.

Allzone trades this ingredient as a global B2B principal: sourcing is opened to every commercially suitable origin and supply is arranged to any destination we can legally and commercially serve. The origin actually offered is decided by the specification, the quantity, the delivery window and the landed economics of your enquiry — not by this page.

Dairy powders and dairy proteins are hygroscopic and heat-sensitive. Storage temperature, humidity control, pallet handling, container stuffing and transit season materially affect what arrives. Packing format, liner specification, container conditioning and any temperature-controlled routing are agreed as part of the offer, not assumed.

Milk is a declared allergen in most destination markets. Allzone publishes no allergen-free, segregated-line or cross-contact claim. The supplier's allergen control programme and allergen statement, together with any kosher, halal, non-GMO or animal-rennet-free declarations you require, are supplied as documentation with a specific offer.

Dairy is a controlled trade category. Depending on the origin and the destination, an offer may involve import or export permits, tariff-rate quota treatment, establishment registration, sanitary or veterinary health certification and destination-specific labelling. Allzone makes no approval, quota-access or admissibility claim on this page: the applicable route, permits and certificates are checked and confirmed in writing before an offer is treated as final.

Allzone makes no prebiotic, digestive, immune or other health claim for this ingredient, and asserts no permitted-claim status in any market. Claim eligibility and labelling are determined by the buyer against destination regulation.

Certificate of analysis, supplier specification sheet, safety data sheet where applicable, allergen statement, GMO and kosher/halal declarations where requested, sanitary or veterinary health certificate where the destination requires one, production and expiry lot data, packing list and lot traceability. Which documents apply depends on the destination and is confirmed before an offer is treated as final.

Every enquiry is quoted, never listed. Tell us the ingredient, the functional parameters you buy on, the quantity, the destination, the packing you need, any origin or certification preference, and the documents your quality team requires. We then run the supplier search, compare routes and return a landed offer.
