The term, Polyols is used in both, food and polymer chemistry sector. Polyols are predominantly used in polymer chemistry to manufacture polyurethanes which are largely used to manufacture polyurethane foams. An important end-product of the Polyol is the polyurethane foam, the usage of which is growing rapidly in the market.
Polyurethane foam is mainly used in flexible foam application, including furniture & bedding and the automobile interiors and footwear. Polyurethane foams are also used extensively for insulation applications in building & construction, automotive, furnishing, electronics, and packaging industry among other.
In the Food sector Polyols are known as sugar alcohols, carbohydrates that occur naturally in berries, apples, plums, and other foods. Sugar alcohols also are produced commercially from carbohydrates such as sucrose, glucose, and starch and are used in the preparation of low-calorie foods. Polyols are incompletely absorbed and metabolized in the body and contribute fewer calories than sugar. They do raise blood glucose levels after a meal but not as high as table sugar does.

Most Polyols are approximately half as sweet as sucrose and hence are used in the preparation of chewing gums, candies, ice cream, baked goods, fruit spreads, fillings and frostings, canned fruits, beverages, yogurt and table-top sweeteners.
Polyols are also used in medicines and pharmaceutical products such as cough syrups and throat lozenges along with toothpastes and mouthwashes. Alongside, adding sweetness, Polyols perform a variety of functions such as adding volume and texture to food, preventing the browning that occurs during heating, and retaining the moisture in foods.
