Maïzly offers the first non-GMO corn-based milk alternative in Original and Chocolate flavors, each sold in 32-ounce shelf-stable cartons. Crafted primarily from water and soluble corn fiber, the formulation incorporates corn maltodextrin, coconut oil, and chickpea protein to achieve a dairy-like mouthfeel without nuts, seeds, or vegetable oils. Nutritionally, a single serving delivers eight grams of fiber—surpassing most plant milks—alongside vitamins A, D, and E and a good source of calcium, while maintaining lower sugar content than conventional cow’s milk. The product is certified gluten-free, allergen-free, vegan, kosher, and designed for versatile use in beverages, baking, and cooking applications.

From a sustainability perspective, Maïzly’s corn base is sourced from eco-efficient farms, reducing reliance on high-water-use crops like almonds and avoiding methane emissions associated with dairy production. The company employs aseptic, shelf-stable packaging that eliminates the need for cold-chain logistics, thereby lowering energy consumption and food-waste risk during transport and storage. By blending renewable plant fibers with minimal processing and leveraging long-lasting cartons, Maïzly addresses both environmental impact and supply-chain efficiency in the growing plant-based milk sector.
