Using Maurten’s patented hydrogel technology, this larger-format gel offers the same clean, efficient performance as the original Gel 100, just more of it. Each 65g sachet encapsulates energy in a biopolymer matrix that enables smooth stomach passage, reducing the risk of GI distress during even the most intense efforts.

Crafted with just six natural ingredients, Gel 160 is free from added colours, preservatives, and flavours, offering a clean fuel source trusted by elite athletes across disciplines. The blend of fructose and glucose in a 0.8:1 ratio allows for optimal carbohydrate uptake of up to 100g per hour, ensuring your energy needs are met even in the most demanding sessions. Whether you're fuelling a long training run or racing towards the finish line, Gel 160 is built to support sustained performance.

This gel is ideal when fuelling opportunities are limited, think longer races, challenging terrain, or fast-paced events where grabbing nutrition can be tricky. Instead of taking multiple small gels, you can reduce the number of sachets carried while still meeting your carb targets. It's efficient, practical, and rooted in real-world athlete feedback, a direct result of Maurten’s close collaboration with endurance sport professionals.

Whether used before, during, or after exercise, Gel 160 adapts to your needs. It’s part of a flexible fuelling system that includes the smaller Gel 100, allowing you to customise your intake based on session length, intensity, and gut tolerance. Every gram of carbohydrate counts, and Maurten ensures each gel delivers clean, reliable energy when it matters most.

Maurten Gel 160 is powered by patented hydrogel technology, which allows carbohydrates to pass quickly through the stomach to the intestine for rapid absorption with minimal stomach issues. The unique biopolymer matrix forms a gel in the stomach, enabling the smooth transport of 40g of carbs per sachet, a significant amount for athletes needing to hit 90–100g/hr intake goals. The 0.8:1 fructose to glucose ratio further enhances absorption, ensuring energy is delivered efficiently to working muscles.

Because it’s made with only six natural ingredients and contains no added preservatives, colours, or flavours, Gel 160 remains gentle on the gut, even in hot or high-intensity conditions. It's a smarter way to fuel, and part of a complete system that can be tailored to your session needs.
