Annatto and paprika are the most commonly used orange natural colours and provide lively, energetic food and beverage experiences. They provide cost-effective and reliable shades – ranging from light golden yellow-orange shades to dark red-oranges – for a wide array of applications. These convenient colours are available in oil or water soluble forms, as well as, powders, suspensions, and emulsions – any form for any application. They are designed to provide vibrant, exciting shades for consumers while being easy to use in the manufacturing process.

Annatto

Annatto extract is a natural carotenoid colour extracted from the coatings of seeds from the tropical achiote shrub and can be used in either oil-soluble (bixin) or water-soluble (norbixin) forms. It ranges from yellow to orange to red-orange in hue depending on the application and dosage rate. This natural colour is a staple in the food and beverage industry, especially dairy, because it provides stable, economical orange shades. Certified Organic liquid and powder annatto is available.

Our annatto is available in a wide variety of forms and strengths, making it applicable for use in almost any application, and our strong global contracts with farmers ensure a stable transparent supply chain.
