GNT, a leading natural colour provider for the food industry, has launched a new oil-dispersible yellow concentrate made from turmeric under its Exberry product line. The Shade Bright Yellow – OD is a natural and clean-labelled liquid concentrate created through traditional physical processing methods, dispersing small turmeric-based powder particles in sunflower oil.
According to Sonja Scheffler, head of product management at GNT, “Our Exberry OD colours provide outstanding visual intensity in some of the most challenging applications and Exberry Shade Bright Yellow – OD is an exciting new addition to the range.”
The new launch helps food and beverage manufacturers achieve vibrant yellow shades in fat-based applications such as compound coatings, ice cream coatings, fat compounds for chocolate decorations and seasoning mixes for savoury snacks. Moreover, it is pumpable for low-water applications, making it easy to handle.
Turmeric is an on-trend and well-known ingredient that is approved for use in most countries worldwide and provides wonderfully vibrant yellow hues. GNT’s Exberry OD product line includes various other natural shades of red, pink, orange, blue, and green, as well as a safflower-based yellow, all made with natural processes, and plant-based from edible fruits, vegetables, and plants.
The food industry is rapidly evolving, and packaging plays a vital role in making a product stand out. Natural colouring solutions such as GNT’s Exberry product line help manufacturers in creating eye-catching and appetising food packaging that appeal to a growing green-conscious market.
As the demand for natural food packaging solutions is increasing, companies must adapt and incorporate nature-friendly packaging in their business model to stay ahead of the competition. Natural colouring solutions such as GNT’s Exberry product line are a step in the right direction.
