Choose CapColors® for the right reasons

CapColors® could be the answer if you are looking for increased coloring potency of natural colors – Improved pigment stability and cost efficiency.

Why?

  • Plant pigments in nature are stabilized in a matrix of sugars and hydrocolloids in e.g. plant material

  • Some extracted pigments, like beta carotene, become sensitive to light, oxidation and heat

  • To re-stabilize the pigments, they are encapsulated with food ingredients

  • The pigments are then able to retain their natural brightness and chromacity

With CapColors® you can solve issues like ringing, color-shifting, and color-migration in layered products, handling is easier, and it is cost-effective!

Four general facts about CapColors®

  • The encapsulation of sensitive pigments with food ingredients ensures their stability towards light, heat, oxidation, low pH, and processing steps

  • Encapsulation prevents color from migrating in layered products

  • Encapsulation enables pigments to retain their natural brightness and chromaticity. It can even reduce off-flavors

  • The extremely efficient products mean less pigment is required for good results, resulting in cost-efficient colors.
