EXBERRY® Carotenes: plant-based yellow and orange colors for food and drink

The plant-based EXBERRY® portfolio includes natural yellow and orange beta carotene colors made from saltwater algae.  Supporting low cost-in-use, they deliver exceptional results in applications including soft drinks, cheese puffs, marshmallows, cheese, and breakfast cereals.

High-performing and versatile coloring solutions

EXBERRY® Carotenes deliver high-intensity yellow and orange shades at low dosages and have no impact on flavor. Available in liquid, powder, and oil-soluble formats, they are highly versatile and offer good light stability.

A more natural approach to producing colors from carotene

Our beta carotene colors are created in line with our commitment to using the most natural production methods possible. The pigments are extracted from the algae using only essential oil, allowing us to offer a high-quality product without the need for any carbon-based solvents.

The key sustainability benefits of EXBERRY® Carotenes

EXBERRY® Carotenes are derived from a highly sustainable source. The process of growing the Dunaliella Salina algae requires only saltwater, has no impact on biodiversity, and serves as a carbon sink. No pesticides are used and the only by-product is algal biomass, which is returned to the lake after harvesting.
