ANNATTO - NATURAL FOOD COLOURING (1/3)

Why Food Manufacturers Choose Annatto

As consumer demand for natural ingredients and clean-label products continues to grow, food manufacturers are increasingly turning to plant-based colouring solutions. One of the most widely trusted natural food colourants used around the world is Annatto.

Derived from the seeds of the achiote tree (Bixa orellana), Annatto delivers attractive colour shades ranging from pale yellow and golden orange to deep reddish-orange. Its versatility, natural origin, and excellent performance have made it a preferred colouring ingredient across numerous food categories.

At Dynamiko Food Ingredients, Annatto AC6 is supplied as a highly concentrated, water-based natural food colourant designed to provide consistent colour development across a wide range of food applications.
