In response to the new European Commission directive regarding additives, Symrise developed SymColor®, a portfolio of colorants that complies with the new legislation.
The new EC directive on food additives becomes mandatory on January 20, 2010. Consequently, from July 20, 2010, onward. foods which contain certain artificial colorings (including orange yellow, quinoline yellow and azorubine) will have to be labeled with the warning “may have an adverse effect on activity and attention in children.”
SymColor provides an extensive selection of colorants for use in food, letting manufacturers select the exact shade they want and still comply with labeling requirements.
