Product Highlights

Environmental Sustainability
Our technology replaces agriculture and farming with fermentation for production of food colors, and therefore offers to save lands, reduce carbon footprint, and reduce greenhouse gas emission.

Natural & Healthy
Our betalain pigments are powerful antioxidants and anti-inflammatory agents. Betalain pigments are natural nutrients that have been widely consumed by humans along history, and are mainly abundant in healthy fruit such as beetroot and cactus fruit

Cost efficiency
As a replacement for agriculture and farming, our fermentation technology eliminates the high costs of land processing, and presents a robust procedure for color production. Cost efficiency is further achieved due to the high color yield in yeast, and the short fermentation cycles.

High quality
Our colors are produced in high purity, due to the absence of plant material and due to the efficient color release by yeast. The high color purity contributes to the
competitive color stability to heat and light over current benchmark natural colors.

Broad color spectrum
Our colors fill a gap for the food industry by providing a natural solution for the full yellow to purple spectrum, including all shades of yellow, orange, red, pink, and purple. We offer unique color shades that current natural food colors are unable to provide.

Broad food applications
Our water-soluble pigments are highly compatible with multiple food categories including applications that dictates challenging conditions of food processing.
