Natural Capsanthin is a food-grade primary red carotenoid pigment extracted from red peppers (Capsicum annuum), used as a natural red-orange food colourant without pungency.We supply bulk Natural Capsanthin sourced from leading China manufacturers, available in powder and oil forms to meet global food industry demand. Our Natural Capsanthin is widely used in sausage colouring, dairy colouring, seasoning colouring, dressing colouring and poultry feed pigmentation.
Capsanthin is the dominant carotenoid in ripe red capsicum peppers, responsible for their characteristic red colour. Natural capsanthin extract (paprika extract) is processed to maximise colour while minimising or eliminating capsaicin (heat).
This results in a non-pungent red colourant. Available in various colour strengths (measured in ASTA or Colour Units), it is one of the most widely used natural red colourants globally.
