Products Description

 

Premium Beet Red Powder: 100% beetroot-derived natural colorant (betanin ≥0.5%) for juices, confectionery, cosmetics. FDA-approved, vegan, non-GMO. Bulk supply.

Our Beet Red Powder is a premium natural red pigment extracted from the roots of Beta vulgaris (beetroot), renowned for its vibrant crimson to purple-red hue. This water-soluble powder derives its color from betalains-bioactive compounds including betanin (the primary pigment) and vulgaxanthins-offering both visual appeal and antioxidant properties.

Produced via a gentle water-based extraction process (no chemical solvents), our Beet Red Powder retains 95%+ of the beetroot's natural betalains while ensuring a clean, neutral taste. Unlike synthetic red dyes (e.g., Red 40), it is free from artificial additives, allergens, and GMOs, making it ideal for "clean label" products.

Manufactured in GMP-certified facilities, each batch undergoes rigorous testing to meet global standards for heavy metals, microbial contaminants, and pigment stability. It appears as a fine, free-flowing red to purple powder with excellent solubility in water and stability in acidic conditions (pH 3–7), making it a versatile natural colorant for diverse applications.

Quality Control Measures for Beet Red Powder

Extraction QC

  • Monitor temperature (50°C ±2°C) and pH (4.5 ±0.2) to maximize betalain yield.
  • In-process HPLC testing after extraction to ensure betanin concentration ≥0.8% (before concentration).

Purification QC

  • Filtration efficiency checks (0.45μm membrane integrity) to remove particulate matter.
  • Concentration monitoring (Brix 30–35) to ensure optimal solids content for drying.
 

Final Product QC

  • Color Intensity: Spectrophotometric analysis (λ=535nm) to verify consistent hue and strength.
  • Pigment Content: HPLC to confirm betanin percentage (±0.1% tolerance).
  • Safety Testing: ICP-MS for heavy metals; microbial screening (USP <61>); mycotoxin testing (aflatoxin B1 ≤2ppb).
  • Stability Testing: Accelerated aging (40°C/75% RH for 30 days) to verify 24-month shelf life.

What is Beet Red Powder?

It's a natural red pigment extracted from beetroots (Beta vulgaris), standardized to contain 0.5–2.0% betanin-the compound responsible for its vibrant crimson to purple color.

How does it compare to synthetic red dyes?

Unlike synthetic dyes (e.g., Red 40), Beet Red Powder is 100% plant-derived, free from artificial chemicals, and offers antioxidant benefits. It's ideal for "clean label" products but is less stable in high heat/alkaline conditions.

What applications is Beet Red Powder best for?

It excels in acidic, low-heat products like fruit juices, yogurt, gummies, and cosmetics. It's also used in plant-based meats and pharmaceuticals for natural coloring.

What's the recommended usage level?

Typically 0.1–1%, depending on desired intensity: 0.1–0.3% for subtle tints, 0.5–1% for vibrant red/purple hues.

Is it stable in heat or alkaline conditions?

It's stable in acidic environments (pH 3–7) and short-term heat exposure (≤80°C). It fades in alkaline conditions (pH >7) or prolonged high heat (>100°C).

What certifications does your Beet Red Powder have?

It's FDA GRAS, EU E162-approved, organic, kosher, and halal certified. Each batch includes a COA with HPLC results.

What's the shelf life and storage requirement?

24 months when stored in a cool (15–25°C), dry area in sealed containers. Avoid direct sunlight and high humidity.
