Sensient Pharmaceutical Coating Systems: Spectrafine Plating Grade Natural Colorants

Sensient Pharmaceutical Coating Systems introduces Spectrafine natural colors, an innovative colorant that expands shade range and application options for nutraceuticals. Sensient Pharmaceutical Coating Systems is a part of Sensient Food Colors LLC, which is a business unit of Sensient Technologies Corporation.

Spectrafine is a proprietary technology that provides innovative solutions and advanced performance for the nutraceutical industry. “This unprecedented evolution in natural color application technology is unique to Sensient, further demonstrating our leadership position as a coatings and color innovator,” says Steve Strickland, General Manager of Sensient Pharmaceutical Coating Systems.

“Spectrafine is a natural product that delivers plating characteristics commonly found in FD&C lake pigments. In other words we have a natural solution that behaves like a lake in multiple applications.  We're particularly excited to offer this solution because it aligns with consumer demand for ingredients that promote health and wellness and provide natural ingredients. Our customers will find Spectrafine to offer increased ease of use compared to dyes, and end users will notice the clean flavor that Spectrafine imparts in dry blends, powdered drink mixes, and chewable tablets.”
