Technical & procurement detail
What Safflower Yellow is and what it does+
Safflower yellow is a water-soluble colour from Carthamus tinctorius florets. It provides clean yellow shades in aqueous systems without the oil-solubility handling of carotenoids.
Light stability in clear packaging+
Safflower yellow fades under prolonged light exposure, which shows first in clear bottles. Evaluate the colour under the actual packaging and light exposure the product will meet.
Authorisation status varies+
Permitted use differs between markets, with wider acceptance in parts of Asia. Confirm status for the destination market before locking the formulation.
Regulatory status is destination-specific+
Permitted use, permitted level and required labelling for this material differ by country, by product category and by intended claim. Allzone does not represent that the material is approved for your application in your market. Tell us the destination market and the finished-product category, and the available supplier documentation is provided so your regulatory team can complete its own assessment.
Documentation and specification+
Assay, particle size, solvent residue, microbiological limits and heavy-metal limits differ between producers and grades. Allzone confirms the applicable specification with the supplier before quoting and shares the technical data sheet, safety data sheet and certificate of analysis for the exact material offered, so the values you evaluate are the values you receive.
