Typical colour strength achieved: turmeric curcumin 95%+ purity, paprika oleoresin ASTA value 50,000–100,000, marigold lutein extract 80%+ purity (E1%1cm ≥200). Mechotech designs each plant to reach the client's target specification based on their raw material supply and end-market requirement.

Are natural food colours from Mechotech plants exportable to the EU and USA?

Yes. Our plants are designed to produce natural colours complying with EU Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008 (E100–E163 series), US FDA 21 CFR Part 73 exempt colour additives, and Codex Alimentarius standards — enabling full export qualification to all major global markets.

Can one Mechotech plant produce both water-soluble and oil-soluble natural colour extracts?

Yes. With appropriate solvent selection and processing stages, our plants produce both oil-soluble extracts (for fat-based foods, supplements, and cosmetics) and water-soluble spray-dried powders (for beverages, dairy, and confectionery) from the same botanical source — maximising plant utilisation and product range.
