Celebrating Three Decades of Innovation at Lycored

Lycored, a leading player in the field of naturally derived carotenoids, proudly commemorates its 30th anniversary at the IFT FIRST Annual Event and Expo in Chicago. This milestone not only highlights the company's journey but also serves as a platform for launching an exciting range of nature-based color emulsions.

A Legacy of Quality and Innovation

Founded in 1995, Lycored has established itself as a pioneer in providing natural solutions for the food, beverage, and dietary supplement sectors. The company’s continuous drive for innovation has allowed it to unlock nature’s goodness, creating products that empower brands across various industries.

Lycored’s reputation has blossomed over the years, particularly in the face of rising consumer demand for clean label products and plant-based offerings. As the regulatory landscape around synthetic colors evolves, the need for trustworthy, wholesome alternatives becomes paramount.

Introduction of New Color Emulsions

At this year’s IFT event, Lycored is debuting three cutting-edge, stable color emulsions designed to meet diverse application needs in the food industry. The new offerings—StellarYellow A, StellarYellow C Clear, and OrangeOvation C Clear—are crafted to serve as effective replacements for common synthetic colors, particularly Yellow 5 and 6. These emulsions promise exceptional performance and longevity across various products, including plant-based beverages, gummies, and sauces.

• - StellarYellow A shines especially well in juice formulations, bringing a vivid color to any beverage.
• - StellarYellow C Clear adds brightness without the color spectrum, making it perfect for clear beverages and gummies.
• - OrangeOvation C Clear is engineered for long-lasting clarity and performance, catering to a wide range of applications.

In addition, these new offerings complement Lycored's established portfolio of lycopene-based red colors, providing alternatives to synthetic dyes like Red 3 and Red 40.

Consumer-Centric Approach

Megan Dunn, Senior Manager of Global Marketing at Lycored, commented on the company’s mission: “Our commitment over the last 30 years has been to empower manufacturers with high-quality, nature-driven ingredients that not only compete with but surpass synthetic options in performance and stability.”

The newly launched emulsions underscore Lycored's dedication to enhancing the sensory experience while adhering to clean label demands, ensuring consumers can enjoy products that align with their values.
