Description

Chlorophyll (CAS 1406-65-1 ), also designated E140i in food regulatory frameworks, is a natural green pigment extracted from plant material including grass, alfalfa, and nettles. It functions as a natural colorant in food, beverage, and cosmetic formulations where synthetic dyes are undesirable or restricted. In food and beverage manufacturing, it delivers stable green coloration. This pigment is used in products such as pasta, confectionery coatings, dairy alternatives, and soft drinks. Personal care formulators incorporate it into facial creams, serums, and cleansing products. A natural green tint and plant-derived positioning are commercially important for these applications. In the nutraceutical and supplement sector, it is used in green powder blends and liquid drops. It is also found in capsules targeting health-conscious consumer segments. Beverage producers working with clean-label or organic-certified product lines use it as a direct replacement for synthetic green colorants. Chlorophyll is supplied as a liquid extract, oil-soluble concentrate, or dry powder, depending on the intended application matrix. Standard grades include food-grade meeting E140i specifications. These grades comply with EU food additive regulations, as well as cosmetic-grade material. Purity and solvent profiles vary by supplier, so buyers should confirm extraction solvent compliance. Always ensure that the material meets relevant regional regulations for your specific industry. This ensures the highest quality and safety standards for your final consumer products.
