Islandsun Indonesia is a seasoning company that prioritises the quality and safety of food, including the use of food additives such as food colorings in seasoning products. As a seasoning manufacturer applied in food and beverages, we ensure product safety by complying with the regulations of the National Agency of Drug and Food Control (BPOM) for the use of food additives such as food colorings.
Food Additives are intentionally added substances to food to enhance appearance, flavour, aroma, texture, and shelf life. In developing seasoning products, Islandsun Indonesia’s R&D team always pays attention to market trends and consumer preferences, while ensuring compliance with BPOM regulations.
Food colouring is an essential aspect of food, and Islandsun Indonesia ensures its use is safe and legal. There are two types of food colorings allowed for use in snacks, natural colorings, and synthetic colorings.
Natural colorings are derived from natural ingredients, such as turmeric which produces yellow, carotenoids from carrots and papaya that produce red, orange, and yellow; chlorophyll from leaves for green colour, carmine, which is usually obtained from insects or cochineal scale insects to give pink to red colour. Although natural colorings are considered safer, their colour variations are limited and tend to fade quickly. On the other hand, synthetic colorings are obtained from the synthetic process of chemicals or materials that contain natural colorings extracted chemically. Synthetic colorings have brighter colours, more stable, and more varied colour options that are unlimited. The use of these colorings is regulated by BPOM Regulation No. 11/2019.
In seasoning production, Islandsun Indonesia ensures the use of safe and legal BTP colorings. By prioritising the quality and safety of food, Islandsun Indonesia provides assurance of healthy and high-quality seasoning products.
