What Is Beta-Carotene？

β-carotene (C40H56) is one of the carotenoids, an orange-yellow fat-soluble compound. It is the most common and stable natural pigment in nature. It belongs to the family of natural chemicals (such as carotene or carotenoids). It exists in large quantities in plants, giving fruits and vegetables a full yellow and orange color.

β-carotene is a precursor of vitamin A. It exists in large quantities in plants, giving fruits and vegetables a full color. Due to its coloring, antioxidant and nutritional enhancement functions, β-carotene is widely used in ordinary foods and health care products.

β-carotene has been recommended by the Joint Expert Committee on Food Additives of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and the World Health Organization as a food additive and nutritional fortifier. It has been recognized as a Class A excellent nutritional pigment and has been approved for use in 52 countries and regions around the world.

Beta Carotene Applications

Our Natural Beta Carotene Powder delivers versatile benefits across industries, leveraging its dual role as a nutrient and pigment.

• Colorant

β-carotene is an edible oil-soluble pigment. Its color can cover all colors from red to yellow due to the difference in concentration, so it has attracted attention from the food industry. It is very suitable for the development of oily and protein products, and is used as an edible orange pigment and nutritional enhancer, such as margarine, capsules, fish paste products, vegetarian products, and instant noodles. The microencapsulated β-carotene can be converted into a water-soluble pigment and can be used in almost all foods. It can also be used for tablet sugar coating coloring, and its color and stability are better than lemon yellow and carmine red complex sugar coating methods.

• Dietary Supplements

A key ingredient in multivitamins, capsules, and powders targeting vitamin A support, immune health, and antioxidant protection. Its natural origin makes natural beta carotene powder ideal for “clean label” supplements, providing a safer alternative to high-dose synthetic vitamin A.

• Functional Foods & Beverages

Used as a natural colorant in dairy products (yogurt, cheese), plant-based milks, juices, and breakfast cereals-replacing synthetic dyes like sunset yellow. It enhances visual appeal while boosting nutritional profiles with vitamin A activity, appealing to health-conscious consumers.

• Confectionery & Baked Goods

Added to candies, cookies, and snacks to achieve vibrant orange-red hues. Natural beta carotene powder retains color stability during baking, ensuring consistent product appearance without artificial additives.

• Cosmetics

Formulated into creams, lotions, and lip balms for its antioxidant properties and natural coloring. It helps protect skin from oxidative damage while adding a subtle, natural tint to formulations.

• Animal Feed

Mixed into poultry, livestock, and aquaculture feed to support vitamin A levels, improve skin/feather health, and enhance egg yolk/meat pigmentation. Poultry farmers rely on it to achieve richly colored egg yolks without synthetic carotenoids.

Why Choose Our Beta Carotene Powder?

• Customized formulation

We can adjust the formula of Carotene according to the requirements of customers. We have a professional R&D team that can adjust the raw material ratio of the product according to customer needs and application fields to achieve the best efficacy and stability. Whether it’s increasing specific nutrients, or reducing the amount of certain ingredients, we can make individual formula adjustments.

• Easy Mixability

Because our Carotene Extract has good solubility, it can be easily mixed into a variety of foods and beverages, including different types of food products such as liquids, semi-solids, and solids. Whether it is hot or cold beverages, pastries, dairy products, or sauces, it mixes well with Carotene Powder to achieve an even color distribution.

• Special process

In order to obtain high-purity β-carotene, we need to process and separate the extracted materials. In this process, we will use a series of technical means, such as ultra-fast centrifugation, thin-layer chromatography, chromatography, etc., to remove impurities and separate the target substances separately. This helps remove other unnecessary ingredients and preserves the high purity of beta-carotene and its active ingredients.
