Navigate Global Color Additive Approval with Strategic Regulatory Expertise
Bringing a food color additive to market in the U.S., EU, China, Canada, or Japan requires navigating region-specific regulatory frameworks, each with unique safety standards, petition processes, and labeling rules. In the U.S. and EU, color additives must be pre-approved through formal petitions demonstrating safety for intended use. In other global markets, ingredients must comply with positive lists, maximum use levels, and purity specifications.
