  • The motive to redeem the lost appeal of processed foods by presenting more appealing products to consumers has been favoring the market growth of the associated solutions, including food colorants.
  • The increasing demand and consumer preference for minimally processed foods and health-promoting properties of natural colorants are estimated to drive the natural color segment of the market, with the growth rate being almost double, as compared to the synthetic color segment.

Beverages Emerged as the Largest Consumer of Food Colorants

Beverages lead the Japanese food colorants market, as it accounted for the highest consumption rate among other industries. The escalating consumer preference for convenience foods is another factor boosting the market for on-the-go beverages, which is leading to new product launches and developments in the industry. Manufacturers are rolling out innovative products to fill the gaps to serve the needs of the application segment. For instance, in 2019, the Japanese firm, San-Ei-Gen, launched a red-radish-derived food colorant that does not impart off-flavors in applications, including beverages.
