Naturex supplies organic botanical extracts, natural colors and fruit and vegetable powders for use in a range of food, beverage and nutraceutical applications. Turmeric, moringa, acerola and cranberry are among those ingredients driving Naturex’s increased organic sales, and all will were a central focus for the company at the recent Engredea trade show in Anaheim, Calif. 

Naturex also showcased its traceability program, which guarantees that all of its organic extracts meet the highest standards of quality and authenticity.

The organic market is strategic for Naturex as it is at the center of our mission to bring cleaner, healthier and more nutritious natural ingredients to market,” says Timothée Olagne, Naturex marketing director for Nutrition & Health. “We are very well positioned and we will continue to develop our organic range of natural colors, functional botanical extracts and fruit and vegetable based ingredients.”

A new nutrition prototype based on organic moringa powder took take center-stage for Naturex at Engredea 2017.

It is combined with whole acerola powder standardized to 34% vitamin C and mushroom powder standardized to 5,000IU/g of vitamin D.
