ARALCO’s Commitment to Natural Innovation

In Tunisia, the demand for colourful, appealing, and healthy food products continues to grow. As a specialist in food colouring creation in Tunisia, ARALCO responds to this evolution with an innovative and responsible approach.
Our colourings are designed to visually enhance your culinary creations while meeting growing consumer expectations for naturalness, transparency, and quality.

Understanding Food Colourings – Role and Use

Main Function

Food colourings improve the visual appeal of products, making them more appetizing and appealing. A beautiful colour catches the eye and encourages purchase especially in processed or ready-to-eat items.

Types of Colourings

 There are natural colourings (extracted from fruits, vegetables, plants, algae, etc.) and synthetic ones (chemically created but approved by legislation). ARALCO prioritizes natural sources to meet the rising demand for healthier, more authentic products.

Various Applications

Colourings are used in a wide range of products: candies, yoghurts, sodas, sauces, pastries, creams, ready meals, and more. Creating food colourings in Tunisia requires a deep understanding of the specific needs of each product type.

Strict Regulations

Whether natural or synthetic, every colouring is subject to rigorous standards defined by health authorities (such as the Codex Alimentarius or the European Union). ARALCO ensures full compliance with these regulations to guarantee safety and conformity.

Technical Expertise in Formulation

Choosing a colouring involves numerous technical factors: compatibility with the product’s pH, resistance to light or heat, interaction with other ingredients… Our technical teams adapt each creation to both local and international industrial requirements.

The Art of Colour in the Service of Gastronomy

Creating food colourings is a true skill combining science, nature, and creativity. At ARALCO, we develop pigment solutions that meet aesthetic, technical, and regulatory expectations.

Our experts select high-quality raw materials—such as beetroot, turmeric, spirulina, and chlorophyll—to create stable, natural, and safe colourings, adapted to each product’s cooking conditions, pH levels, and shelf life.
