PRESS RELEASE

March 23, 2022

GNT will demonstrate how its clean-label EXBERRY^® Coloring Foods can be used to create eye-catching products at Food & Drink Expo in Birmingham (25-27 April 2022).

EXBERRY^® concentrates are made from edible fruit, vegetables, and plants using gentle, physical processing methods such as chopping and boiling. They support clean and clear label declarations and can deliver hundreds of vibrant shades in almost any food and drink application.

GNT (Hall 6, Booth K239) will be putting the spotlight on confectionery at Food & Drink Expo. In a live demonstration area, experts will create sugar-free pulled candies featuring a variety of EXBERRY^® shades. The company will also hand out colorful lollipops with a sherbet dip, showcase extruded cereals in shades from across the whole rainbow, and highlight examples of finished products.

Throughout the event, visitors will have the chance to talk to GNT’s technical experts about how EXBERRY^® can be used to meet their individual project requirements.

Michael Fallon, Sales Director at GNT UK, said: “Color is vital to brand identity, playing a crucial role in the perception and even the taste of food and drink. EXBERRY^® by GNT offers a spectrum of cost-effective solutions that enable manufacturers to achieve exciting visual differentiation along with completely clean and clear labels.”

EXBERRY^® Coloring Foods are made from non-GMO crops grown by farmers working as part of GNT’s vertically integrated supply chain. Due to the way they are made, they are also considered to be food ingredients rather than additives in the UK and EU and do not require E numbers.
