Sun Chemical Forms New Food and Nutrition Group
PARSIPPANY, N.J., U.S.A. – March 2, 2021 – Sun Chemical has formed a Food and Nutrition Group. The recently formed group will extend existing Sun Chemical and DIC Corporation expertise in color and algae cultivation to provide coloring solutions and nutraceutical ingredients to the dietary supplement, food and beverage industries.
The Food and Nutrition Group was developed as part of DIC Corporation’s vision of transforming portfolios to achieve continued future growth. The group will leverage Sun Chemical’s advanced research and development coloring expertise to support new product development initiatives for both natural and synthetic food color. The research and development team at DIC Corporation headquarters is actively working with venture capital groups in developing bio-based nutraceutical ingredients, and Sun Chemical is committed to grow the new business group and will make additional investments to accelerate its growth.
As part of the Food and Nutrition Group development, Sun Chemical has integrated the sales and marketing functions of Earthrise Nutritionals, a subsidiary member of DIC, into the organization. This includes the marketing and distribution of its Spirulina and LINABLUE® Spirulina Extract product lines, both of which are manufactured with FSSC22000 Standard.
