Titanium dioxide food grade Introduction
Titanium dioxide food grade is used in the food industry to make food look brighter and more appealing.
A naturally occurring material, titanium dioxide used in food is the purified form of an oxide of titanium, the ninth most abundant element on the planet.
Known as TiO2 or in food as the food colourant E171, it complies with current European legislation, which means it does not contain substances that are considered dangerous to consumers.
