Lake Pigments

Lake pigments are certified, water-insoluble coloring agents used in foods, drugs and cosmetics.

If you have been using standard Lake products, you could reduce your Lake pigment usage by 15 to 50 percent simply by switching to Sensient Color Group's Lakes Superior. Manufactured by a true state-of-the-art process, Lakes Superior is more finely ground than other Lakes, creating more surface area for reflected light. The result: you save money by using less color in your finished products.

Even more efficient is Sensient Color Group's patented AQueous Dispersion technology. It takes less of an AQueous Dispersion to deliver the same result as a dry lake or sugar-based system.
