FiorioNat Carmine
FiorioNat Carmine is a water-soluble, orange to red to magenta shade carminic acid pigment that is derived from the female cochineal insect native to Peru. Introduced into Europe via the Aztecs, it has the advantage of being stable when exposed to heat, light, and oxygen and can be reacted with aluminum to create carmine giving bright and vibrant pink to red shades stable for use across many applications. At Nactarome, carmine and carminic acid are used to create distinctive shades in our FiorioNat range.
