Guide to Basics of Food Additives and Preservatives

Prevent spoilage and improve the quality of products by using food additives and preservatives

By Deneatra Harmon


Food additives and preservatives maintain the quality of foods as they move from farming or manufacturing methods to the market. Additives and preservatives used in food are labeled as colorants, flavorings, emulsifiers, nutrients and preservatives. The overall goals of food preservatives are to maintain freshness, appearance, color and nutritional value by keeping microorganisms, moisture or air away during packaging. Food additives and preservatives also maintain taste and improve flavor in most foods, and they control pH levels to reduce or block bacterial growth.

Salt and vinegar are common examples of food additives, used for centuries to prserve meat and pickled products. Other chemical food additives include sorbic acid and calcium propionate, which are added to baked goods, cheeses and salad dressings. Food preservative antioxidants like vitamins A and D, and riboflavin and niacin prevent flour, rice, milk and margarine from going rancid. Vanilla and sugar add flavors, while food dyes provide color. Some other examples of food preservatives include nitrites and nitrates in cured meats, and emulsifiers for thickening salad dressings and ice cream. When working with food preservatives and additives:

1. Research food additives and preservatives basics.

2. Find food preservative suppliers for your business.

3. Consider organic or natural food preservatives.

Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done


Research differences among food additives and preservatives in food

Determine which colorings, sweeteners, nutrients or emulsifiers are necessary for your products. Learn which chemical food additives are considered safe and which ones may be harmful.

I recommend: The U.S. Food and Drug Administration provides information on food additives and preservatives ranging from basic facts to health benefits to warnings. Food Safety Center for Science in the Public Interest also provides information on the safety and health risks of some food preservatives and additives.

Look for food preservative suppliers to provide food grade chemical additives for your products

Picking the right additives and preservatives can enhance the quality of your distributed foods and prevent spoilage.

I recommend: Emerald Performance Materials manufactures additives and preservatives for the beverage and food preservatives industry. Trans-Chemco offers food grade preservatives such as emulsifiers for food processing. Niacet produces food preservatives such as calcium propionate and sodium propionate.

Stock organic or natural food preservatives

Natural food preservatives come from vegetable sources such as beets, corn or soybeans. Beets produce powder to use as a food coloring, while soybean- and corn-based food additives produce lecithin that protects product consistency.

I recommend: Northwestern Extract Company produces artificial and natural flavorings for pharmaceuticals, sodas and food colorants. Alfa Chem also specializes in artificial and natural food additives and preservatives.

Tips & Tactics

Helpful advice for making the most of this Guide

  • •  Seeking FDA approval is one of the food additives and preservatives basics that food manufacturers must navigate. For new additive or preservative uses, scientific studies must be presented that show potential effects on animals or humans. The FDA also examines properties of the food additives to determine safety.

Guide to Food Additive and Preservative Distributors

Stock food additives and preservatives for use with shipping items and extending shelf life

By Niki Hampton


Food additive and preservative distributors offer a variety of food additives to be used in the food service industry to extend shelf life and preserve food for safer use at a later time. These are accessible through food additive makers, food preservative distributors, food additive distributors and food preservative wholesalers.

To save money, purchase from food additive manufacturers and food additive suppliers. To stock products from companies involved in food preservative distribution, you should:

1. Decide which food additives and preservatives you need for the successful shipping of your products.

2. Find reputable food additive manufacturers and distributors from which to purchase products.

3. Buy from food preservative wholesalers to save money on bulk items you need.

Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done


Decide which food additives and preservatives you need

Food preservatives are specifically designed to extend the shelf life of food such as with canned and pantry items. Food additives are for flavor, color or nutrition. Some additives are made of natural sources like soybeans and corn. There are also indirect food additives which are those trace additives that are absorbed into food from the packaging.

I recommend: Emerald Performance Materials manufactures and distributes a large variety of additives and food preservatives. You can shop according the use, such as additives for beverages. Trans-Chemco is a specialty manufacturer of silicone anti-foam emulsions like those used in foaming products, such as Reddy Whip, to keep the container from over flowing.

Find reputable food additive manufacturers and distributors

Working with reputable additive and preservative manufacturers and distributors is important to the safety of your products and food. The FDA and other organizations have create standards for food additives and preservatives. Make sure you are purchasing from companies that adhere to these regulations.

I recommend: Dynemic Products specializes in food coloring and offers a wide array of colors from which to choose; they have customization services as well. Their colors are listed in many different categories including primary, lake and FD&C color. K3 specializes in biotech based materials for food, pharmaceutical and other applications.

Buy from food preservative wholesalers

Purchasing food preservatives wholesale can save you money, especially if you need to purchase them in bulk. There are a number of different suppliers that offer wholesale food additives and preservatives.

I recommend: Northwestern Extract manufactures premium flavors and coloring with a specialty in beverage. Their chemists boast a combined experience of 50 years. Federated Mills is a additive and preservative manufacturer that offers chemicals such as inhibitors, gums, sweeteners and dough conditioners. All of their products are kosher.

Tips & Tactics

Helpful advice for making the most of this Guide

  • •  Be aware of the regulations set forth by the FDA and other food governing agencies to make sure the preservatives and additives are legal.

Guide to Supplies for Food Additives and Preservatives

Find equipment for working with flavoring syrups, emulsifiers and other food additives and preservatives

By Deneatra Harmon


Food additives and preservatives require the appropriate machinery, dispensing and storing equipment, whether you produce the chemical food additives, or rely on food preservative suppliers to deliver additives and preservatives for your baked goods or beverages. If you work in the food preservatives industry, consider supplies that align with the need for using food additives and preservatives in your products. In other words, supplies and other equipment for food additives and preservatives must be beneficial in maintaining freshness, consistency, texture, taste, color and nutrient levels that help sell your products.

Supplies for food additives and preservatives include liquid and solid separation equipment, food preservation presses, industrial mixers, homogenizers, pasteurizers and dispensers. Conveyors, storage and processing tanks, and vacuum tumblers that marinate or cure meats are also common equipment used for preservatives in food. Chemical food additives such as corn starch, potassium sorbate and sodium nitrate are usually available as syrup, crystals or powders that must be ordered from food preservative suppliers.

1. Find food preservative suppliers that sell equipment for your manufacturing or marketing needs.

2. Keep supplies for additives and preservatives clean to prevent cross-contamination.

3. Know where to go for maintenance and repair services of your food service machinery.

Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done


Shop for food preservative suppliers

Find equipment, chemicals and other materials for your manufacturing or marketing needs.

I recommend: Genemco stocks new and used food service equipment such as mixers, fillers and homogenizers for food grade preservatives. Lyco Manufacturing supplies pouch pasteurizers, canners, blanchers and coolers used with food additives and preservatives. Trans-Chemco manufactures food-grade silicone antifoam emulsions for additives and preservatives. Food additives and preservatives such as FD&C dyes, defoamers and dispersing pigments can be found at Emerald Performance Materials, which also carries chemical additives such as benzoic acid, sodium benzoate and cinnamic acid.

Consider cleaning agents to prevent cross-contamination of food additives

Some machines are equipped to pasteurize or clean products to prevent cross-contamination.

I recommend: Sani-Matic manufactures and distributes sanitation equipment used with supplies for food additives and preservatives. Chaska Chemical produces disinfectants and sanitizers for equipment and supplies used for food additives and preservatives.

Make sure food preservative suppliers provide extra services

Consider repair and other services so that your machines continue to run efficiently, and you can safely maintain your food preservatives supplies.

I recommend: CHL Systems offers repair and preventative maintenance services for food preservative supplies and other equipment. Engineering, repair and rebuilding services for chemical food additives supplies are available at Davron Technologies.

Tips & Tactics

Helpful advice for making the most of this Guide

  • •  Packaging must be safe for contact with food, according to FDA standards. Some examples include shrink wrappers, vacuum sealers, bottles, bags, cartons and boxes.
  • •  Equipment and supplies for food additives and preservatives must be made from materials that don't corrode, so they don't contaminate the food or beverage. Food preservative equipment is made from high-quality plastic or stainless steel, while nickel alloy equipment is used for beverage processing.
