Aside from the attributes we mentioned above, titanium dioxide is known for its durability, which can create a pigment that’s extra long-lasting. On top of that, combined with other colors, titanium dioxide can instantly amplify color by providing intensity and brightness. That has made it particularly popular for foundation and lipstick formulas.

According to Procurement Resource, the price of Titanium dioxide is estimated to depict a declining trends in the upcoming quarter. The price trends will be mostly affected by the weakened demand from the paint and coatings industries and the rise in global inflation.
Production[edit]
The EU expert panel did not identify an immediate health concern linked to TiO2 when used as a food additive. However, due mainly to uncertainties concerning the safety of TiO2 nanoparticles, the panel concluded that TiO2 as a food additive (E171) could no longer be considered safe.


Overall, the precipitation of titanium dioxide is a complex process that requires careful control of various factors to achieve the desired product properties. By optimizing the precipitation percentage and carefully monitoring the precipitation process, manufacturers can produce high-quality titanium dioxide that meets the stringent requirements of their customers in the paints, coatings, plastics, and cosmetics industries.
Titanium dioxide (E 171) is authorised as a food additive in the EU according to Annex II of Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008.

- Customers today demand more than just a high-quality product; they seek assurance that their purchases align with ethical standards and ecological responsibility. Lack of transparency in the supply chain or concerns about labor practices can no longer be brushed under the carpet. In response, lithopone factories are embracing comprehensive certification programs that guarantee their operations are socially equitable and environmentally friendly. These initiatives include fair trade practices, zero-discharge policies, and strict worker safety guidelines.
- Another aspect to consider is the supplier's capacity and capability to meet specific volume requirements. Large-scale operations often have the infrastructure to support bulk orders consistently over long periods, making them ideal for major manufacturers. Smaller suppliers might offer more flexibility and personalized service, which could be beneficial for smaller businesses or those seeking custom formulations.
The main food categories contributing to dietary exposure of E171 are fine bakery wares, soups, broths and sauces (for infants, toddlers and adolescents); and soups, broths, sauces, salads and savoury based sandwich spreads (for children, adults and the elderly). Processed nuts are also a main contributing food category for adults and the elderly.
