About Food Additives

What are E Codes? E codes are an international numbering system that identifies additives approved for use in food products by the European Union.

Categories: Colorants add color to foods, while sweeteners are used as sugar substitutes. Other additives offer preservative, thickening and stabilizing properties.

Safety: All E-coded substances have been determined and approved in accordance with international food safety standards.
