In the past 2024, the food industry has embraced a healthy and green trend, with salad bars, homemade yogurt bowls; and fruit and vegetable drinks gaining popularity this year, such as Slimming bottl, Cat grass juice and so on. There are a number of brands have been arranged vegetable tea and vegetable juice. Industry insiders note that while some young consumers may not prefer traditional vegetable intake, they increasingly pursue a healthy and high-quality lifestyle. As consumer’s health awareness grows and demand for natural beverages rises, vegetable teas and juices are expected to become important growth fields in the beverage industry.

One of the prominent fast-food chain has recently opened ‘new model restaurants’ in Guangzhou and Shanghai, replacing fried chicken and cola with affordable, healthy, and light meals.

看来，“绿色未来”指的不仅是生态经济发展，也是我国消费者的饮食风向。而消费者越来越喜爱的绿色，可以通过叶绿素铜钠盐来完成色彩打造。

This shift reflects the growing ‘green future’, encompassing both ecological economic development and consumer dietary preferences. The green color that consumers are increasingly fond of can be completed by Sodium copper chlorophyllin.

Sodium copper chlorophyll is a food additive made from mulberry leaves and silkworm sand by saponification and copper substitution. The main component is a mixture of two salts, sodium copper chlorophyll a and sodium copper chlorophyll b. It is easily soluble in water, almost insoluble in low alcohol, ether, petroleum ether, insoluble in chloroform andgrease. Slightly soluble in ethanol,soluble in glycerol and propylene glycol. The aqueous solution is transparent blue-green with no precipitation. Under acidic conditions (pH below 6.5) or in the presence of calcium ions, there is precipitation. It has good heat resistance, and when PH value is less than 6 precipitation occurs. The product has strong light resistance and decomposes when heated above 110℃. In case of hard water or acidic products or calcium-containing products, precipitation can occur. The maximum absorption peaks were found in the wavelength ranges of 405nm±3nm and 630nm±3nm.

Product quality standard National Food safety standard for food additive Sodium copper chlorophyllin GB 26406-2011 stipulates the sensory, physical and chemical indicators as following:

叶绿素铜钠盐是联合国粮农组织(FAO)、世界卫生组织(WHO)和我国食品添加剂标准委员会批准使用的一种天然水溶性食用色素，已通过了美国FDA在内的多国食品安全认证，其全球认证的特性使得企业能够迅速进入对天然成分需求旺盛的国际市场，在多种食品生产行业都能看见其身影。

在冷冻饮品（03.04食用冰除外）（食品分类号：03.0）、果蔬汁类及其饮料（食品分类号：14.02）和糖果（食品分类号：05.02）的加工生产中，叶绿素铜钠盐的应用尤为广泛。

Sodium copper chlorophyll is a natural edible water-soluble food pigment approved by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the World Health Organization (WHO) and China's Food Additive Standards Committee. It has passed the food safety certification of many countries, including the United States FDA. Its global certification characteristics enable enterprises to quickly enter the international market with strong demand for natural ingredients. It can be found in a variety of food production industries.
