The Technical Advantage of Marigold Extracts

SMO™ is a natural pigment derived from Marigold (Tagetes erecta) extracts. Rich in essential carotenoids like Lutein and Zeaxanthin, it does more than just color—it acts as a powerful antioxidant that supports the overall health and productive performance of the birds.

  • Standardized Precision: Consistently achieve a deep, uniform orange color with values between 11 and 12 on the Roche Yolk Color Fan (RYCF).

  • Proven Stabilization: Our technical studies show that coloration effectively stabilizes from the third week of inclusion in the balanced feed.

  • High Stability: Formulated with antioxidant resistance to ensure color stays vibrant and stable throughout the shelf life.

  • Clean Label Solution: Efficiently replace synthetic dyes with a safe, SENASA-certified natural alternative.
