Titanium dioxide production begins with the extraction of raw materials, typically ilmenite or rutile, from mines. In a white titanium dioxide factory, these minerals undergo a rigorous refining process that includes steps like sulfuric acid digestion, chloride process, or sulfate process, depending on the factory's technology and resources. The resulting titanium dioxide pigment is then purified, dried, and ground to achieve the desired particle size and quality.

While IARC listed titanium dioxide as “possibly carcinogenic to humans,” they also add that “there is inadequate evidence in humans for the carcinogenicity of titanium dioxide.” Of the four human studies that they reviewed, only one showed a potential risk for occupational workers inhaling titanium dioxide particles and lung cancer, while the other three showed no risk for cancer at all. And it’s key to note that IARC did not assess the effects of titanium dioxide found in foods.
