Another factor to consider is customer service and after-sales support. With suppliers located in different countries, clear communication and reliable support are critical. Manufacturers who provide comprehensive technical support and guidance on their products can help clients navigate challenges that may arise during production.

Titanium dioxide is one of the most widely used white pigments, often used to add whiteness and brightness to products. It is used in the production of paints, coatings, plastics and other products to provide a white color or opacity.

Though the regulated use of titanium dioxide in food products is legal in the U.S. and Canada, it's banned in some other countries, notably throughout Europe. In May 2021, the European Food Safety Authority announced that titanium dioxide can no longer be considered safe as a food additive.
