Barjil Premium Black Cumin (Nigella Sativa)

Barjil Black Cumin undergoes a triple-stage refinement process comprising mechanical sifting (destoning and sizing), air-vacuum dust extraction, and optical color sorting. The resulting batch achieves over 99.5% physical purity, totally devoid of soil particles, foreign botanical matter, or hollow seeds.

Iranian Nigella Sativa natively features a total fixed oil content between 32% and 36%, with essential volatile oils ranging from 1.0% to 1.5%. Laboratory assays confirm a high thymoquinone (TQ) concentration between 0.6% and 0.9%, making it premium raw material for cold-press extraction.

Standard packaging uses 25kg multi-wall laminated polypropylene bags with moisture-barrier inner liners to preserve volatile aromatic compounds. Flexible intermediate bulk containers (Jumbo Bags 500kg - 1000kg) or customized repacking for spice brands can be supplied under agreement.

The minimum order quantity is 10 bags (250kg) for domestic wholesale and 5 metric tons for export cargo. Barjil maintains an active processing and supply capacity exceeding 50 metric tons per month of standardized, clean Nigella Sativa.

Yes, all production batches undergo rigorous testing for total viable counts, yeast/mold, E. Coli, Salmonella, and Total Aflatoxins (B1, B2, G1, G2). Official lab certificates from accredited testing facilities accompany the Certificate of Analysis (COA) for international port compliance.

Key commercial applications include industrial bakery toppings, specialty cheese and dairy seasoning, raw oil cold-pressing, and herbal dietary supplement formulations. It is also broadly repackaged as a standalone culinary spice for retail store chains and food service sectors (HORECA).
