Ghoncheh Rice Flour 500g

Ghoncheh rice flour is pulverized using an advanced impact milling circuit coupled with an aerodynamic air-classifier, screening particles through 120-mesh vibratory sieves. Over 95% of the flour mass displays a granulometric profile below 125 microns. This ultra-fine particle distribution eliminates sandiness or grittiness on the palate in sensitive applications such as custards, halva, and Nan-e Berenji. The expanded specific surface area enhances hydration kinetics and gelatinization uniformity during thermal processing, providing a silky, velvety mouthfeel and structural cohesion in baked matrixes.

While raw rice grain is naturally gluten-free, the entire milling, conveyance, and packaging lines at Ghoncheh are strictly segregated in a dedicated allergen-controlled zone isolated from wheat processing operations. Validated clean-in-place (CIP) and air-purging protocols precede each batch. Routine analytical verification utilizes the competitive Sandwich ELISA (R5 Mendez method) to confirm that residual gluten levels remain strictly below 10 ppm, comfortably within the stringent threshold of the Codex Alimentarius Standard 118-1979 (max 20 ppm) for gluten-free labelling.

Each export shipping carton contains 20 retail boxes of 500g, yielding a net weight of 10.0 kg and an approximate gross weight of 10.8 kg. Boxes are crafted from heavy-duty 5-ply die-cut corrugated kraft board engineered for high stacking compression. A standard Euro-pallet (120 x 80 cm) accommodates 64 cartons arranged in 8 layers of 8 boxes each (totaling 640 kg net per pallet). A 40ft High Cube ocean container safely transports up to 22 strapped and stretch-wrapped pallets, maximizing payload density while protecting against maritime physical vibrations.

Post-milling, Ghoncheh rice flour is pneumatically conditioned to a moisture threshold strictly below 12.0%, effectively halting free fatty acid enzymatic breakdown and inhibiting mycotoxin-producing Aspergillus molds. The flour is sealed inside a three-layer metallized barrier pouch (PET / Met-PET / PE) boasting near-zero Water Vapor Transmission Rates (WVTR). This hermetic envelope shields the hygroscopic flour from ambient humidity, off-odors, and physical caking, even in humid coastal warehouses with relative humidity up to 90%.

The baseline wholesale MOQ is 100 master cartons (1.0 metric ton) for consolidated multi-product shipments, scaling to 500 cartons for dedicated full container load (FCL) orders. Production staging and factory dispatch require 5 to 7 working days post-deposit confirmation. Settlements are accepted in AED, EUR, or CNY through corporate escrow networks: structured typically as 30% advance cash deposit and 70% against clean Bills of Lading and export customs clearance documentation.

Inbound rice grains undergo comprehensive laboratory screening adhering strictly to Codex Alimentarius and Iran FDA thresholds. Inorganic arsenic levels are quantified via Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) to guarantee concentrations below 0.2 mg/kg. Lead and cadmium thresholds are audited below 0.1 mg/kg. Multi-residue pesticide screens are systematically verified using GC-MS/MS and LC-MS/MS spectrometry, with fully documented safety parameters published on every batch Certificate of Analysis (COA).

Every export dispatch is backed by an official regulatory dossier: Iran FDA Export Health Certificate, Certificate of Free Sale (CFS), Codex Compliance Declaration, Halal Certificate, and Chamber of Commerce legalized Certificate of Origin. For ministerial product registration dossiers in destination markets, Ghoncheh provides certified Technical Data Sheets (TDS), Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS), and comprehensive flowcharts detailing the cleaning, milling, and sifting procedures.
