Premium raw laser-sorted sunflower seeds from Romanta featuring elongated jumbo caliber, plump kernel fill, and zero hollow seeds for roasting and confectionery.
FAQ
Incoming batches pass across densimetric gravity tables and calibrated air-classification ducts that pneumatically reject lightweight, unfilled hulls. Multi-spectral optical sorters subsequently eliminate discolored or split hulls. Total hollow seed count is kept strictly below 1.0%, and physical foreign matter (twigs, field stones, dust) is certified below 0.2%.
Seeds are calibrated using international slotted vibrating screen sieves. Romanta segregates stock into distinct commercial size fractions (22/64, 24/64 inches and above). This uniform sizing profile guarantees synchronized thermal conduction during commercial batch roasting, avoiding scorched or under-roasted seeds.
Grain moisture is certified strictly below 8.0% to inhibit lipase enzyme degradation and lipid hydrolysis. Multi-layer protective woven sacks block external humidity. Warehousing in shaded, climate-controlled spaces below 15°C stabilizes peroxide and free fatty acid values well within premium culinary standards.
The standard industrial MOQ is 1,000kg (40 bags of 25kg each). Export consignments are loaded as palletized 20ft full containers (approx. 20 to 22 metric tons), while retail accounts can procure master cartons of 900g vacuum-sealed pouches starting at 500kg.
Consignments undergo HPLC assays to verify total absence of mycotoxins/aflatoxins (B1, B2, G1, G2), alongside GC-MS screenings for pesticide and herbicide residues. A formal Certificate of Analysis (COA) conforming to IFDA benchmarks and Codex Alimentarius guidelines is attached to every consignment.
The 25kg sacks are manufactured from high-density woven polypropylene with an integrated inner polyethylene film liner, eliminating water vapor transmission in humid port transit. Reinforced bottom chain stitching withstands drop impacts from 1.5 meters, permitting safe pallet stacking up to 10 tiers high.
Commercial buyers can request 1kg to 2kg reference samples from active lots for roasting trials in their own facilities. Upon sample approval, proforma invoices with tiered volume discounts are issued; accredited buyers can utilize 30 to 60-day credit windows backed by formal banking instruments.
