FAQ
This SKU is packed in approx. 800g primary boxes, packed 12 units per 5-ply heavy-duty kraft master carton (approx. 10 kg gross weight). Designed for international export transit, cartons tolerate stacking up to 10 tiers on Euro or standard pallets (80 to 100 master cartons per pallet position).
Compression utilizes controlled pneumatic and hydraulic pressure calibrated precisely for semi-dry date pulp. The cycle purges ambient air between dates and integrates natural nectar across the batch without crushing the internal pit or turning fruit into puree; individual dates separate cleanly upon serving.
Kabkab dates boast a regulated moisture level of 16-18% and a natural Brix reading exceeding 68 degrees. Dominant natural reducing sugars (fructose and glucose) maintain low water activity (Aw < 0.65), mitigating yeast fermentation and mold risks during ambient cool storage.
Shipments are accompanied by Phytosanitary Certificates issued by Iran's Plant Protection Organization, accredited lab Certificates of Analysis (covering aflatoxins, heavy metals, organophosphate pesticides, and microbial counts), and Chambers of Commerce Certificates of Origin under ISO 22000 standards.
No. The glistening nectar visible in the pack is 100% natural exudate yielded by the fruit's own cell walls during calibrated compression. Zero glucose syrups, artificial sweeteners, paraffin glazing agents, or chemical preservatives are used.
Optimal warehouse storage requires ambient temperatures of 10°C to 15°C and relative humidity below 60%. For stockpiling exceeding 6 months in hot climates, refrigerated storage at 4°C to 8°C is recommended to prevent sugar crystallization (blooming) and darkening.
Wholesale domestic distribution starts at an MOQ of 100 master cartons, whereas export programs require a minimum of one 20ft FCL (approx. 12 to 14 metric tons). Export deliveries are supported under EXW (Factory), FOB Bandar Abbas, or FCA border points with full customs clearance support.
