Plump whole peeled plum tomatoes packed in thick natural tomato juice in an easy-open 400g lacquered tin, ideal for sauces, stews, and pizzas.
FAQ
Sahar 400g canned peeled tomatoes are packed 24 units per heavy-duty shrink-wrapped case featuring a reinforced corrugated bottom tray (approx. 11.0kg gross pack weight), engineered for optimal pallet stability during marine freight and domestic transport.
Under ISIRI and international Codex standards, the drained whole tomato weight is certified at a minimum of 60% to 65% of total contents (approx. 240-260g of solid fleshy tomatoes), with the remaining balance being thick natural tomato juice.
Sahar uses pressurized thermal steam peeling followed by brief vacuum release. This 100% physical process separates the tomato peel without damaging cell walls or lycopene layers, avoiding chemical caustic soda (lye) immersion entirely.
A standard 20ft dry container accommodates approximately 1,650 to 1,800 master cases of 24 units on pallets (39,600 to 43,200 cans, ~16-17.3 metric tons net, ~19-20 tons gross payload).
It functions as the premier culinary base for Neapolitan pizza sauce, slow-simmered bolognese and napolitana pasta sauces, Mediterranean ratatouille, and Middle Eastern stews, eliminating the labor and scrap of peeling fresh tomatoes.
The tin interior is lined with a high-acid resistant (HAR), double-coated food-grade epoxy-phenolic lacquer. This forms an impermeable barrier against aggressive natural tomato acids, preventing pinholing, can corrosion, and metallic flavor tainting over 24 months.
The whole peeled tomatoes are immersed in pure concentrated natural tomato juice extracted from the same fresh tomato batch, never in diluted plain water. This imparts exceptional body, richer mouthfeel, and deep natural tomato flavor to finished sauces.
