FAQ
Quince fruit is naturally packed with proanthocyanidins and clear phenolic tannins. During prolonged gentle simmering under controlled vacuum in an acidic sugar medium, these colorless compounds undergo thermal acid-catalyzed conversion into vibrant red anthocyanidins, creating a deep ruby glow without synthetic coloring.
Total soluble solids are certified at 65% to 68% Brix. Because quince is one of nature's richest sources of pectin, its native fibers cross-link with sucrose and citric acid to form a naturally firm, glossy jelly body that permanently resists syneresis and sugar crystallization over 24 months.
Packed 12 jars per heavy-gauge shrink-wrapped tray with a reinforced corrugated bottom pad (approx. 7.6kg gross pack weight), engineered for high pallet stacking stability during container ocean shipping.
A standard 20ft dry freight container accommodates approximately 1,800 to 2,000 shrink packs of 12 units on pallets (21,600 to 24,000 jars, equating to ~8.4-9.4 tons net, ~15.5 tons gross payload).
Poached quince is traditionally celebrated as a premier gastric tonic, strengthening the lower esophageal sphincter against acid reflux, soothing intestinal inflammation with mucilage, and toning cardiac rhythm.
Unopened, it retains peak quality for 24 months in ambient storage. Once opened, because it contains zero synthetic preservatives, mandatory refrigeration at 4-8°C is required, and clean, dry utensils must be used to avoid fungal spoilage.
The metal closure is applied via a high-speed steam-vacuum capper. As long as hermetic vacuum holds, the central button remains concave, producing an audible "pop" upon initial twisting to confirm genuine factory seal security.
