Flax Seeds
Why Flax Seed Quality is Important? Flax seeds are widely used in health foods, bakery products, cereals, snacks and edible oil production. Flax seeds are naturally rich in omega-3 fatty acids (ALA), dietary fibre, protein and lignans. The quality of flax seeds depends on factors such as seed size, colour, purity, moisture, oil content and cleanliness. High-quality flax seeds should have a uniform appearance, natural colour, fresh aroma and clean taste. Flax seeds are available in different varieties, including golden flax seeds and brown flax seeds.
What precautions need to be taken while exporting Flax Seeds?
- Moisture: Flax seeds should be properly dried and maintained at a suitable moisture level to prevent mould, fungal growth and quality deterioration.
- Cleaning: Seeds should be thoroughly cleaned to remove dust, stones, stalks, husk and other foreign particles.
- Quality: Select mature, clean and uniform seeds with good natural colour, fresh aroma and characteristic taste.
- Sorting & Grading: Remove damaged, discoloured, broken and insect-affected seeds before packing.
- Oil Quality: Since flax seeds are naturally rich in oil, proper storage is important to minimize oxidation and rancidity.
- Pesticide Residues: The product should comply with the permitted pesticide residue limits of the destination country.
- Microbial Safety: Appropriate testing should be conducted according to the buyer's food-safety requirements.
