Applications
Common uses
Whole brown flaxseed is used in bakery seed mixes, cereal ingredients and packing programs after food-use approval. Crushing purchases require a separate oil-content and processing specification. Buying detail: For visible bakery toppings, approve a representative colour sample and a broken-seed limit. Ask whether foreign matter was measured before or after final cleaning so quoted purity and delivered seed are compared on the same basis.
Export planning
Shipping & logistics
Request 25 kg or 50 kg lined bags, big bags or an appropriate bulk format. Confirm seed-tight closures, lot marks and clean, dry transport equipment against the origin and destination route. FOB, CFR or CIF can be quoted for suitable sea shipments at a named port under Incoterms® 2020. Confirm container or inland handover terms separately. Export readiness depends on lot release and the destination's required inspection, phytosanitary and origin documents.
