Crushing-Grade Flaxseed Supplier | Bulk Linseed
Crushing-grade flaxseed is quoted against the receiving plant’s seed specification and intended oil route. Zenith Eclipse separates edible-oil and industrial-use enquiries and requests the analytical basis needed to compare raw-seed offers.
Quality parameters
Technical specifications
Illustrative RFQ targets, subject to lot availability and buyer approval. These are not a stock COA or a universal grade. State the material, reporting basis, sampling and test method for each result; final acceptance limits belong in the contract. Seed oil content measures laboratory-extractable oil under the stated method. It is not a guarantee of a plant’s saleable oil yield.

Applications
Common uses
For pressing or extraction of linseed oil for the contracted edible or technical application. The resulting oil and meal require their own product specifications. Buying detail: Give the plant’s minimum oil requirement with its moisture basis and dockage adjustment. If oil acidity affects settlement, define whether the result is free-fatty-acid percentage or acid value and identify the test on laboratory-extracted oil.
Export planning
Shipping & logistics
Bulk loading, lined containers, big bags or 50 kg sacks can be assessed for the receiving plant. Confirm unloading equipment, seed-tight transport, moisture control and the nominated delivery window before contracting. 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.
