Applications
Common uses
Used in dal, soups, purées and dry ingredient blends after appropriate cooking or further processing. Buying detail: For repeat batches, use the same sieve test and cooking endpoint. Request the processing date and agree whether a colour range or a sealed reference sample controls acceptance.
Export planning
Shipping & logistics
Discuss 25 kg or 50 kg lined bags or food-compatible big bags. Confirm bag strength, moisture protection and the inspection point used to measure powder generated during handling. 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.
