Cashew PKW1 Kernels for Roasting & Retail Packing

Cashew PKW1 Kernels are whole white kernels graded for retail presentation and controlled roasting operations. They target snack processors, retail packers and private-label roasters who require low broken percentage, predictable oil migration during roasting and consistent sizing for tray-fill operations.

Supply is organized into palletized cartons with nitrogen-flush or MAP options to control oxidative rancidity for longer shelf life. Lot COA includes moisture, FFA and visible defect counts. Private-label packing and custom roasting profiles can be supplied on request.

Technical Specifications & Quality Parameters

  • Grade: PKW1 (white wholes, whole-kernel grade)
  • Moisture: Indicative 3–5% (Export Standard)
  • Broken Count: Low broken and splits (batch-verified on COA)
  • Kernel Count: Indicative 135–150 per kg (typical for PKW1)
  • Oxidity/FFA: Monitored on batch COA to assess storage stability

Packaging, MOQ & Commercial Terms

  • MOQ & Load Sizing: 20ft/40ft FCL palletized cartons; sample boxes for quality approval
  • Lead Time & Fulfillment: Dispatch scheduled after batch QC and FFA verification
  • Supply Authority: HACCP-aligned handling and batch COA for moisture and defect analysis
  • Packaging Formats: 10–20kg retail cartons, 25kg vacuum-sealed cartons or MAP-packed trays

Processing Suitability & Buyer Workflows

Typical buyers are snack-brand roasters and retail packers who require consistent kernel counts and predictable oil-release during roasting. PKW1 grade supports tray-filling and even heat transfer; kernel uniformity reduces variance in roast color and oil exudation. For private-label roasters, pre-shipment sample roasting and FFA analysis are recommended to set roasting curves.

Export Readiness & QA Infrastructure

  • Infrastructure & QA: Sorting lines, optical sorters for color/defect removal, and batch lab testing for moisture and FFA
  • Country of Origin: India
  • Port of Loading: Major local ports (e.g., Mundra / Nhava Sheva)
  • Documents Provided: Batch-wise COA, Commercial Invoice, Packing List, and fumigation/handling reports where applicable

Technical Insight: Roasting Behaviour & Oil Stability

Whole kernels in PKW1 have lower surface area to volume ratio, which moderates oil exudation during roasting compared with halves. Monitor initial moisture and FFA to set roast temperature and time; high residual moisture increases risk of uneven color. For long storage, MAP or nitrogen-flush reduces headspace oxygen and slows lipid oxidation.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is the typical moisture and kernel count for PKW1? Moisture is indicative in the 3–5% range and kernel count is typically 135–150 per kg; precise figures are batch-dependent and provided on the COA.
  • How is oil stability monitored for long storage? FFA measurements are run per batch; MAP or nitrogen-flush packing is recommended to slow oxidation during refrigerated or ambient storage.
  • Are custom roasting profiles available for private label work? Yes. Pre-shipment sample roasting and recommended time-temperature curves are provided to optimize color and crunch.
  • What packaging options support retail vs bulk delivery? Retail cartons (10–20kg) and vacuum/MAP-packed cartons for longer shelf life; palletized loads for container shipment.
