FSSAI Standards
Complies with all FSSAI food safety and quality standards.
ISO Certified Testing
Processed and tested as per internationally recognised ISO standards.
Every test, explained.
Twenty-one tests across four categories, run on every single batch before it is packed. Open a category to see what each test checks and why it matters.
Contaminant screening — the tests that decide whether a batch is safe to eat at all.
Heavy Metals (Lead, Cadmium, Arsenic, Mercury)
Tests for toxic heavy metal contamination to ensure soils and water sources are 100% clean and safe for long-term health.
Pesticide Residues (180+ Compounds)
Comprehensive multi-residue screen across organophosphates, carbamates, and synthetic agrochemicals to confirm clean farming practices.
Aflatoxins & Mycotoxins (B1, B2, G1, G2)
Screens for harmful fungal toxins produced during improper harvest storage or mould contamination, ensuring grain drying integrity.
Ethylene Oxide (EtO) Screening
Guarantees complete freedom from carcinogenic chemical sterilization gases banned across global quality food standards.
Composition and grade checks that confirm the spice is what it claims to be.
Moisture Content
Prevents microbial growth, clumping, and rancidity while locking in natural volatile aroma oils.
Total Ash Content
Measures mineral residue to rule out inorganic chalk, limestone, or earth added to artificially inflate bulk weight.
Acid Insoluble Ash (AIA)
Ensures zero sub-surface dust, sand, quartz, or silica particles exist in the milled spice powder.
Extraneous Foreign Matter
Guarantees 100% clean whole seeds without grit, weeds, stalks, or organic debris before cool-milling.
Non-Volatile Ether Extract (NVEE)
Measures natural fixed oils and resins responsible for deep flavour delivery in authentic home cooking.
Crude Fibre Content
Confirms natural seed structure integrity and rules out dilution with spent husks or excess cellulose.
Adulteration screening for dyes, fillers and substituted material.
Volatile Essential Oil (VEO)
Verifies high natural aroma oils remain unextracted and never spent before packaging.
Curcuminoid Content (Turmeric)
Ensures high biological curcumin potency for genuine anti-inflammatory and culinary power.
Capsaicin & Scoville (Chilli)
Validates authentic natural warmth from prime stemless chillies with zero artificial capsaicin boosters.
Synthetic Colour & Sudan Dyes (I-IV)
Protects against carcinogenic industrial red/orange dyes used illegally to brighten inferior spices.
Metanil Yellow & Lead Chromate
Strict zero-tolerance testing to verify zero toxic yellow chemical salts or lead adulteration in turmeric.
Starch & Foreign Flour Adulteration
Confirms zero wheat flour, spent grain starch, sawdust, or cheap powders used to dilute spice weight.
Physical, microbiological and treatment checks carried out on every batch.
Bulk Density
Measures powder consistency, packaging volume, and optimal packing texture without settling.
Particle Size Distribution
Ensures uniform slow-grinding fineness so spices disperse evenly in tadkas and gravies.
Total Plate Count (TPC)
Overall microbial baseline assessment measuring hygienic processing facility cleanliness.
Yeast & Mould Count
Tests for fungal spores to guarantee fresh aroma retention and long-term kitchen shelf stability.
Irradiation Test
Confirms clean natural cultivation without reliance on ionizing radiation or artificial treatments.
