Packaging & storage recommendations

Store in a cool, dry place in airtight containers to preserve aroma, color and nutritional quality. For industrial buyers, recommend FIFO inventory rotation and moisture-controlled storage to maintain shelf stability.

This ingredient is well suited for companies developing gluten-free, organic, high-protein and antioxidant-rich product lines that require a visually distinctive grain with clean-label credentials.
