GrainSpan Nutrients is an integrated rice product supplier and rice milling manufacturer operating three processing facilities in Gujarat, Haryana, and West Bengal. We produce rice grit and rice flour for food manufacturers, weaning food producers, gluten-free food brands, pharmaceutical companies, and export buyers across India and 19+ countries.
Our rice milling plants in Ahmedabad (Gujarat), Gohana/Sonipat (Haryana), and Kolkata (West Bengal) produce food-grade rice ingredients backed by FSSAI, ISO 22000, FSSC 22000, Halal, Kosher, and APEDA certification.
GrainSpan’s Rice Product Range
- Rice Grit
Broken, screened rice endosperm particles in specific size ranges. Rice grit is used across breakfast cereal manufacturing, weaning food and infant nutrition products, extruded snack production, brewing adjunct applications, and animal feed formulations. GrainSpan produces rice grit in fine, medium, and coarse grades from all three plant locations.
Key quality parameters for rice grit buyers: particle size distribution (D50 and maximum coarse fraction), moisture (max 13%), whiteness index, and broken percentage uniformity. Consistent particle size is critical for buyers running cereal cooking or snack extrusion processes.
- Rice Flour
Finely milled rice, typically below 150-200 microns. Naturally gluten-free, with a neutral flavour profile and clean white colour. Rice flour from GrainSpan is used in gluten-free baking, batter coatings for fried food, rice noodles and vermicelli, baby food and infant cereal formulations, and pharmaceutical tablet binding.
GrainSpan’s rice milling facilities process only rice – no wheat is handled on any shared line – making our rice flour suitable for confirmed gluten-free applications and coeliac-market supply where cross-contamination must be excluded.
Industries GrainSpan’s Rice Products Serve
- Breakfast Cereal and Weaning Food
Rice grit is a primary base ingredient in breakfast puffed rice, infant cereal, and weaning food formulations. Rice is hypoallergenic and easily digestible, making it the preferred first-food grain globally. GrainSpan’s rice grit is produced to tight particle size specifications and tested for mycotoxins and, on request, inorganic arsenic – the parameter regulated specifically in infant food from rice in EU and US markets. - Gluten-Free Food Manufacturing
Rice flour is the most widely used wheat flour substitute in the growing gluten-free food category. GrainSpan’s rice flour is suitable for gluten-free bread, biscuits, pasta, noodles, and baking mixes. Our dedicated rice-only processing lines eliminate the cross-contamination risk that excludes many suppliers from gluten-free applications. Testing documentation for gluten levels available on request. - Batter Coatings and Fried Food
Rice flour produces a lighter, crispier coating than wheat flour in fried food applications – better oil absorption control and a cleaner finish on the coated product. Used by QSR chains, frozen food manufacturers, and food service distributors in chicken coating systems, tempura batter, fish and seafood coating, and vegetable fry applications. - Rice Noodles and Vermicelli
Rice flour is the primary ingredient in rice noodles, rice paper, and rice vermicelli. Industrial noodle manufacturers require rice flour with consistent starch gelatinisation behaviour, controlled moisture, and specified whiteness. GrainSpan exports rice flour to Southeast Asian noodle manufacturing markets. - Pharmaceutical and Nutraceutical
Fine rice flour and rice starch are used as tablet binders, disintegrants, and excipients in solid dosage pharmaceutical manufacturing. Rice starch’s hypoallergenic profile and neutral flavour make it suitable for sensitive pharmaceutical formulations. Rice flour is also used in meal replacement sachets, protein powders, and sports nutrition products. - Animal Feed
Broken rice from GrainSpan’s milling operations is used in poultry feed, aquafeed, and pig feed formulations as a clean, starch-rich energy source. It is particularly valued in aquafeed – broken rice is exported to Southeast Asian aquafeed manufacturers as a low-cost starch ingredient.

FAQ schema block:
- What rice products does GrainSpan supply?
GrainSpan supplies rice grit (fine, medium, and coarse grades) and rice flour from our milling plants in Gujarat, Haryana, and West Bengal. We also supply broken rice for feed and industrial applications. All food-grade products are produced under FSSAI and ISO 22000 certification. - What is rice grit used for?
Rice grit is used in breakfast cereal manufacturing, weaning food and infant nutrition products, extruded snack production, brewing as an adjunct, aquafeed as a binder and energy source, and animal feed formulations. The required grade (fine, medium, coarse) depends on the downstream process and application. - Is GrainSpan’s rice flour gluten-free?
Yes. GrainSpan’s rice milling plants process only rice – no wheat is handled on any shared line. Our rice flour is gluten-free and suitable for applications requiring confirmed no cross-contamination with wheat. Gluten testing documentation is available on request for coeliac-market and gluten-free labelling applications. - Does GrainSpan export rice products?

GrainSpan holds FSSAI, ISO 9001, ISO 22000, FSSC 22000, TQMI, Halal, Kosher, and APEDA registration across our facilities. These are maintained through annual surveillance audits. Certificate copies are available on request for supplier qualification processes. - What is the difference between rice grit and rice flour?
Rice grit is coarsely broken and screened rice endosperm – typically above 300 microns in particle size. It is used where texture, expansion, or cooking behaviour of distinct particles matters. Rice flour is milled finer, below 150-200 microns, and is used where smooth texture, coating adhesion, or fine dispersion is required. Both products come from the same rice milling process – particle size is the differentiator.
