Modern storage facility
At GrainSpan’s manufacturing facility, we’ve installed a Modern Silo Storage System with a capacity of 15000 MT which effectively conserves whole kernels reserved for milling. Our warehouses possess the capacity to produce 300 MT corn grains & 100 MT rice grains in our Ahmedabad plant, 150 MT corn grains & 150 MT rice grains in Kolkata plant, and 150 MT corn grains & 100 MT rice grains in the Gohana plant respectively. Our facility is certified by ISO 22000, HACCP which ensures hygienic manufacturing process for high-quality grains.
Maintaining quality meticulously
Quality always remains a priority for us in everything we do. Our approach with quality at the core leads us to conduct the best sorting procedure in the industry which is at par with international standards. We have also installed Optical Colour Sorting Technology to help us identify and remove aflatoxins and discoloured grains effectively.
The grain journey
1. Grain Storage
Corn wet-milling is a process of breaking corn kernels into their component parts: corn oil, protein, corn starch, and fibre.
2. Corn Cleaning
Foreign materials and damaged kernels are removed to ensure that only whole kernels are used for milling.
3. Milling
This process softens the germs and loosens the bran coat. The cleaned kernels are then moistened.
4. Degermination
This machine peels the bran coat and germ from the endosperm with an abrading action. This splits the tailstock (large endosperm pieces) from the thru stock (hull, germ, and smaller endosperm pieces).
5. Packaging
Finally, the end products are packaged in quality controlled environment, making sure all safety processes are followed and global standards maintained.
Tech first! Because nothing can replace good quality.
We invest both time and effort in carefully choosing the best in milling equipment. We also understand, technology isn’t a one-time effort and strive to stay upgraded, updated and ahead of the market. Our current equipment is sourced from Spain, Italy and Switzerland and includes:
- Pre-cleaning machine
- Modern storage Silo with a capacity of 15,000 MT
- Colour sorter
- Weighers
- Level sensors
- PLC based automation system
Research & Development
Our in-house research facility keeps us focussed on the future. Every effort taken here ensures that we do more with every grain, in the food, fed and oil industry and explore new grains and avenues. While our focus is trained on the future, our present too is well taken care of with a quality assurance system that meets the highest International Standards such as ISO 22000, HACCP.
