Quality Control
- Precise moisture monitoring for every batch of oat, peanut and binding syrup raw materials.
- Controlled forming and cooling process to prevent fat bloom and oil separation.
- Water activity (Aw) sampling test after production to confirm stability threshold.
- Simulated tropical ageing test to validate shelf-life performance during sea freight.
- Complete batch traceability covering raw material, production, QA inspection and outbound records.
FAQ
Q1: Does this protein block need heating before consumption?
A: It is ready to eat directly. Heating is not recommended, as high temperature will cause chocolate melting.
Q2: Can we order custom protein or sugar levels?
A: Yes. Nutritional tuning is available for large, long-term mining project contracts.
Q3: Is this suitable for Australia and Canada FIFO sites?
A: Yes. It is widely used as emergency pocket ration while frozen bakery remains the main canteen meal.
Q4: What if the surface turns white during storage?
A: White bloom is fat separation from high heat exposure. It is not unsafe, though flavour and texture degrade; avoid high-temperature storage.
Q5: Can this item be mixed with other RTE products in one carton?
A: Mixed cartons are acceptable for trial orders; bulk standard shipments are packed separately.
Q6: Can we get HALAL batches?
A: HALAL production is available, please state this requirement when submitting your inquiry.
