Sunflower Kernels (Bakery & Confectionery)

Our flagship sunflower kernels are celebrated among European master bakers and multinational snack conglomerates. Sourced from high-yielding oil and confection hybrid varieties, seeds undergo multi-stage hulling, aspiration, gravity separation, and Buhler Sortex optical sorting. The result is pure, undamaged kernels with exceptional shelf life and crisp texture.
