MORINGA

Timing is critical. Our Moringa leaves are hand-picked in early morning hours when nutritional content is at peak levels. Only young, tender leaves from the top 30cm of branches are selected—these contain the highest concentration of vitamins, minerals, and bioactive compounds. Harvesting is done every 45 days during the growing season, allowing trees to regenerate without stress and ensuring consistent quality year-round. Within 2 hours of harvest, leaves are transported in ventilated containers to our processing facility to prevent oxidation and nutrient degradation, maintaining full potency through initial handling.

Moringa's vibrant green leaf powder contains a complex profile of chlorophyll, polyphenols, and bioactive compounds that are highly susceptible to oxidative degradation. Unlike dried leaf products that maintain color through desiccation, Moringa's nutrient-dense structure demands rigorous atmospheric control throughout storage and distribution. Every batch is sealed in multi-layer foil pouches with food-grade PE liners, filled with nitrogen gas to create an inert atmosphere that prevents oxidation and microbial proliferation. Our packaging specifications maintain <2% oxygen levels within the sealed environment—far below the critical 5% threshold where degradation accelerates. Temperature sensitivity is equally critical: storage between 15-25°C preserves polyphenol integrity and prevents enzymatic browning that customers associate with quality loss. For bulk ingredients destined for nutraceutical manufacturing, we supply Moringa in HDPE drums with desiccant canisters (silica gel with color-change indicators) to manage the hygroscopic nature of leaf powder. This dual-layer approach—atmospheric control in consumer packages and active desiccation in bulk formats—ensures that Moringa powder reaching your facility maintains full potency and fresh characteristics that define our sourcing promise.
