Processing the Seeds :
After harvesting, the sesame seeds are cleaned and hulled. The first stage of the hulling process is cleaning. The sesame seeds pass through an air separation stage to remove any foreign particles. Next, a combination of water and friction work together as the seeds are passed against the chamber of the hulling machine to separate the hull from the seeds. Once the seeds have been hulled, they are passed through an electronic color sorting machine that rejects any discolored seeds to insure perfectly colored sesame seeds. We maintains the highest hygiene standards and is committed to keeping the environment clean through advanced technology.
