Envisioning Sri Lanka as a global destination for sourcing safe and value-added herbs and spices, Ceylon Spice Company (CSC) now extends its services in providing local exporters advanced milling, sterilisation and packing facilities under one roof.
CSC is a subsidiary of the MJF group. Today, it is supporting local spice exporters affordable access to state-of-the-art technologies for milling and sterilisation. The company’s highly experienced and trained team has successfully processed over 1,000 metric tonnes of assorted spices with state-of-the-art facilities designed to minimise process and volatile oil losses, sterilising herbs and spices using superior European technology – SAFESTERIL, providing bulk and value packing options to its customers.
In its endeavour to provide a complete value-adding solution to exporters under one roof, CSC has now commissioned its milling line designed to ensure the highest quality standards. CSC is supported by the ‘accredited’ laboratory facilities at Dilmah, which screens all raw material and finished product’s organoleptic and microbial parameters accompanied by comprehensive reports for each batch.
The sterilisation technology available at CSC consists of patented European technologies from the heating screw to steam chamber and flash cooler. The sterilisation unit provides a homogenous and efficient treatment via excellent product mixing mechanisms, ensuring minimum process and volatile oil losses and minimum organoleptic changes in the products.
The multi-control mechanism to regulate dwell time, product temperature, steam temperature and exhaust outflow allows customisable and targeted sterilisation treatments as per differing requirements.
