UNDERSTANDING FLAX SEEDS

Know the product.
Choose for your application.

Product & processing

Flax, also known as linseed, is traded as brown and golden seeds. Whole seed, ground meal, partially defatted material and oil have different composition and functionality. Define the food-grade form before comparing offers.

Food industry applications

Whole seeds suit breads, cereals and granola. Ground flax can contribute binding in recipes; flour blends and oil require their own processing and storage specifications.

PackingBag, vacuum and nitrogen options should be matched to the particular product.

Can whole-flax values be used for defatted meal?

No. Removing oil changes composition. Request a separate nutritional and technical specification for defatted meal, ground seed and oil.
