Committed to the Highest Food Safety Standards: From Field to Container
At Green Apple, quality and food safety are non-negotiable; they form the bedrock of our global partnerships. We enforce a rigorous quality governance strategy that begins with inspecting fresh crops in the fields, directly supervising dehydration and processing inside our world-class, certified partner facilities, and delivering a final product that strictly complies with European and international food regulations.
Our Quality Pillars
Advanced Optical & Laser Sorting
Dehydrated products pass through state-of-the-art optical sorters and digital cleaning technologies to eliminate color defects, burnt particles, and ensure absolute physical uniformity.
Moisture & Water Activity Control
We enforce precise drying protocols keeping moisture levels strictly below $6\%$ to $7\%$ (depending on the product). This completely inhibits microbial growth while preserving natural pungency, essential oils, and flavor profiles for an extended shelf life.
Full Traceability System
We operate a transparent traceability system that tracks each batch backward—from the exact agricultural source and dehydration facility to the final shipping container—providing ultimate accountability to our buyers.
Metal Detection & Foreign Matter Control
To safeguard product purity, all packaging lines are integrated with highly sensitive, calibrated Metal Detectors. This guarantees that all exported batches are 100% free from magnetic, non-magnetic, and stainless-steel physical contaminants.
Laboratory Testing & Micro-Purity
No shipment leaves Green Apple without undergoing comprehensive testing. We partner with internationally accredited, ISO 17025 certified independent laboratories to draw random samples from every batch, issuing a detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) covering:
1. Microbiological Testing: Ensuring products are strictly free from Salmonella, E. coli, yeasts, and molds, with Total Plate Counts (TPC) strictly within international thresholds.
2. Pesticide Residues & Heavy Metals Analysis: Guaranteeing total compliance with the stringent European Union Maximum Residue Limits (EU MRLs).
Certifications
To ensure standardized, compliant, and hazard-free manufacturing, our products are processed and dehydrated exclusively within partner facilities holding world-class industry certifications:
• ISO 22000: Food Safety Management System standard.
• HACCP Certified: Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point to prevent biological, chemical, and physical hazards.
• GLOBALG.A.P Compliant: Ensuring sustainable and safe agricultural practices from the very roots.
