Fortified Rice Kernels (FRK) and Fortified Pulses
True extruded FRK with iron, folic acid, B12, zinc embedded in the kernel structure - survives washing and cooking. Plus fortified pulses for blended meal programs.
Formats Available



Solution
True extruded FRK. High-protein pasta. Patented IP. FSSAI-compliant for PDS, premium retail, and mandated export.
The Problem
You need fortification that survives cooking - washing, boiling, draining. Surface-coated rice loses most of its added micronutrients to the rinse water. You also need supply that meets FSSAI fortification standards, pricing that works for institutional volumes, and a manufacturer with proven government-program track record.
Nutrition built into the staple, not coated on top - for PDS and mid-day-meal supply, ICDS programs, retail brands building premium nutrition SKUs, and exporters to fortification-mandated markets. Extrusion-based true fortified rice kernels (FRK) with micronutrients embedded in the kernel structure, not surface-coated grains that wash off in the rinse water.
