About Dehydrated Onion
Bulbs are peeled, washed and cut, then dried under controlled conditions before being separated into cut sizes. The same dried material runs from kibbled and flake grades through minced and chopped cuts to powder, so a buyer can move between particle sizes without changing raw material. White, red and pink onion are handled separately through the line to keep colour consistent.
Onion is supplied in bulk for industrial use, in lined multi-wall sacks, export cartons or laminated pouches, with retail and private-label packing available. Colour, cut and packing format are agreed at the enquiry stage; where a blend of cuts suits your dosing better than a single grade, that can be packed to order. Specifications and a Certificate of Analysis are confirmed per order.

Frequently asked
What is the difference between kibbled, flakes, minced, chopped and powder?
They are the same dried onion separated at different particle sizes, from the coarse kibbled and flake grades down through minced and chopped to powder. Which one suits you depends on whether the onion should stay visible in the finished product or disappear into it. Exact sizing is agreed per order.
Do you supply white, red and pink onion?
Yes. All three are handled, and they are run separately to limit colour carry-over between them. Colour is confirmed against the specification agreed for the order. Tell us which colour your market expects and we will confirm availability at the enquiry stage.
What specifications do you work to, and can we get a Certificate of Analysis?
Specifications and a Certificate of Analysis are confirmed per order. Send the spec sheet your process runs to and we will confirm against it before the order is placed, rather than publishing a figure that may not match your grade.
Does dehydrated onion need cold storage at our end?
No. It is supplied dry and handled as an ambient, dry-store ingredient; keep it closed and away from moisture and heat. Storage and handling guidance for your climate and packing format is confirmed with the order.
