NOW Organic develops projects for fresh turmeric in countries such as Peru and Indonesia. During the season, we import full containers of turmeric for the fresh market or process the raw material into products as listed below.
NOW selects the finest pieces of turmeric for the fresh market. At our own packing station, the roots are washed by a fully automated washing line. This ensures that no soil residues remain left on the roots. Each piece of turmeric is assessed for size, appearance, and damage to ensure only the highest quality is available for the retail market. Fresh organic turmeric is available in packages of 150 gram up to and including 13.6 kilogram.
Turmeric juice, much like ginger juice, is becoming increasingly popular. It serves as an ingredient for blends, as the primary component for shots, or bottled for home use and the foodservice market. Besides our turmeric juice being found in fermented and probiotic drinks such as kombucha & kefir, it is also a prominent ingrediënt in herbal and botanical beverages, and turmeric beer. Organic turmeric juice is available in various forms:
Fresh turmeric is processed into puree for the food processing industry. In an ultramodern factory in the Netherlands, we process fresh organic turmeric into puree according to customer specifications. For example, IQF turmeric pellets produced in 8-20 gram cubes.
IQF frozen turmeric cubes are primarily utilized in the food processing industry and the out-of-home market. Sizes and packaging are customized based on customer requests. Our producer can standardly produce from 4mm to 10mm.
The cold pressed turmeric juice is crafted to retain maximum freshness and flavor, delivering a vibrant and natural taste. This juice captures the full essence of fresh organic turmeric without compromising its nutritional benefits. Unlike other methods, our cold pressing technique ensures that the juice remains unpasteurized, preserving its potent natural enzymes and bioactive compounds. The cold pressed juice is available in 20 kilogram pails.
