What are organic hemp seeds?
Organic Hemp Seeds are harvested from non-GMO Cannabis sativa L. plants, grown under strict organic farming practices. Through patented mechanical dehulling and AI-powered optical sorting, we deliver raw, shelled seeds with 99.9% purity—free from hull fragments, microbial contaminants, and heavy metals. A versatile superfood for plant-based nutrition and clean-label formulations.
Key Features
- Mechanical Dehulling: Removes outer shells without heat or chemicals, preserving raw nutrition.
- Triple Optical Sorting: AI-driven color/size/shape detection eliminates defective seeds and foreign matter.
- Cold-Stable Processing: Temperature-controlled facilities (<18°C) prevent lipid oxidation.
- High Digestibility: 98% hull-free seeds with activated enzymes for optimal nutrient absorption.
- Allergen-Safe: Produced in a dedicated gluten/nut/soy-free facility.
