SPECIFICATION OF SUNFLOWER KERNELS

Source and Origin of Sunflower Kernels

The sunflower plant (Helianthus annuus) was originally domesticated in the Americas and introduced to Europe in the 16th century. Initially cultivated for vegetable oil production, sunflowers have since gained widespread popularity for both human consumption and animal feed. Today, sunflower is cultivated on nearly every continent.

The edible part of the seed, known as the sunflower kernel or sunflower heart, is derived by removing the inedible black-and-white striped hull. Botanically, sunflower seeds are classified as cypselas – dry, one-seeded fruits.

Our sunflower kernels are cleaned, hulled, and sorted with care, ensuring uniform quality and food safety. They are ready for direct use in food production processes.

Uses of Sunflower Kernels

Sunflower kernels are widely used in:

  • Bakery products – breads, rolls, crackers, granola bars

  • Salads and ready meals – as a crunchy topping or nutritious inclusion

  • Breakfast cereals – muesli and granola mixes

  • Snack blends – roasted or raw in trail mixes

  • Plant-based meat alternatives – for structure, protein, and texture

They add flavor, crunch, and visual appeal while enriching recipes with valuable nutrients. The growing trend of incorporating sunflower seeds into vegan and vegetarian products continues to drive demand across global markets.

Nutritional Values of Sunflower Kernels

Sunflower kernels are a nutrient-dense food, offering:

  • Healthy fats (mainly polyunsaturated and monounsaturated)

  • Plant-based protein – supports muscle development

  • Vitamin E – a powerful antioxidant for skin and cellular health

  • Magnesium, selenium, and copper – essential minerals for immune and nervous system support

  • Dietary fiber – contributes to satiety and gut health

These benefits make sunflower kernels an excellent ingredient for health-conscious, clean-label, and functional food formulations.

We provide:

  • High-quality hulled sunflower kernels (conventional or organic on request)

  • Packaging in 25 kg paper bags or 750–1000 kg big bags

  • Origin: EU and non-EU countries (availability based on season and request)
