Food Irradiation

Food Irradiation

Food Irradiation for Safer, Longer-Lasting Foods

A scientifically validated process using controlled gamma radiation to improve food safety.

Food irradiation extends shelf life, reduces food losses, and eliminates harmful microorganisms such as bacteria, parasites, and insects without compromising food quality.

  • How Food Irradiation Helps

  • Food Categories Treated

  • Controls foodborne pathogens like Salmonella and E. coli.

  • Delays ripening and senescence in fruits and vegetables.

  • Prevents sprouting in potatoes, onions, and garlic.

  • Disinfests grains and pulses from insects.

  • Reduces dependence on chemical fumigants.

  • Fruits and vegetables.

  • Spices and condiments.

  • Cereals, pulses, and grains.

  • Meat, poultry, and seafood.

  • Dry and packaged food products.

Food irradiation is approved by WHO, FAO, IAEA, FSSAI, and AERB, and is widely used to meet domestic and export food safety standards.

Individually Quick Frozen (IQF) Technology

Individually Quick Frozen (IQF) Technology

"An advanced freezing process designed to preserve the natural quality of food products".

IQF rapidly freezes individual food items to maintain freshness, texture, nutrition, and appearance, while preventing clumping and ensuring products remain free-flowing and easy to handle.
