Turmeric Finger (Whole Haldi)

Welcome to Siya Agri Exports LLP, your premier source for the world's most powerful spice-Turmeric Finger. Sourced from the rich soils of Erode (Tamil Nadu), Nizamabad (Telangana), and Sangli (Maharashtra), our turmeric is celebrated for its brilliant yellow colour, earthy aroma, and high therapeutic value.

We understand that different industries need different turmeric. A supplement manufacturer needs High Curcumin (5%+), while a grocery packer needs bright, smooth Double Polished fingers for visual appeal. We supply all grades, ensuring every batch is strictly tested for heavy metals (Lead Chromate) to meet global food safety standards.

Why Choose Siya Agri Exports for Turmeric?

Double Polished Quality

The Process: Raw turmeric has a rough, hard skin. We process it in polishing drums to remove the outer layer (skin) and fibres.

The Result: "Double Polished" fingers are smooth, uniform, and have a glowing yellow color that sells instantly on retail shelves.

Lead Chromate Free (Safety First)

The Risk: Some unethical traders artificially colour turmeric with Lead Chromate (a toxic chemical) to make it look brighter.

Our Guarantee: We certify that our turmeric is 100% Natural and free from artificial colours or heavy metals. We prioritize food safety for EU and US markets.

Applications & Uses

Culinary: The base ingredient for almost all Indian, Thai, and Persian curries.

Medicinal: A powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. Used in "Golden Milk" (Turmeric Lattes).

Cosmetic: Used in skin creams and face masks for glowing skin.

Natural Dye: Used to colour mustard sauce, cheese, and butter naturally.

Logistics & Shipping

Protection: Turmeric is sensitive to light (colour fades). We pack in high-density bags to protect the pigment during transit.

Fumigation: Standard Methyl Bromide fumigation is performed to prevent weevil infestation.
