Four Forms — Flakes, Minced, Granules, Powder
All four come from the same fresh garlic, dried and then cut or milled to the required particle size. The right choice depends entirely on your end application — the wrong particle size causes texture problems or poor dispersion.
Typical Specifications
Dehydrated garlic is supplied preservative-free as standard. SO₂ treatment for colour retention is available only if you specifically request it.
On specifications: the figures above reflect standard industry specifications for this product. Your actual batch values are confirmed on a NABL-accredited Certificate of Analysis issued against your specific lot — provided with every shipment, and with sample orders before you commit to bulk. We do not ask buyers to take a specification on trust.
Why Buyers Switch from Fresh
Roughly 3kg of fresh garlic yields 1kg dehydrated. That concentration is what makes it economical to ship, but the operational gains usually matter more to buyers than the freight saving.

Buyer Questions
What is the difference between garlic flakes, granules and powder?
Particle size only, all deliver the same flavour. Flakes are 5 to 15mm and used where visible garlic is wanted. Minced is 3 to 5mm for ready meals and sauces. Granules are 0.5 to 1mm and preferred for even distribution in dry blends. Powder is 80 to 100 mesh for food manufacturing and applications needing full dispersion.
What moisture content should dehydrated garlic have?
Standard industry specification is a maximum of 6 percent. Low moisture is what gives the product a shelf life of up to 24 months, prevents microbial growth and keeps powder and granules free-flowing. Your actual batch figure is confirmed on the NABL Certificate of Analysis.
Is dehydrated garlic treated with sulphur dioxide?
Not as standard. We supply preservative-free dehydrated garlic. Sulphur dioxide treatment for colour retention is available only where a buyer specifically requests it, and it is then stated on the specification and Certificate of Analysis.
What HS code applies to dehydrated garlic?
Dehydrated garlic in all forms, including flakes, minced, granules and powder, is exported from India under HS Code 0712.90, covering dried vegetables whole, cut, sliced, broken or in powder, not further prepared.
What testing is required for the EU and US?
Both enforce strict pesticide Maximum Residue Limits and require Salmonella absent in 25g. The EU applies EC 396/2005 and rejections most often come from pesticide residue. The US requires FDA facility registration and Foreign Supplier Verification Program compliance, with Salmonella detection triggering automatic detention.
Can I get a sample with a COA before bulk?
Yes. Sample orders carry the same NABL-accredited Certificate of Analysis standard as bulk shipments, so you can verify moisture, microbiology and pesticide results against your own requirements before committing.
