How We Freeze Kale for Commercial Supply

We prepare commercial frozen kale through controlled raw-material selection, washing, trimming, blanching or pre-treatment, cooling, draining, IQF freezing, sorting and packing. Each order follows confirmed requirements for green color, leaf texture, stem ratio, cut-size consistency and frozen handling.

Raw Material Inspection

We select fresh kale according to leaf maturity, green color, freshness and processing suitability. We remove yellow leaves, over-mature leaves and visible defects before production.

Washing and Leaf Selection

We wash and select leaves to reduce soil, sediment and foreign material risk. Washing control is important for frozen leafy greens used in smoothies, soups and ready meals.

Trimming and Cutting

We trim and cut kale into chopped pieces, leaf pieces or customized sizes. Cut size consistency supports stable dosing, mixing and cooking performance in commercial production.

Blanching or Pre-treatment

We blanch or pre-treat kale according to product specification. Commercial blanching supports green color control, leaf texture control and downstream application stability.

Cooling and Draining

We cool and drain the product after blanching or pre-treatment to manage moisture before freezing. This step helps reduce water release, clumping and uneven frozen texture.

IQF Freezing

We apply IQF freezing or quick freezing according to product form and order requirements. This supports free-flowing performance, portion control and stable frozen handling.

Sorting, Metal Detection and Packing

We sort the frozen product, inspect color and visible defects, check weight, pass metal detection and inspect packing. We can prepare bulk cartons, foodservice packs, retail bags and private label packing.

Frozen Storage and Export Loading

We store finished products at or below -18°C and prepare cold chain loading according to shipment plan. We support batch traceability, export documentation and specification files for your order.
