GRADING, STANDARDIZATION & PACKING

GRADING, STANDARDIZATION & PACKING

Bureau Veritas Vietnam performs independent and accurate testing and inspection services to determine the sample’s quality compliance against the contractual requirements.

The quality aspects of goods (such as organoleptic items, presence of insects, temperature, etc.) are continually checked on the loading conveyor belt during the shipment. If any abnormality is detected, the elevator authorities will be requested to stop the shipment and change the necessary goods. We also carry out a grade determination for each parcel of the agreed quantity (e.g., 500 tons, 2500 tons, etc.) to establish preliminarily the quality of the merchandise that is being loaded. The official quality certification will be determined through our laboratory analysis. 

During the shipment process, quality physical conditions are determined such as hectolitre weight, strange particles, damaged kernels, shrunken and broken kernels, white belly kernels, chopped kernels, and humidity. If any condition is outside the maximum/minimum specified limits, the authorities of the elevator will be requested to stop the shipment and change the goods. 

We will test a representative sample of the total shipped goods in our ISO 17025 accredited laboratories to determine its quality compliance against the contractual requirements. On top of that, at the buyer’s request, we can carry out an analysis of each representative sample of the total loaded in each hold to determine items such as:

  • Falling Number
  • Protein Fat
  • Fiber
  • Gluten Index
  • Oven test
  • Grain defects
  • Sensory
  • Cup test
