Process

Dried paddy contains dust and impurities. They are cleaned thoroughly by the vibro cleaning machine. The clean paddy then passes through rubber sheller which is gentle on every grain removing only the husk and not the nutritious germ part of the grain thus retaining the nutritious value of the grain.

Whitening is the process of degrading the undigestable part of the grain. ie) the bran layer of the grain thus enhancing the color as well as the digestive nature of it. This is done at three stages with each stage being gentle on grain still retaining the grain part. Thus the grain become easy to digest as well as nutritious along with bright finish after whitening.

To enhance the glossy appearance on every grain of rice, they are polished with a spray of purified water. After polishing, rice glitters when seen at eye level infront of light. This is the process that determines the shelf life of the rice. This process is very carefully monitored at DHM Rice Mill thus retaining the average shelf life of rice when compared to polished rice of other mills.

Grading is the process of removing the broken from head rice thus maintaining uniformity in size of every single grain. Single grading is not always successful in achieving the result. So, we have dual grading for completely restricting the mix of broken rice into the final product.

Optical Sorting is the final quality control and enhancement step in the rice mill. Discoloured grains are removed to yield a first grade product. This is achieved by Buhler’s SORTEX+, which is imported and sets the standard for the typical export quality rice.

We have achieved uniformity in weights for bags belonging to its respective sizes with the installation of bag filling machine which is PLC controlled ensuring accuracy in set weights. We have the capacity to pack any sizes between 1 to 100 KG packs. The stitching is firm and uniform with the nylon threads. We also deal with private label packings as per the customer requirements ensuring only the approved sample is packed. Finally the packed rice is stored in a cool dry godown free from dust and foreign particles.
