FRK and FR manufacturers encounter specific challenges when it comes to the sourcing and maintenance of equipment crucial for fortified rice kernel (FRK) and fortified rice (FR) production. At the FICSI Rice Fortification Resource Centre (FRFRC), we understand the importance of overcoming these challenges to enhance the quality of fortified rice products.
Here are the primary concerns addressed in the equipment sourcing and maintenance section:
At the FICSI Rice Fortification Resource Centre, we are committed to assisting FRK and FR manufacturers in overcoming these equipment-related challenges. We provide comprehensive resources, technical expertise, and guidance to ensure that equipment sourcing and maintenance do not hinder the production of high-quality fortified rice products. Together, we can combat malnutrition and enhance community health through fortified rice.
At the forefront of the effort to fortify rice products with essential nutrients, the Food Corporation of India (FCI) plays a pivotal role in setting industry standards and ensuring the quality of fortified rice kernel (FRK) and Fortified Rice (FR). In line with its commitment to quality and excellence, FCI strongly recommends the use of equipment certified by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) for the production of FRK and FR.
BIS certification signifies compliance with rigorous quality and safety standards established by the Government of India.
FCI encourages all stakeholders to employ BIS certified equipment for FRK and FR production.
