Export cottonseed oil: refined-oil compliance + container logistics
Export cottonseed line spec: refined oil meeting FAO/WHO Codex (free gossypol <0.045%, FFA <0.1%, peroxide <2 meq O₂/kg) and target-market regulations: EU 1881/2006 (heavy metals Pb/Cd/As, contaminants), US FDA + FSMA, China GB 1535 (cottonseed oil), India FSSAI, Africa local regs. Container options: bulk crude/refined in 20-ft flexitank 18-22 t (lowest unit freight), or finished retail bottles palletized in 20-ft container ~15,000-20,000 × 1 L bottles. Documentation: COA per batch (gossypol HPLC, FFA, peroxide, heavy metals), COO, phytosanitary, BL, fumigation cert, packing list.
Export-ready additions
What an export cottonseed line adds
- Target product: bulk crude (to refinery), bulk refined (flexitank), packaged retail (1-5 L PET / 250-1000 ml glass), or all three.
- Compliance: free gossypol <0.045% (FAO/WHO), FFA <0.1%, peroxide <2, heavy metals (Pb <0.1 mg/kg, Cd, As, Hg), pesticide residues.
- Container logistics: 20-ft flexitank 18-22 t bulk; 20-ft palletized ~15,000-20,000 × 1 L PET (24/carton, 4 pallet layers); 40-ft = 2× capacity.
- Documentation: COA per batch + COO + phytosanitary + fumigation + BL + packing list + organic/Halal/Kosher cert if relevant.
- Voltage: 380V/50Hz (China/EU/Africa) or 480V/60Hz (US) — specify at quote stage. Local language manuals + spare-parts kit for 1-2 years operation.
