How Is Nutritious Rice Made?

With increasing emphasis on healthy eating and balanced nutrition, staple foods rich in multiple nutrients are gaining increasing market attention. While ordinary rice often loses significant amounts of vitamins and minerals during the refining process, nutritional rice, through scientific processing, replenishes nutrients like protein, vitamins, and minerals into the rice grains, making it an ideal choice for meeting modern dietary needs.

What is nutritious rice?

Nutritional rice, also known as fortified rice, is made by extruding regular rice to supplement it with vitamins, minerals, and protein. The rice grains are then reshaped under high temperature and pressure. While it resembles natural rice in appearance, it also offers a superior taste and higher nutritional value, making it suitable for children, pregnant women, and the elderly.

Our extrusion equipment efficiently and stably processes nutritional rice, ensuring uniform, supple grains. It can be used in the production of bionic rice, children's nutritional rice, pet food, and functional snack foods, helping customers expand their product lines and markets.

Production process of nutritious rice

The production process for nutritious rice primarily includes raw material grinding and mixing, extrusion granulation, drying and cooling, screening, and packaging. Extrusion granulation is the core of the entire process. Leveraging advanced extrusion technology, this step not only determines the final product quality and taste, but also directly impacts the product's uniform appearance and quality stability.

Our extrusion equipment features high efficiency, automation, and multi-functionality, ensuring consistent and continuous production while ensuring a uniform appearance and excellent taste. The equipment's flexible process allows for adjustment of extrusion parameters based on specific recipes and raw materials, meeting the processing requirements of diverse product types.
