Latest innovations supporting gluten-free oat production
Our gluten-free oat supply chain extends from Finnish fields to the reliable delivery of oat ingredients and oat-based products. We continuously develop our production and adopt new technologies to strengthen gluten management throughout the process. Our supply chain has been further advanced with proprietary cleaning, separation and analysis processes. Each finished batch is analysed and released only after it meets our gluten-free and quality requirements.
Locally grown oats as the cornerstone
At the heart of our processes are locally grown Finnish oats. All our high-quality oats come from trusted farmers within a 100-kilometer range of our mill. There are no middlemen – we know exactly where our oats have been sourced from and what type of growing conditions they had.
High quality oats through contract farming
Contract farming ensures a reliable supply of oats, even in challenging market conditions. Our secure supply is supported by multiple contract farmers. Close partnerships with these farmers guarantee the quality of the oats, ensuring their suitability for processing and the production of various oat-based products. We promote sustainable farming methods through close collaboration, training and financial compensation.
Oat purity is a promise
To ensure gluten-free purity, all incoming oat loads are classified and separated, with strict intake criteria. Our oat grains undergo multiple purification phases to remove any foreign grains, ensuring the highest quality standards. Analyses are made throughout the process, including checkpoints and quarantines. Each batch of end products is analyzed and released only after the results indicate purity.
