sulphur standard of dried apricot
SO2 standards refer to the amount of sulfur dioxide used to preserve the dried apricots. Sulfur dioxide is a chemical that can prevent browning, mold growth, and insect infestation of dried fruits. However, too much sulfur dioxide can also have negative effects on the environment and human health. That’s why there are SO2 standards for dry apricots that regulate the maximum amount of sulfur dioxide allowed in the packaging. Our products meet these standards. For example, the legal limit of SO2 content in dried has been accepted as 2000 mg/kg in European Union, 2500 mg/kg in Canada and 3000 mg/kg in the United States.
Moisture level of dried apricot
Moisture level refers to the amount of water left in the dried apricots.the Moisture level affects the texture, flavor, and shelf life of the dry apricots. Too much moisture can make the dried fruits soft and sticky, and increase the risk of mold growth. Too little moisture can make the apricots hard and dry, and reduce the nutritional value. That’s why there are moisture level guidelines for dried fruits that recommend the optimal range of water content for the best quality and safety. We will explain what these guidelines are and how they vary by type and variety of apricots.
Size of dried apricots
One of the factors that affects the price of dried apricots is their size. The size of this product is measured by the number of fruits per kilogram, and the international standard for this is shown in the table below. The smaller the number, the larger the size of them. For example, a size of 1 means that there is only one dried apricot per kilogram, while a size of 180 means that there are 180 number per kilogram. The size of this dried fruit can vary depending on the variety, growing conditions, harvesting time, and drying methods. Generally, larger sizes are more expensive than smaller sizes, but the taste of jumbo and small sizes are the same.

Iran Qaisy
The most common shape of dried apricots that Armani Food can produce is sulphured, called Qaisy. Sulphured dried apricot or Qaisy in Iran are treated with sulphur dioxide during the production process to keep their bright orange color and prevent them from spoiling or getting moldy. Sulphur dioxide is a safe and common preservative that is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the World Health Organization (WHO).
Qaisy vs organic dried apricot
The drying method of apricot leaves is different from Qaisy. Apricot leaves and Qaisy are both from apricot fruits and have the same vitamins and minerals. The only difference is in the drying method. Apricot leaves are usually from Ordubad apricots or the fruits of wild apricot trees. In the method of drying apricot leaves, first the apricot fruits are washed. Then they are divided into two halves and arranged on trays. Then they are exposed to the smoke of the house and sulfur for 8 hours and then they are placed in the sunlight to dry completely. Sunny apricot leaves are not exposed to sulfur in any of the steps. After drying, the leaves are ready to be washed and packed.
