Moringa leaf powder is easily contaminated with mold because it is strongly hygroscopic. In addition, the finely ground powder makes it easier for bacteria to penetrate the particles.
Personal hygiene
All personnel involved in the packaging of Moringa leaf products must ensure personal cleanliness and hygiene while on duty. Personal protective equipment (PPE) such as headgear, nasal mask, disposable gloves must be used at all times.
Bulk packaging
The temperature and humidity must be controlled in the packaging room to prevent the product from getting wet again.
Once dry, the moringa powder is cooled and packed into clean disposable polyethylene bags and sealed. This is enclosed in a second polyethylene bag and heat sealed. This is to keep it fresh and dry before further use. Bags should be stored in a cool, dry place.
