1. Introduction: The Metrics That Matter to Importers
Every international buyer of branch cut cassia knows that performance is about more than bark and color. While visual appeal plays a role in consumer perception, real performance comes down to what’s inside—volatile oil content, moisture levels, cleanliness, and cut uniformity. These factors directly affect flavor release in end products, shelf life, and even how smoothly your shipment clears customs.
Improperly dried or poorly handled cassia can lead to mold growth during transit, container rejection at port, or flavor inconsistencies that ruin entire production batches. That’s why experienced buyers don’t gamble with vague specs or low-cost offers—they insist on lab-tested, batch-traceable quality that aligns with their market demands.
At Tinimex, we focus on measurable quality parameters because we understand your priorities: compliance with importing country regulations, consistent product performance, and profitability. From harvest selection to moisture control, metal detection, and third-party testing, every step in our process is designed to give you data-backed confidence in your sourcing decisions.
If your brand values stability, food safety, and long-term supplier partnerships, then it’s time to rethink what quality really means.
2. Volatile Oil (VO) – Where Tinimex Leads the Market
Tinimex batches average 2.7–3.0% VO, while the general market often delivers cassia at 2.0–2.3% VO.
Why this matters:
- Stronger aroma in teas, extracts, seasonings
- Better performance in essential oil production
- Verified by third-party COAs

3. Moisture Content – Controlling Shelf Life and Mold Risk
Premium cassia must maintain 10–12% moisture. Cassia above 13% risks:
- Mold or decay during transit
- Extra shipping weight from absorbed humidity
- Failed customs microbiology tests
Our team controls this via sun drying, low-humidity storage, and humidity-controlled packing.
4. Cleanliness Standards – Sorting, Dust Control, and QA
Tinimex cassia is hand-sorted and machine-brushed to remove:
- Bark dust
- Foreign matter (leaf bits, twigs)
- Moldy or insect-damaged bark
We follow visual + microbial hygiene checks at 3 points:
- Raw input at facility
- After cutting and drying
- During packing

7. Why Buyers Pay More for Performance, Not Price
While low-grade cassia may seem cheaper upfront, it creates long-term cost through:
- Higher product waste (dust, moisture)
- Customs clearance delays
- Shorter shelf life in hot or humid markets
Tinimex offers consistency, transparency, and product protection that protects your bottom line.
