The milling process in Al-Taj Mills is fully automatic with wheat received in bulk and stored in silos. It is cleaned in the newest Bühler Group machinery, including the Sortex machine, which uses optical sorting to achieve top hygiene levels. Milling, sieving, and sifting take place through Bühler rolls and plan sifters. The product then passes through the impact machine MJZG to destroy insects and insect eggs, making the flour more suitable for storage.
The finished flour is stored in concrete silos. Flour is delivered to customers either in bulk through flour trailers or packaged in 50-kg polypropylene bags that are produced by one of Al-Hazaa Investment Group’s companies in Jordan.
Flour is distributed under different brand names, including Platinum flour, Dream flour, Motamayez flour, and Alasfar flour. Flour is delivered to customers in the entire Egyptian market such as Rich Bake and Bisco Misr (Kellogg’s). About 28% of the company’s production is bran and is delivered to feed mills in Egypt.
