Common Questions About Red Chilli

Detailed answers for buyers, importers, and procurement teams sourcing Indian Red Chilli from ORIFIELDS INTERNATIONAL.

What red chilli varieties does Orifields export and what are their key differences?+

Kashmiri (ASTA 40–80, mild heat, brilliant red for colouring), Guntur (ASTA 40–120, medium-high heat, most exported), Byadagi (ASTA 120–180+, low heat, premium oleoresin), Teja S17 (50,000+ SHU, high heat for industrial hot sauce and capsaicin extraction).

What is ASTA colour value and why does it matter for red chilli exports?+

ASTA measures red pigment intensity (capsanthin/capsorubin content). Higher ASTA = more intense natural red colour. Food manufacturers and oleoresin producers specify ASTA value for procurement — Byadagi commands premium at 120–180+.

Does Orifields supply steam-sterilised red chilli for regulated markets?+

Yes — steam-sterilised whole and powder chilli is available for EU, USA, and Japan markets with strict food safety microbial standards. Irradiation-treated chilli is also available for specific markets.

What industrial applications use Indian red chilli beyond culinary use?+

Natural food colouring (oleoresin paprika E160c), capsaicin pharmaceutical extraction for topical pain relief creams, industrial insect repellents, and veterinary nutraceuticals for animal feed supplements globally.
