Alphonso Mango Pulp

Treedha sources its Alphonso Mango Pulp (Hapus Aam Ras) exclusively from the revered coastal lowland regions of Ratnagiri and Devgad in Maharashtra, India. These areas are globally recognised for cultivating the original GI-tagged Alphonso mango, which imparts an unparalleled flavour, aroma, and vibrant colour to the pulp. The distinct terroir of the Konkan region contributes to the mango's unique high Brix value and rich sweetness.

The specific origin is paramount for bulk buyers as it guarantees the authenticity and premium quality associated with true Alphonso. Sourcing directly from these regions ensures that the pulp embodies the characteristic floral notes and deep golden-yellow hue that global markets demand for high-end applications in beverages, dairy, and confectionery. Our commitment to single-origin sourcing provides full provenance and consistent quality year after year.

Alphonso Mango Pulp, also known as Hapus Aam Ras or Mangue Alphonso, is traded in bulk with precise specifications to meet the exacting standards of industrial buyers. Key parameters include Total Soluble Solids (°Brix), which typically ranges from 16–18° Brix (at 20°C), reflecting the mango's natural sweetness. Acidity, expressed as citric acid, is generally maintained between 0.5–0.8%, balancing the sweetness and contributing to the pulp's vibrant profile. The pH typically falls between 3.5–4.0, ensuring stability and shelf life.

Consistency is critical, measured by Bostwick at 8–12 cm/30 sec, indicating a smooth, uniform texture free from fibrous material. The pulp exhibits a characteristic bright golden-yellow or orange-yellow colour and a flavour and aroma true to ripe Alphonso mango, devoid of any off-notes. Treedha ensures strict adherence to these specifications, with a focus on purity, guaranteed by the absence of artificial flavours or colours and diligent lab-testing to confirm the absence of black or brown specks. Our processes yield a smooth, shelf-stable pulp with an impressive 24-month ambient shelf life when unopened.

Compliance with stringent international food safety regulations is paramount for Alphonso Mango Pulp (Aamras) exported to the EU and US. Treedha guarantees that our pulp is Ethylene Oxide (ETO)-free; ETO is a Group 1 carcinogen strictly regulated in both markets, and its absence is verified through rigorous testing. We also ensure meticulous monitoring for aflatoxins and mycotoxins, adhering to the strict limits imposed by EU and FDA regulations to prevent contamination.

Pesticide Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs) are consistently met, with lab-testing confirming compliance with EU and US standards. For microbial safety, particularly for organic variants, Salmonella is absent per 25ml, indicating a zero-tolerance policy. Treedha also ensures the complete absence of Sudan Dyes (I, II, III, IV) and heavy metals such as cadmium, arsenic, and lead, which are strictly prohibited in food products due to their carcinogenic effects. Each shipment is accompanied by essential documentation, including a Certificate of Analysis (COA) confirming adherence to agreed specifications and a Phytosanitary Certificate where required, certifying freedom from pests and diseases, crucial for agricultural imports.

The global demand for Alphonso Mango Pulp (Mangue Alphonso) is robust and expanding, driven by increasing consumer preference for natural fruit ingredients and exotic flavours in beverages, dairy, and confectionery. The United States leads as the largest import market for mango purees, while the Netherlands serves as a significant European hub for redistribution, with Germany, the UK, France, and Spain also being key importers. The Middle East, particularly the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Kuwait, shows strong demand for Indian Alphonso pulp, consuming substantial annual volumes.

Beyond these established markets, Asia-Pacific countries like Uzbekistan and Malaysia are emerging as important destinations, diversifying their mango puree imports. Key export destinations for Indian Alphonso pulp in the coming years are projected to include Saudi Arabia, the USA, the UK, Germany, and Canada. This consistent demand is fuelled by the pulp's extensive use in juices, smoothies, yogurts, ice creams, bakery fillings, and even baby food, with the year-round availability of aseptically processed pulp from India further bolstering its appeal.

The appropriate Harmonized System (HS) code for Alphonso Mango Pulp in international trade is critical for customs clearance. While interpretations vary, commonly used HS codes include 2007.99 for mango puree/pulp, with more specific codes like 2007 91 00 (mango pulp) and 20079990 (frozen Alphonso mango pulp) also applicable depending on the specific product form and destination. For the EU, a broader code such as 20089948 may apply for prepared or preserved guavas, mangoes, and similar fruits in immediate packaging over 1kg. Buyers are advised to confirm the precise HS code with a local customs broker.
