SunRice's new microwavable pouch improves rice quality

Australian rice producer SunRice has announced it has enhanced its microwave pouch range to create rice that is fluffier, softer and tastier than its previous products.

The company has invested $4.5 million in upgrading its specialty rice foods facility in Leeton in the Riverina region of Australia to deliver the microwavable products.

SunRice said that its microwave pouches will now undergo an improved manufacturing process incorporating a new technique that delivers higher quality rice than previously, all while reducing energy and water usage.

Also with a new packaging design, the new microwave pouch range is available in brown, brown and quinoa, basmati, jasmine and long grain rice 250 g and 450 g pouches.
