In 2005, when there was less awareness of s Italian products, Mulino Padano was the first Italian company to develop a range of flours using 100% Italian wheat, the Granaio Italiano project.
In the wake of that intuition, Granaio Italiano today offers high-end flours, with a certified supply chain in accordance with the UNI EN ISO 22005:2008 standard (cert. no. 45231 issued by CSQA), milled from grain grown exclusively on the land around our mill.
Discover the choices behind Granaio Italiano that led us to these generous and sincere products, rediscovered from tradition and enriched by strict controls and modern procedures.
We choose proximity
Our mill is located along the banks of the Po River, the area where the best national soft wheat is grown and where we mill it to produce the Granaio Italiano range of flours.
We choose quality
The proximity of this grain is combined with the high quality inherent to these lands and it is our millers hands, with their time-honoured experience, that give body to the most calibrated of blends.
We choose control
We collaborate with certified collection and storage centers and we do not skip a single step of our wheat’s journey. The plot of land from which it originates, the date of its sowing and the treatments carried out on it are all recorded in the Quaderno di Campagna (Country Notebook), which traces the wheat from the field to our mill.
We choose purity
The Granaio Italiano supply chain follows its wheat’s journey from sowing to harvesting, from the field to the silo; we control it, analyse it and sift it using the most advanced optical selection systems, to guarantee the purity and food safety that it deserves.
We choose traceability
We want to guarantee and honour the path of the Granaio Italiano supply chain. Thanks to our advanced computerized traceability system, you can thank the very farmer who grew the wheat for your products.
