Understanding Hirata Sangyo's Needs
We understand that Hirata Sangyo values high-quality maple syrup with a focus on organic options, as indicated by your product offerings. Our ability to supply both organic and non-organic maple syrup in bulk aligns perfectly with your needs. We offer flexibility in packaging and can assist in bottling the syrup in Japan, allowing for customization to meet local market preferences.
Bottling Process
In case you need it, here is a short summary of how you can view the bottling process. Many customers choose to purchase bulk maple syrup from us to launch their own brands. This cost-effective method involves procuring wholesale maple syrup to be shipped directly to a bottling facility in their desired import country.Given that Hirata Sangyo already bottles oil, we believe that integrating maple syrup bottling into your operations will be seamless. Our process is straightforward and utilizes equipment similar to what you may already have for oil bottling.
Transfer and Warmth:
Upon receipt, your maple syrup will be at room temperature. Transfer it to a double boiler to gently warm it to 85°C. This step ensures pasteurization and quality maintenance.
Bottling at 85°C:
Transfer the warmed maple syrup into bottles at 85°C. Pasteurization within bottles guarantees extended shelf life.
Sugar Concentration Adjustment
Be cautious not to over-concentrate the syrup during the double boiling process. Adjust the sugar level by adding water. Aim for a final sugar level between 66° and 68° Brix.

Bottle Selection:
Avoid corked caps for long-term storage, as corks may dry out. Opt for smaller bottles (up to 250 ml) to ensure successful pasteurization. For larger bottles, pre-warm them with boiling water before filling.
Essential Equipment for Maple Syrup Bottling:
Brix Refractometer: Measures sugar content.
Digital Meter or Colorimeter: Gauges color and grade.
120V Pump: Transfers syrup to the double boiler.
Double Boiler: Warms syrup before bottling.

In the past, the price of maple syrup followed the economics of supply and demand, with prices varying significantly due to harvest fluctuations from one season to another.To solve this problem, between 1998 and 2000, the PPAQ created the strategic reserve of maple syrup and established the first marketing agreements between producers and authorized buyers.Since we work closely with the PPAQ, when purchasing maple syrup at Maple Syrup From Canada Inc., you can be guaranteed to get stable wholesale prices from one year to another. The price of bulk maple syrup will vary according to the quality and the quantity you will need.
