Fresh Banana Leaves — Export Specification
Product: fresh banana leaves (daun pisang segar), food-wrapping grade. Origin: farm-direct from smallholder farms across Indonesia — sorted and vacuum-packed at our Tangerang handling point, farm origin documented per lot. Maintained by the TapakNusa export desk — final commercial terms live only in a signed contract.
Grade standards
| Grade | Standard | Rejected at sorting |
|---|---|---|
| A (Export) | No tears · length ≥100 cm per leaf (target 120-150 cm; per-buyer spec) · fresh, full green · mature leaf, not too young or old · cleaned — free of visible foreign matter · variety stated per lot · vacuum-packed 1 kg packs | Dark/blackened edges · torn midrib · young pale leaves · insect damage · >5% moisture stains on the bundle |
| B (Standard) | Below Grade A physical spec · minor edge tears allowed · length ≥80-100 cm · fresh, mature · cleaned before packing | Same rejects as Grade A; edge blemishes under ~2 cm are trimmed, not hidden |
Grading is by physical spec, not by name — the buyer's use-case (restaurant wrap vs retail pack) decides how hard we sort. Season note: heavy-rain weeks raise the risk of edge blackening; we confirm current quality state with photos before you commit.

Documents per shipment
| Document | Issuer / note |
|---|---|
| Phytosanitary Certificate | Barantin (Indonesia's quarantine authority) — available on request. For Singapore, fresh produce for consumption is a food import under SFA rules and does not require a plant-health certificate; we can issue phyto for destinations that ask for it. |
| Certificate of Origin | Form D for ASEAN destinations; other forms per destination |
| Commercial invoice & packing list | TapakNusa — quantities, weights and lot references consistent across the full document set |
| Carton labels (Singapore) | Every carton carries producer name & address, product description and packing date — per the SFA labelling requirement for fresh fruits & vegetables. |
| Buyer-side import licence/permit | Held by the importer — Singapore: the SFA-registered food importer licence is on the buyer's side; we align carton labels and export documents to your destination. |
Supply & lead time
Supplier capacity is being verified through on-site farm visits (Indonesia) — confirmed volume is stated per order, never promised beyond it. Indicative lead time: fresh 3-7 days after PO for short sea lanes (Singapore/Malaysia); frozen or long lanes are scheduled per quotation.
Pricing
Indicative FOB ranges are quoted per inquiry (grade, packing and destination change them). We do not publish internal cost data, and final prices are issued in USD only against confirmed documents. Request a quote via the RFQ form — answered by a human within one working day (target).
