What are Sulphured Dried Apricots?

Sulphured dried apricots are whole pitted apricots, sun-dried in Malatya and treated with sulphur dioxide (SO₂) for color retention. The SO₂ process keeps the bright orange color, prevents browning and extends shelf life to 12-18 months. Ideal for retail shelves, snack industry and confectionery.

Looking for unsulphured option? See our Natural Sun-Dried Apricots (Gun Kurusu).
