We are the only manufacturer that we have patented 3 different technics for walnut cracking, based on the specific characteristic of walnut varieties.

  • Third method, by two rotary plates is a more industrial way of cracking, in which the appearance of the meat is not so important.

  • On January 2020, we patented a new system for the very hard walnuts, where we had the problem that the kernels sticked inside the shells and could be separated only by workers and needles. We are proud that now these kernels can now be removed by a totally mechanical way with 100% success.
