Parlan In-Shell Walnuts

Owing to the ultra-thin paper-shell trait, average crack-out yield ranges between 45% and 50% of gross weight, delivering superior commercial value compared to thick-shelled commercial alternatives.

Nuts undergo buoyant gravity water flotation, gentle hot-air drying, and mechanical vibratory sizing, curbing blind, hollow, or desiccated nuts to below 1.5%.

Domestic MOQ is 500 kg, while export inquiries require at least 3 metric tons. A 20ft container carries 8-9 tons, and a 40ft High Cube fits up to 18 tons on ventilated pallets.

Moisture is reduced below 6% using indirect forced-air driers operated under 35°C, preserving sensitive fats while entirely eradicating mold proliferation risks.

Breathable sacks facilitate continuous aeration and prevent condensation cycles ("container sweat"), shielding walnut kernels from darkening and enzymatic decay on long voyages.

Shipments include a Phytosanitary Certificate, Fumigation Certificate, accredited laboratory Aflatoxin COA, Certificate of Origin, and detailed commercial packing list.

The wooden shell functions as a physical buffer against light, oxygen, and temperature swings, granting in-shell nuts up to 18 months of ambient life versus 6-9 months for shelled meats under refrigeration.
