Production process
From raw nut to container
Raw nut sourcing
Raw cashew nuts bought in Vietnam and Cambodia, checked for out-turn and moisture.
Cleaning & calibration
Nuts are cleaned and sized so each batch steams and cuts evenly.
Steaming
Controlled steam conditioning loosens the shell from the kernel.
Shelling
Nuts are cut and the kernels separated from the shell.
Drying
Kernels are dried to bring moisture down for peeling and storage.
Peeling
The testa (skin) is removed, or kept on for skin-on grades.
Grading & sorting
Kernels are graded by size, colour and wholeness into export grades.
Inspection, packing & loading
X-ray check for foreign matter, vacuum or tin packing, then container loading.
Certificates
Certified food safety
Our factory runs an ISO 22000:2018 food safety management system for processing, packaging and distributing cashew kernels. Our products are HALAL certified under the JAKIM scheme, and our company is registered with the U.S. FDA.
