THE MANY USES OF BLACK WALNUT SHELLS
More than 60 years ago, Hammons Products Company began marketing and selling American Black Walnut shells in the United States. The shells make up a large percentage of the nut and serve as a very useful product for a wide range of applications. It is an excellent soft grit abrasive media used for blast cleaning and tumbling. The shell is used by the oil industry as lost circulation material and as a filter media cleaning produced water. Most recently, Black Walnut shells have been discovered as a great natural medium for athletic turf fields. Black Walnut is the main shell that we grind and size. We also process English and Pecan shells. Our nutshell products are sold directly to customers and through distributors worldwide.
