Sorting of raw cashew nuts
Most domestic customers do not know that there are various types of raw cashew nuts and their prices are completely different, here are types of raw cashew nuts according to export standards:
Raw cashew nuts sorted by size:
Sorting by size only applies to whole cashew nuts (W-whole). There are several types such as: W180, W210, W240, W320, W450, W500, the above numbers represent the number of nuts per Pound.
Sorted by size, common types of Binh Phuoc cashew nuts are W240, W320, W450, however, the quality of cashew nuts is considered as superior. For example: white cashew nuts W180 (King cashew nuts) with 170 – 180 nuts per Pound.
Sorting by shape:
Raw cashew nuts undergo many processing stages, some of them may not be intact, split or broken. Normally, cashew nuts from Cambodia and Africa have higher rate of breakage than Binh Phuoc cashew nuts.
Specifically, for the categories sorted by shape, we will have the following symbols:
+ W (Wholes) means whole cashew nuts
+ S (Splits) means that cashew nuts are split in half
+ B (Butts) means that cashew nuts are broken in half
+ P (Pieces) means that cashew nuts are broken into pieces
+ LWP (Large White Pieces) means that cashew nuts are broken into relatively large pieces
+ SWP (Small White Pieces) means that cashew nuts are broken into small pieces
+ BB (Baby Bits) means that cashew nuts are broken into extreme small pieces
+ WS means that cashew nuts are broken in half
In addition, raw cashew nuts are also sorted by color. After drying, cashew nuts may turn into dark yellow (S-Scorched) or white (W-White), depending on the moisture in cashew nuts.
