SafeShell

Safeshell, unlike other organic infills, remains in position, does not deteriorate, and maintains its integrity in hot or wet climates. The spherical shape of each grain enables the product to withstand compression. It does not float and performs consistently in both wet and dry conditions.

As the most long-lasting natural infill available, Safeshell does not deteriorate or break down. It also does not float, resulting in minimal migration and ensuring it remains in place. With an 8-year warranty and minimal top-up needed, you can rely on Safeshell for athletic fields, yards, playgrounds, and other applications.

Safeshell is highly effective at evaporative cooling, which is essential for maintaining a cooler playing surface. It has the ability to absorb water with minimal expansion and then gradually release it over time, preventing surfaces from heating up too quickly. Even without water, Safeshell still provides a cooler playing experience compared to crumb rubber, even in dry conditions.

With Safeshell you can rest easy knowing that your infill is crafted from 100% natural, organic and food-grade components. Additionally, they developed a process (patent-pending) that decreases the presence of allergens on the shell following its separation from the nut. The process removes allergens to levels below 2.4 parts per million, strictly adhering to FDA guidelines.

The walnuts used in the production of SafeShell are grown entirely in the USA. Therefore, when purchasing Safeshell infill for your residential or commercial application, you’re supporting American farmers and agriculture. Instead of “farm to table,” you can think of it as from farms to fields.

To achieve the best performance, Black and English walnut shells are combined to create Safeshell. Black walnut shells are thicker, resulting in rounder and less abrasive grains once the shells are ground. Using only round grains would be unstable, so they blend them with the thinner, less round grains of ground English shells. The outcome is a proprietary blend that strikes the ideal balance between firmness, speed, and player-friendliness.

Safeshell contains 100% USDA certified biobased content showing that the company meets the high standards set forth by the USDA Secretary of Agriculture. It’s among the first organic infill materials that serve to make artificial turf even more eco-friendly.

Safeshell is a versatile organic infill suitable for use in athletic fields and various landscape settings. It can be utilized in residential and commercial applications including lawns, playgrounds, recreational spaces, and play areas. For smaller landscape projects like backyards, front yards, or commercial lawns, Safeshell is available in 25lb bags and can be delivered to any location within the United States.
