The Santa Cruz Shredder range at Evertree, the full aluminium 2, 3, 4 piece grinders in small, medium and large, the 2-piece hemp grinders, the All-In-One Hemp Rolling Kit, Rolling Kit, Traveler and Grinder Grease.

Santa Cruz Shredder is one of the best-known premium grinder brands, recognised for its fluffy, consistent grind and patented tooth design. The patented eight-surface tooth design was developed with a NASA engineer, and the aluminium bodies use medical-grade anodised aluminium with aerospace anodising techniques. SCS also offers a hemp composite line as a sustainable alternative alongside the aluminium range. Evertree carries the Santa Cruz Shredder UK range covered by this page.

About Santa Cruz Shredder

Santa Cruz Shredder is the Santa Cruz, California company that set out in 2007 to redesign the standard herb grinder from scratch. A small group of friends, inspired by the surf and skate culture of Santa Cruz, developed the grinder with input from a NASA engineer. The result was an anodised aluminium grinder built around a patented eight-surface tooth design, which became Santa Cruz Shredder’s defining feature.

Santa Cruz Shredder presents its grinders as USA-made. Aluminium grinders use medical-grade anodised aluminium, finished with aerospace anodising techniques that create a protective coating to resist corrosion, wear and “galling” of threaded parts. The hemp range, introduced as a sustainable alternative, is made from a natural hemp composite and offers many of the same benefits as the aluminium range, including a fluffy, consistent grind in a lower-cost format.

What Makes Santa Cruz Shredder Different

The tooth design is one of the main reasons Santa Cruz Shredder stands out. Many standard herb grinders use basic tooth patterns that can crush or compress material as they turn. Santa Cruz Shredder’s patented eight-surface tooth design was developed using CAD software, with teeth radiused at the base for strength and shaped to cut in multiple ways. The aim is a fluffy, consistent grind that works well for rolling, packing and dry herb vaporizer use.

The second distinctive is the threading. Many cheaper aluminium grinders use basic threaded sections that can wear, bind or become harder to twist over time. Santa Cruz Shredder’s anodised threads paired with rare-earth magnets (on the aluminium line) hold the device together reliably for years of use. SCS also offers a Limited Lifetime Warranty against breakage of the patented Shredder teeth under normal use, which is a genuine engineering confidence statement even though it doesn’t cover scratches, dents or user damage.

The third is the hemp line. The SCS hemp composite range is based on the same SCS focus on fluffy, consistent shredding, but in a sustainable, lower-cost format. For users who want the SCS grind quality without aluminium, or who want a lower-priced entry point into the brand, the hemp range gives SCS a strong sustainable option alongside its aluminium grinders.

The Santa Cruz Shredder Range at Evertree

We carry the Santa Cruz Shredder UK lineup at Evertree across four categories: the 2-piece hemp composite grinders, the aluminium grinder range (in 2, 3 and 4 piece configurations across small, medium and large sizes), rolling kits, and accessories including the Traveler and Grinder Grease.

Hemp Composite Range


Santa Cruz Shredder hemp biodegradable 2-piece herb grinder

Santa Cruz Shredder Hemp Grinder

The Hemp Grinder is the entry-level option in the SCS range, a 2-piece grinder made from a biodegradable hemp composite. The hemp grinder carries over the same SCS focus on smooth, consistent shredding, giving users a similar fluffy grind in a lighter hemp composite build. The Hemp Grinder is non-magnetic, so the top is not secured for storage in the same way as the aluminium models, but it still offers a reliable everyday grind at a lower price. Available in multiple colours.

  • Build: Biodegradable hemp composite
  • Format: 2-piece (no magnets, top unsecured for storage)
  • Teeth: SCS-style tooth design for a fluffy, consistent grind
  • Colours: Multiple options available
  • Best for: Users who want SCS grind quality in a sustainable, lower-cost format.

Santa Cruz Shredder Hemp Grinder Eco biodegradable 2-piece grinder

Santa Cruz Shredder Hemp Grinder Eco

The Hemp Grinder Eco is an earlier-generation 2-piece hemp grinder, kept in the UK lineup at Evertree for users who specifically want the original Eco variant. Same biodegradable hemp composite build, similar SCS-style tooth design and the same non-magnetic format. The differences from the current Hemp Grinder are mostly cosmetic and packaging-related rather than functional, and stock is limited as this is a legacy product.

  • Build: Biodegradable hemp composite
  • Format: 2-piece (no magnets)
  • Teeth: SCS-style tooth design for a fluffy, consistent grind
  • Status: Legacy product, limited UK stock at Evertree
  • Best for: Users who specifically want the original Eco hemp variant.

Santa Cruz Shredder All-In-One Hemp Rolling Kit with tray, grinder and tube

All-In-One Hemp Rolling Kit

The All-In-One Hemp Rolling Kit is SCS’s complete hemp composite starter package, bundling three products in a single kit: a hemp rolling tray for prep, a hemp 2-piece grinder for breaking material down, and a hemp storage tube for finished rolls. All three components share the same biodegradable hemp composite build as the standalone Hemp Grinder.

The kit is sized to function as a portable daily-carry set. The tray gives you space for rolling work, the grinder is designed for the same fluffy SCS-style grind, and the tube holds rolled material in a sealed container. Available in multiple colours that match across the components. For users who want a sustainable, complete SCS-styled kit in one purchase, this is the right pick.

  • Includes: Hemp tray, hemp 2-piece grinder, hemp storage tube
  • Build: Biodegradable hemp composite across all components
  • Colours: Multiple coordinated colourways
  • Best for: Users who want a complete sustainable rolling kit in one purchase.

Santa Cruz Shredder Rolling Kit with carry case, hemp rolling tray and hemp grinder

Santa Cruz Shredder Rolling Kit

The SCS Rolling Kit is a compact hemp carry setup built around a carrying case, small eco-friendly hemp rolling tray and SCS 2-piece eco-friendly hemp grinder. It is different from the All-In-One Hemp Rolling Kit, which is a simpler tray, grinder and tube set without the carry case.

The case adds two smell-proof pockets, a rolling paper sleeve, lighter holder, carbon filter system, lockable design and waterproof zipper. For users who want a portable Santa Cruz Shredder setup with storage, prep space and a hemp grinder in one kit, this is the right pick.

  • Includes: Carrying case, small hemp rolling tray and SCS 2-piece hemp grinder
  • Case: Smell-proof pockets, paper sleeve, lighter holder, carbon filter, lockable design and waterproof zipper
  • Best for: Users who want a portable hemp rolling setup with a carry case.

Aluminium Grinders

The aluminium range is what built Santa Cruz Shredder’s reputation. All aluminium grinders use medical-grade anodised aluminium, anodised threads, rare-earth magnets and the patented eight-surface tooth design across the full range. The choice between 2, 3 and 4 piece is about how you handle ground material, not about grind quality, which is identical across the three formats. Sizes (small, medium, large) determine chamber volume and overall device dimensions.


Santa Cruz Shredder 2-piece aluminium herb grinder

2-Piece Aluminium Grinders

The 2-piece is the simplest SCS configuration: top and bottom, with the teeth doing all the work in a single grinding chamber. Ground material stays in the same chamber, so this is the right pick for users who grind and use immediately rather than storing ground product for later. The two-piece format is also the most compact for the given size, since there’s no separate kief or collection chamber adding height. Available in three sizes:


Santa Cruz Shredder 3-piece aluminium herb grinder with collection chamber

3-Piece Aluminium Grinders

The 3-piece adds a collection chamber below the grinding teeth, separated by gaps that let ground material fall through and collect cleanly below. This separates the grinding action from the storage area, which keeps the teeth cleaner over time and makes it easier to scoop ground material out without contaminating the cutting surfaces. The right pick for users who grind sessions in advance and store ready material for later use. Available in three sizes:


Santa Cruz Shredder 4-piece aluminium herb grinder with kief catcher

4-Piece Aluminium Grinders

The 4-piece is the most fully-featured SCS, adding a kief catcher at the bottom of the device with a fine micron mesh screen separating it from the main collection chamber. As ground material passes through the teeth and falls into the collection chamber, fine trichome powder (kief) filters through the screen and collects in the bottom chamber for separate use. The mesh is a key engineering feature on SCS, finer than the screens most cheaper grinders use, so the collected kief is genuinely high-quality rather than just dust. The right pick for users who want to harvest kief regularly. Available in three sizes:

Travel and Accessories


Santa Cruz Shredder Traveler 4-piece small portable grinder

Santa Cruz Shredder Traveler

The Traveler is SCS’s purpose-built portable 4-piece grinder, based on the 4-piece small format but optimised for daily-carry use. Same patented tooth design, same aluminium build, same kief catcher and mesh screen, but in a form factor designed to live in a pocket or small bag without being a chunky object. For users who want full 4-piece SCS grind capability in the most pocketable possible package, the Traveler is the right pick over the standard 4-piece small.

  • Format: 4-piece small, travel-optimised
  • Build: Medical-grade anodised aluminium, anodised threads, magnetic top
  • Teeth: Patented 8-surface design
  • Kief catcher: Fine micron mesh screen
  • Best for: Daily-carry users who want full 4-piece capability in the most pocketable SCS format.

Santa Cruz Shredder Grinder Grease for aluminium grinder thread maintenance

Santa Cruz Shredder Grinder Grease

The Grinder Grease is SCS’s purpose-formulated lubricant for keeping aluminium grinder threads turning smoothly over years of use. Although the anodised threading on SCS aluminium grinders is engineered to prevent galling and wear, regular grinder use eventually compresses material into the threads and makes the device harder to twist. A small application of Grinder Grease can help restore a smoother turning action and keep the threads easier to use.

For users who own one or more SCS aluminium grinders (or the Traveler), the Grease is a worthwhile small investment to maintain the device for years. It’s not needed for the hemp range, which uses a different non-threaded format.

  • Purpose: Thread lubricant for SCS aluminium grinders
  • Compatible: All SCS aluminium 2, 3, 4 piece grinders and the Traveler
  • Use: Small application helps restore smooth twist action
  • Best for: Anyone who owns an SCS aluminium grinder and wants to maintain it long term.

How to Choose the Right Santa Cruz Shredder

The choice usually comes down to three questions: material (aluminium or hemp), piece count (2, 3 or 4), and size (small, medium or large).

If you want SCS’s flagship aluminium experience at the standard premium price, start with the piece-count question. Pick a 2-piece if you grind and use immediately, a 3-piece if you grind in advance and want ground material to fall into a separate collection chamber, or a 4-piece if you want a kief catcher to collect trichomes for separate use. The 4-piece medium is our best-selling SCS at Evertree and the most-recommended single grinder if you’re not sure where to start.

If you want the most pocketable SCS in the daily-carry size range, the Traveler is purpose-built for that use case while keeping the full 4-piece capability.

If sustainability matters or you want the lowest entry price into the brand, the Hemp Grinder gives you a similar SCS-style fluffy grind in a biodegradable hemp composite build. The trade-off is no magnet for the top, but it still gives you the fluffy, consistent grind SCS is known for.

If you want a complete kit in one purchase, pick the All-In-One Hemp Rolling Kit for the sustainable hemp composite option, or the SCS Rolling Kit for a hemp grinder, tray and carry case setup.

If you already own an SCS aluminium grinder, the Grinder Grease is the maintenance accessory that keeps the threading turning smoothly for years rather than just months.

Santa Cruz Shredder FAQ

Are Santa Cruz Shredder grinders any good?

Santa Cruz Shredder is widely regarded as one of the leading premium herb grinder brands. The patented eight-surface tooth design, developed with input from a NASA engineer, is designed to produce a fluffy, even grind, while the medical-grade anodised aluminium construction and anodised threads support long-term durability. Many experienced users and reviewers rank SCS among the top premium grinder brands alongside Phoenician.

Where are Santa Cruz Shredder grinders made?

Santa Cruz Shredder is a Santa Cruz, California company founded in 2007 by a small group of friends with input from a NASA engineer on the tooth geometry. Santa Cruz Shredder presents its grinders as USA-made, with the aluminium range made from medical-grade anodised aluminium and the hemp range made from biodegradable hemp composite.

What’s the difference between 2, 3 and 4 piece grinders?

The piece count refers to how the grinder is constructed in layers. A 2-piece has a top and bottom only, with the teeth in a single grinding chamber. A 3-piece adds a separate collection chamber below the teeth, with gaps that let ground material fall through and store separately. A 4-piece adds a kief catcher below the collection chamber with a fine mesh screen, so trichome powder filters through and collects separately for use. Grind quality is identical across all three formats. Pick by how you want to handle ground material.

What sizes do Santa Cruz Shredder grinders come in?

Each aluminium piece count (2, 3, 4) is available in three sizes: small, medium and large. The size determines chamber volume and overall dimensions. Small is best for personal pocket carry; medium is the most common daily-use size and Evertree’s best-selling SCS configuration overall (specifically the 4-piece medium); large is for users who grind larger amounts in advance or for group sessions.

What is the SCS Hemp Grinder made of?

The Hemp Grinder is built from a biodegradable hemp composite combining hemp fibers with a bioplastic binder. The hemp grinder is designed to offer many of the same benefits as the aluminium range, including a fluffy, consistent grind. The main functional difference is the absence of a magnet on top (deliberate, to keep the build natural and sustainable), so the top isn’t secured for cannabis storage in transit.

Which Santa Cruz Shredder is best for beginners?

The Hemp Grinder is the easiest entry point at the lowest price, offering a fluffy, consistent SCS-style grind in a sustainable hemp composite build. If you want to start with the aluminium range directly, a 2-piece medium covers most daily-use cases at a reasonable entry price, or step up to our best-selling 4-piece medium if you want the kief catcher and collection chamber from the start.

What’s the Santa Cruz Shredder Traveler?

The Traveler is SCS’s purpose-built portable 4-piece grinder. It’s based on the 4-piece small format but optimised for daily-carry use, with the same patented tooth design, aluminium construction, magnetic top and kief catcher in a more pocket-friendly form. Pick it over the standard 4-piece small if portability matters most.

Do I need the Grinder Grease?

Not immediately. SCS aluminium grinders ship with anodised threads engineered to prevent galling and wear, so they twist smoothly out of the box and stay smooth for a long time. After heavy use over months or years the threads can collect compressed material that makes twisting harder. A small application of Grinder Grease at that point can help restore a smoother turning action. The Grease is a long-term maintenance investment rather than something needed at purchase time. Not needed for the hemp range, which doesn’t use threaded construction.

Do Santa Cruz Shredder grinders have a warranty?

Yes. SCS aluminium grinders are covered by a Limited Lifetime Warranty specifically against breakage of the patented Shredder teeth under normal use. The warranty does not cover scratches, dents or user damage to the body. Hemp composite grinders are covered by a standard manufacturer warranty. Warranty support is handled through Evertree as the authorised UK retailer.

Does Evertree ship Santa Cruz Shredder to the UK?

Every SCS order is dispatched from our UK warehouse on Royal Mail tracked 48-hour delivery. Larger aluminium grinders, the SCS Rolling Kit and the Traveler each cross our £59 free shipping threshold on their own; smaller grinders, the hemp range and the Grinder Grease are under that line individually but qualify automatically when ordered with any other item or two. Paid next-day delivery is selectable at checkout if needed.
