Shisha charcoal

Coconut shell cubes and hexagons for hookah lounges and brands.

Shisha charcoal is judged on three numbers: fixed carbon, ash, and burn time. Our cubes run 75% fixed carbon minimum with white ash at 2.5% maximum; hexagons run 73% and 3%. Both hold heat past 80 minutes without spark or smell.

What separates lounge-grade from retail-grade shisha charcoal?

Lounges reorder on burn time and ash color, so cube spec is the stricter line: 7,000 kcal/kg minimum and 90 minutes plus. Retail hexagons trade a few points of carbon for a lower shelf price. Both come from the same shell stock and binder recipe.

How is each shisha batch verified?

Every pressed batch is burn-tested before drying is signed off: ignition behavior, ash percentage and color, cracking, and time to ash-over. The numbers go on the batch record and the CoA for the container that carries it.

Can boxes carry your brand?

Yes. 1 kg inner boxes and master cartons print to your artwork with a 200-carton minimum per design. Stickered neutral boxes are available for trial orders.
