Why Moisture Content Matters in Every Charcoal Batch You Buy

When it comes to buying coconut charcoal, one detail can make or break your shipment: moisture content. It’s not just a technical term—it directly affects the quality, shelf life, burning performance, and shipping stability of your charcoal.
High moisture content leads to a host of problems:
Charcoal that cracks or breaks during transport
Mold growth during transit or storage
Longer ignition time and lower heat output
Reduced shelf life, especially in humid environments
On the other hand, charcoal with properly controlled moisture ensures:
Stronger, more durable briquettes
Efficient burning with high heat and low ash
Longer storage life and better overall performance
That’s why we monitor moisture at every stage of production—from drying and pressing to packing. Our in-house QC team tests every batch before it gets loaded, using moisture meters and third-party lab tests to guarantee accuracy.
Our standard?
Below 6% moisture content—ideal for both shisha and BBQ applications
Lab-proven, with results from Carsurin, Intertek, or Bureau Veritas
Consistently monitored from production floor to final container
We don’t take shortcuts—especially when it comes to quality control. We document moisture levels in every COA (Certificate of Analysis) and provide lab results with every order upon request.
If you’re tired of shipments that arrive wet, soft, or moldy—it’s time to work with a supplier who puts moisture control at the center of quality.
