Can I buy 1 tone of coconut charcoal briquettes?
What is the Minimum Order Quantity for wholesale orders of hookah coals?
In short, the minimum order starts from 18 tons of shisha charcoal.
Long answer:
We must explain several shisha charcoal characteristics to understand why the minimum order starts from 18 tons.Our hookah coals factory is located in Magelang, Indonesia, so we deliver wholesale orders by sea containers – either 20-foot or 40-foot containers.
Why not deliver by air? Simply put, it is very costly – delivery by air will cost you from 2 to 5 USD per kg – more than the cost of charcoal itself.
In a 20-foot container, we can load 17 to 20 tons of shisha charcoal, depending on size and packaging type. For the popular 25mm cube charcoal with full packaging, we fit up to 18.5 tons. With bulk packaging ((inner box 1 kg = master box 10kg). We fit up to 19.5 tons as packaging influences the volume.
Packaging can significantly influence your volume in a 20” ft container. For example, with bulk packaging (only master box without inner boxes), you can load up to 19.5 tons.
The 20-foot container’s 33.1 cubic meter volume is the limiting factor – it looks completely stuffed after loading the charcoal boxes.
As for the 40” ft container, on the contrary, we are limited by weight. The maximum volume of charcoal we can load inside 40” ft container is 25-26 tons. So, in a 40 ft container, we can load 25 tons of charcoal with full packaging and 26 tons with bulk packaging.
The weight is of charcoal without its packaging. With packaging, the total weight will be 27-29 tons.
But the container volume is still half empty in the 40” ft container; about 40-50% is empty. That is why we can use both standard and High Qube (HQ) containers.
LCL vs FCL
LCL means less container load – when we stuff the container not full, but, for example, mixing with other products. Unfortunately, shipping lines are not allowed to do LCL for shisha charcoal.You must avoid mixing shisha charcoal with other goods in the same container—only FCL (full container load is allowed).
If you order one ton, 10 tons, or 15 tons, you still have to pay for the full container price and documentation. Of this, the cost of transportation per kilo of charcoal will increase significantly.
One more important note. If you order less than 18 tons, the cost of printing packaging will also increase, as the less you print, the higher the per-piece cost.
Our general price list of charcoal is calculated based on an order of 18 tons.
Conclusion
The minimum order for shisha charcoal is 18 tons; basically, we can sell you less than that, like 2 -4-10-15 tons, but the question is how you will deliver, as LCL shipping is currently not allowed by most shipping lines. And for sure, the cost of charcoal will be higher, as the packaging cost will increase.

Are hookah coals activated charcoals?
No, hookah coals are not activated charcoal. While it is commonly misreperesented as activated charcoal and even if you google it will tell you wrong answer)). So, please note that hookah coals are not activated charcoal.
The coconut shells are burned in a low-oxygen environment, then mixed with water and pressed into the desired shape, such as cubes, sticks, or hexagons. This type of charcoal is popular for hookah smoking because it burns evenly and produces minimal ash.
While activated charcoal may be used in some hookah coals, it is not the most common material used. Activated charcoal is more commonly used in various industries such as medicine, water filtration, and air purification, among others.
