Our coconut shisha charcoal comes in three grades — Platinum, Super Premium and Premium — separated mainly by ash content and moisture. Platinum runs the lowest ash at 1.6–1.9% and the driest cores (3–4% moisture after oven); Super Premium sits at 1.9–2.2% ash; Premium at 1.9–2.5%. Every grade burns with no smell and no smoke.
Platinum coconut shisha charcoal has the lowest ash content at 1.6–1.9% and 3–4% moisture after oven (verified 15 July 2026).
All three grades — Platinum, Super Premium and Premium — burn with no smell and no smoke (verified 15 July 2026).
Grades are separated by ash content and moisture; on-packing moisture runs 4–8% across grades (verified 15 July 2026).
| Attribute | Platinum | Super Premium | Premium | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ash content | 1.6–1.9% | 1.9–2.2% | 1.9–2.5% | Lower ash means cleaner burning and less residue in the bowl. |
| Moisture (after oven) | 3–4% | 4–5% | 5–6% | Low moisture straight after drying lights faster and burns hotter. |
| Moisture (on packing) | 4–8% | 5–8% | 6–8% | Moisture at packing shows how dry the coals stay through storage and transit. |
| Smell | No smell | No smell | No smell | An odourless coal keeps the shisha flavour clean. |
| Smoke | No smoke | No smoke | No smoke | No smoke means a clean, low-odour light-up. |
Typical quality ranges per grade. Confirm against this exporter's published Certificate of Analysis (COA) and burn-test data.
How the three grades differ
The grades share the same coconut-shell base and differ mainly in two lab figures: ash content and moisture. Ash is lowest on Platinum (1.6–1.9%), a little higher on Super Premium (1.9–2.2%) and Premium (1.9–2.5%) — lower ash means a cleaner burn and less residue in the bowl.
Moisture is reported twice: straight after oven-drying (3–6% depending on grade) and again on packing (4–8%), which reflects how the coals settle before they ship. Every grade is produced to be no smell and no smoke once fully lit.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between Platinum, Super Premium and Premium charcoal?
Mainly ash content and moisture. Platinum has the lowest ash (1.6–1.9%) and driest cores (3–4% after oven), Super Premium is 1.9–2.2% ash, and Premium is 1.9–2.5%. All three are no smell and no smoke.
Do all grades burn with no smell and no smoke?
Yes. Platinum, Super Premium and Premium are all produced to burn with no smell and no smoke once fully lit.
Why are there two moisture figures?
One is measured straight after oven-drying and the other on packing. The on-packing figure (4–8%) is higher because the coals reabsorb a little moisture before they ship.
