Our charcoal is made where the world’s best coconuts grow. Sri Lanka provides not only the raw material but also the decades-old artisanal expertise that transforms a coconut shell into exceptional charcoal.
Through our direct partnership with the local manufacturer, we oversee every step, from selecting the shells to the final packaging. No middlemen, no compromises. What you receive is exactly what we’ve personally approved.
This isn’t just a promise.
This is our certification number: DIN plus P1G071.
“Customized solutions, unique manufacturing processes, and quality born of experience.”

High goals.
Most suppliers source their coconut charcoal from Indonesia, where palm bark is often mixed in as a cheap filler. Bark is considered waste there and is available for free, but it delivers significantly poorer results than pure coconut shell.
Here at PRESADI, we use only genuine coconut shells from Sri Lanka—no bark, no fillers. The result is measurably better performance: In our independent test conducted by FORCE Technology Denmark, our charcoal achieved a burn time of 250 minutes at over 180°C and an ash content of just 4.7%, less than one-third of the maximum allowed under DIN plus standards.
Our warehouse is located in Reutlingen, near Stuttgart. Orders are typically prepared for shipment within one business day. The actual delivery time depends on the quantity and distance and will be coordinated with you on a case-by-case basis. For a specific estimate, please feel free to contact us.
For generations, Sri Lanka has been one of the world’s leading coconut-growing regions. The tropical climate and the producers’ expertise, honed over decades, ensure consistently high-quality coconut shells. Among connoisseurs, coconut charcoal from Sri Lanka therefore enjoys a particularly good reputation—a difference you can really taste when grilling or smoking a hookah.
