Main raw materials for hookah charcoal

The first step in producing high-quality shisha charcoal is raw material preparation. Common raw materials include:

  • Coconut shell charcoal powder: This is the most commonly used raw material due to its long burning time and pure aroma.
  • Wood charcoal powder, fruit shell charcoal powder, and other natural charcoal materials.
  • A small amount of natural binder (such as starch) is used to help the charcoal powder form into shape.

Before production, the raw materials need to be crushed and sieved, providing a good foundation for subsequent molding. The processed raw materials are then pressed into shape using the specialized hookah charcoal machine.

Manufacturing process of shisha charcoal

  1. Mixing of raw materials: Mix the charcoal powder and other ingredients thoroughly according to the specified proportions, ensuring a uniform mixture without lumps.
  2. Compression molding: The mixed materials are fed into the hookah charcoal briquette making machine, where they are compressed into shisha charcoal under high pressure.
  3. Drying treatment: Newly formed charcoal briquettes have a high moisture content and require natural air drying or oven drying.

Advantages of using hookah charcoal making machine

Compared to traditional manual charcoal production, the shisha charcoal press machine offers significant advantages:

  1. Stable output: Suitable for mass production and export.
  2. High product consistency: Controllable burning performance.
  3. Low labor costs: One person can operate multiple machines.
  4. Customizable size: Meets the needs of different markets.
