Binchotan White Charcoal Products
Hardwood binchotan from Indonesia in three size grades, laboratory tested at about 95 % fixed carbon and packed in 15 kg export cartons.
Sizes and packing
Every grade is the same product: white charcoal made from palawan, a dense hardwood from Kalimantan, fired in traditional kilns. What changes is the length of the stick, so you can match the charcoal to your grill.
| Grade | Length | Diameter | Shape | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Size S | 5–10 cm | 2.5–5 cm | Round | 15 kg carton |
| Size M | 10–20 cm | 2.5–5 cm | Round or split | 15 kg carton |
| Size L | 20–27 cm | 2.5–5 cm | Round or split | 15 kg carton |
Binchotan Size M (10–20 cm)
The all-round size for restaurant kitchens. It suits yakiniku, izakaya and general charcoal grills, and is easy to arrange in an even fire bed.
View size M details
Binchotan Size L (20–27 cm)
Long sticks for wide robata and konro grills and for long service hours, where fewer, larger pieces keep the fire steady with less refuelling.

How to choose a size
Start from the grill, not the charcoal. A shallow tabletop konro needs short pieces that sit below the grate; a wide robata or a long yakiniku trough is easier to run on longer sticks that hold a steady bed with fewer top-ups.
Round sticks keep their shape longest. Split pieces light a little more easily and pack flatter, which helps when you need an even, low fire bed.
