### Buying Activated Carbon in Bulk

What you can check before you commit to a container

#### 1. Check the price

Open any grade above: its product page shows an indicative FOB Colombo price range per metric ton. A firm price comes with your quote.

#### 2. Work out the delivered cost

Our [landed cost calculator](/freight-calculator/) adds freight, insurance, duty and tax for your country.

#### 3. Test the grade

Ask for a sample and an independent [iodine number test](/product/activated-carbon-iodine-number-test/), reported to you by the lab. See [Testing and COA](/testing-and-coa/).

#### 4. Order with protection

A deposit, inspection before the producer is paid, then the balance against the shipping documents. Or use a letter of credit through your own bank.

[Request a Bulk Quote](/post-a-requirement/)

Tell us the grade (GAC, PAC, pellet or gold recovery), iodine number, mesh size, quantity and destination port.

### Why Source Activated Carbon from Sri Lanka

Coconut shell is the premium raw material for activated carbon: it is hard, dense, and naturally microporous, producing carbon with high adsorption capacity, excellent hardness, and low dust: ideal for water, vapour-phase, and high-purity applications. Sri Lanka’s coconut triangle, combined with decades of manufacturing expertise, has made the country the world’s leading exporter of coconut-shell activated carbon, home to the global market-leading producer.

Sri Lankan manufacturers supply municipal and industrial water utilities, gold mines, food and beverage processors, air-purification OEMs, and pharmaceutical buyers across more than 50 countries, with consistent, batch-tested quality and the documentation that regulated end-uses require.

#### Forms & Grades

- Granular (GAC): mesh-graded for water treatment, gold recovery, and air filtration

- Powdered (PAC): for taste & odor control, decolourisation, and batch dosing

- Pelletised / extruded: for vapour-phase, solvent recovery, and gas-mask applications

- Washed & impregnated: acid-washed, food-grade, and impregnated grades for specialized duties

#### Where It Is Used

- Water treatment: municipal drinking water, wastewater, point-of-use filters, dechlorination

- Gold recovery: CIP / CIL / CIC carbon for the mining industry

- Air & gas: odor control, solvent recovery, respirators and gas masks, automotive evaporative canisters

- Food, beverage & pharma: decolourisation, purification, and food-grade filtration

#### Key Specifications

- Iodine number (typically 600–1200 mg/g), CTC activity, hardness, mesh / particle size

- Ash, moisture, apparent density, pH, reported on the Certificate of Analysis per batch

- Third-party verification (SGS / Intertek) and pre-shipment samples on request

#### Renewable & Traceable

Coconut-shell carbon is made from an agricultural by-product, a renewable feedstock, not a mined one. Sri Lankan producers offer batch-level traceability and food-grade and drinking-water certifications for regulated end-uses.

Finished granular activated carbon. Coconut-shell carbon is hard, low-dust and highly microporous.

### Importing Activated Carbon: What Buyers Should Know

Specification, certification, and logistics for activated-carbon importers

#### Specify by Duty

The right grade depends on the job: iodine number and mesh for water; CTC and hardness for vapour-phase; food-grade certification for F&B. Share your application and target spec and suppliers will match the correct grade and activation.

#### Certifications

For drinking water, look for NSF/ANSI 61 and AWWA B604 conformance; for food and pharma, food-grade and relevant pharmacopoeia compliance. Request the Certificate of Analysis, and REACH documentation where the EU market applies.

#### Packing & Logistics

Shipped in 25 kg sacks, big bags, or fibre drums, palletised and containerised ex Colombo. Request a pre-shipment sample and independent assay for first orders. FOB Colombo and CIF terms are both standard.
