Eighty years.
One product.

Most charcoal offered online comes from a trading desk. KINGBE is the factory — and that changes your price, your batch consistency and your supply security.

Four generations of the same family, in Satun

The kilns, the press, the sorting line and the loading bay are ours. There is no broker between you and the machine — the people in this photograph are on our payroll. That is why the batch you approve is the batch you receive, and why the price you pay is not somebody else’s margin.

Why buyers stay

Six reasons this desk is different.

None of these are claims a trader can make. They follow from owning the production line.

03 · Third-party proof

Numbers,
not adjectives.

Ask a supplier for a laboratory report and you are usually handed figures for raw carbonised shell, which always reads higher than the briquette pressed from it. These are the finished Model 1000 briquette, measured by a university laboratory, and we do not lend them to any other line.

Two jobs. One factory.

Model 100 reclaimed rubberwood is the cost engine for high-volume and back-of-house grilling. The coconut-shell lines are the quality engine for the grills your guests actually see. Prices are EXW Bangkok, per tonne, in 10 kg cartons — published, not gated.

Five steps. No mystery.

Tell us the product, the destination port and a rough monthly volume. Everything else follows from those three lines.

Buyer questionStraight answer
What is the minimum order? One 20-foot container. Charcoal is bulky and IMDG headspace rules cap the load, so a 20FT holds roughly 8–9 tonnes and a 40HQ roughly 16–17 tonnes. Models can be combined in one box.
Which Incoterms do you ship on? Published prices are EXW Bangkok. FOB, CFR and CIF are quoted once you name the port. Because charcoal is dangerous goods, most first-time buyers take CIF so we handle the documentation end to end.
Is charcoal difficult to ship by sea? It is a regulated dangerous good, UN 1361 Class 4.2 PG III. We classify, pack and document it in-house and load full containers with a carrier that accepts the class.
Do you provide samples? Yes, free. You pay the courier only, so your kitchen can test burn, ash and consistency before a container order.
Can you produce under our brand? Yes. OEM and private label with one-colour bag and carton printing. You supply the artwork; design and plate fees apply, with discounts by agreement.
What are your payment terms? T/T, 60% deposit and 40% before shipment. Lead time is confirmed with your quote.
