Our Products

Eco- and Community-Friendly Charcoal Briquettes

Our core products are based on charcoal from carbon-ised coconut shells – for generations locally grown, harvested and manufactured in a highly sustainable manner, without posing any harm to palm trees, animal habitat or the environment.

We produce two types of charcoal: granulated charcoal and briquettes. We have a highly efficient and sustainable production, using premium raw materials and we are continuously (daily) testing our products to ensure consistent quality, throughout all the production processes to get a final high-quality product.

All our carbonised coconut products are based on our 6-point sustainability plan (CSR) which outlines our approach to both environment and community. Our key words are ‘Low Carbon Foot Print’, ‘High Quality Carbonisation’, ‘Fair Pricing’ and ‘Employee Welfare’.

Not only do we as Scandinavians feel a natural obliga-tion to both the environment and communities from which we make our living, but also strive for win-win situations and sustainable, long-term business. By en-suring both an eco- and community friendly approach to charcoal production, we have vastly increased our product quality.

Conscientious Carbonisation

By a transfer of both know-how and technology to the local community, Cavron has been instrumental in improving the first steps in the production of coco-nuts providing for both a much cleaner, less polluting carbonisation process, as well as a basic charcoal of the highest possible quality (pore-structure).

Eco-Friendliness Ingrained in the Production

Coconut shells are a waste product from coconut production for the food industry. By utilizing this waste product, we participate in vastly reducing the felling of trees by using coconut shells, as they are a high-end alternative to normal wood and fossilised coal. Furthermore, the actual burning of coconuts is much less hazardous to the environment.

Streamlined Production

A tested combination of European know-how and a multi-generational local knowledge of coconut farming have proven invaluable in establishing a production process resulting in a consistent, ul-tra-high product quality – all the way from coconut to grill. This proven process which includes continuous testing and tweaking (screening, sorting and washing) is a guarantee of eco-friendly coconut briquettes with superior functional benefits.

ECO-Friendliness is Ingrained in Our High-quality Product

“Conscientious carboni-sation means a focus on both environment, community and product quality...”An Adam Retort carboniasation kiln results in highly

reduced pollution and a charcoal of superior quality. This is considered not only the most eco-friendly but also the best type of carbonisation as it allows for a superior degree of control over charcoal content.

100% Natural with No Chemical Additives

Not only is this good news for the environment itself, it also results in substantial health- and taste-benefits. First of all, it means that the cooking is clean – no harmful ingredients in the charcoal can be transmit-ted to the food as there aren’t any. Secondly, the taste of the grilled food is as natural as can be and not jeopardized in any way by our charcoal – on the con-trary it enhances the natural flavours of barbecuing.

CO2 Neutral

Our charcoal is a CO2 neutral product, as it is consid-erably below threshold values set by international standards in terms of low carbon footprint. In other words, grilling with our briquettes means that the so-called carbon footprint is at an absolute minimum and not contributing to pollution or global warming.

Long, Clean Burning

Our advanced production method gives us full knowledge and control of the finished briquettes. We can precisely tweak parameters such as size, density, moisture levels and distribution of the all-natural ingredients. This results in a long burning time which is both economical and convenient as no refuelling is needed during cooking. The second benefit is ultra clean burning with a minimum of smoke and ash residues.

From the beginning and planting, Cavron is involved to ensure a Danish standard, eco-friendly process.

All-Natural Coconut Briquettes with No Chemicals

“With Cavron coconut charcoal briquettes you know what you are grilling with...”

Charcoal Briquettes

Our BBQ briquettes are based on our high-quality carbon granulate from carbonised coconut shells and offer a superior green alternative to regular wood charcoal and fossilised coal. The use of our briquettes is primarily as a fuel source for barbecuing.

All-Natural – No Chemicals

Cavron’s coconut charcoal briquettes are of an extremely high quality and are 100% natural. We do not use any artificial chemicals in our products. The granulated charcoal is mixed with our all-natural tapio-ca starch to bind the charcoal briquettes - a 100% food grade product made from the plant Manihot Esculenta.

Better Environment – Better Taste

Not only is this good news for the environment, but it also ensures flame-, smoke- and odourless burning. The result is healthier, deliciously roasted and much better tasting food. Our briquettes are not only eco-friendly, they are taste bud friendly and help preserve the natural health benefits and flavours of the food.

Long and Consistent Burning

Our briquettes are high-density (compacted) with no chemicals. This gives a longer and more consistent burning time than traditional charcoal based on wood. Consistent heat makes cooking more manage-able and the food is grilled evenly – as well as being economical as you don’t have to replenish the BBQ with new coal during cooking.

Smoke- and Odourless

Furthermore, the burning is clean and leaves a minimum of ash residue (which by the way can be used as garden fertilizer) and this makes cleaning up a lot easier.

Competitive Advantages

• 100% all-natural BBQ briquettes

• No chemicals for healthier cooking and better taste

• Long burning time and consistent high heat

• Smokeless and odourless without unpleasant fumes or smells

• Clean burning without sparks and minimum ash residue – easier clean ups

In other words, with Cavron coconut charcoal briquettes you will know what you are grilling with – we guarantee that our charcoal is clean without any unhealthy, badly tasting chemicals.

Our Testing Procedures

To Guarantee the Highest Possible Quality, Safety and Burning Duration, We Perform Three Types of Tests for Our Products:

First Test (daily)

The first is screening and analysis of smoke, fixed carbon, moisture, volatile matters and ash residues for each carbon granulate. This happens continuously during production. The raw material is subsequently sorted and dried into different levels according to the specifications of each briquette quality.

Our test equipment is regularly calibrated and tested by international independent laboratories such as SGS Laboratory and Sucofindo to ensure that the result is following standards as defined by European Standard EN-1860-2.

Second Test (daily)

The second is called T-180 test and it is based on parameters by the Danish FORCE Technology. It is a burning and heat test (including spontaneous ignition) that has been devised to determine for how long the charcoal holds a constant temperature of +180° C, which is the optimal temperature for continuous cooking on the grill.

These tests are performed continuously up to 6 times per batch. As each test takes several hours, we have more than one test equipment running simultaneous-ly.

Third Test (twice per year)

The third test is a ‘Self Heating’ test and that is made by independent test laboratories to ensure the product cannot self-ignite, either during the shipping process, in retail warehouses, shops or at the homes of end consumers. This test needs to be renewed every 6 months.

Three Ongoing Tests to Ensure the Highest Quality

The tests are performed both on granulate and briquette levels. Random samples are continuously tested as part of our substantial QC-regiment.

“Testing and ongoing quality control is one of the secrets behind the superior quality - all the time...”

Our Briquettes are Nev-er Standard: Because We Know Exactly What We are Doing...

We don’t just deliver a standard product. We deliver arguably the best coconut briquettes ever manufac-tured in the world today with no chemicals, high-den-sity, long burn time, and lowest smoke/ash residues.

The secret behind manufacturing charcoal of the highest quality is our knowledge and experience in the composition of different briquettes with different properties. In other words, we have what it takes to make the best briquettes from a raw-material that is in itself outstanding. Coconut shells have so many natural qualities that are vastly superior to virtually any other BBQ fuel.

Who We Are

Committed to Superior Product Quality and Ethics

Cavron Global, part of the Danish Longhi Group and with global shareholders, is a well-established coconut charcoal granulate and briquette manufac-turer with production in Manado, North Sulawesi, Indonesia. We are committed to and known for producing and supplying coconut charcoal products of the highest quality to our customers worldwide.

Caring for Environment, Society and Employees…

As one of the largest employers in the region with more than 200 employees we take our CSR commit-ment very seriously. Maintaining a good working relationship, with the local community in general and the coconut farmers who supply our raw material specifically, is of the utmost importance to us. Cavron has, for example, installed modern carbonisation kilns for the local farmers, enabling them to create charcoal of a much higher quality as well as reducing pollution. At the same time, this results in higher quality carbonised coconut shells than conventional carbonisation, enabling us to pay a significantly higher price – a win-win situation for both the local commu-nity and Cavron.

Cavron employees enjoy European-standard employ-ment, workspace conditions, facilities and benefits.

A Streamlined Production

Our BSCI-certified production plant in Manado is well developed and managed by a European team working directly together with our local employees toward our high and eco-friendly production standard. It is streamlined throughout the entire manufacturing process from carbonisation (done by local farmers under our consultation) to packaging and shipping. Also, continuous testing of the charcoal ensures a consistent and uniformly high quality. Our products are CO₂ neutral and 100% natural without any chemi-cals or other additives.
