About this product
Namibia produces FSC-certified charcoal from encroacher bush, shipped through Walvis Bay.
Commtora sources hardwood charcoal from Otjozondjupa & north-central, Namibia, specified by fixed carbon, size and moisture, and prices every offer as a landed cost to your port — FOB origin, freight, import duty for your market where due, and fees — against independent references where they exist. Payment terms and documents are agreed per contract.
Grades & specifications
Fixed carbon, ash, moisture (≤ 5–8 %), size range, fines share, species; bag weight and palletisation.
How Commtora prices it
We compare against independent references for your market — such as customs import statistics where they exist — add freight, import duty for your market and fees to your port, and quote an origin offer per cubic metre on written terms.
Legality, EUDR and certification
Wood is in scope of the EU Deforestation Regulation for EU imports (from 30 December 2026 for large and medium operators, 30 June 2027 for micro and small), and legality rules apply in other markets too, such as the US Lacey Act. Every lot needs harvest-legality documents and, for the EU, plot geolocation; FSC or PEFC certification and FLEGT licences (Indonesia, Ghana) are specified per contract. We do not trade timber from Myanmar, Russia or Belarus.
