White Charcoal

For centuries, the Japanese have produced active, handcrafted charcoal commonly known as “White Charcoal”. This material has long been cherished for its unique ability to naturally purify materials by attracting, adsorbing and encapsulating harmful substances to its surface. As it is a solid form of carbon, it also balances the global CO2 challenge..

We believe that modern people are exposed to an increasing amount of toxins in our daily lives. Our tap-water is polluted by fertilisers, the air we breathe is polluted by petrol fumes and the beauty products we use often contain cheap chemicals that end up trapped in our body. Therefore, Sort of Coal have specialized in producing beautiful and functional White Charcoal products that naturally purifies air, water and body.

Sort of Coal

Sort of Coal is a pioneering Danish company with a particular passion for the extraordinary material. With White Charcoal as a central element in all of our design, we combine traditional Japanese craftsmanship with functional Danish design.

Our belief

We believe it is time to recognise this ancient knowledge by modernising and innovating the use of White Charcoal in contemporary Danish design. We wish to cherish the power, beauty and balance of nature and enable it to work its magic and enrich our modern lives.
