We provide the working design, drawings, technology and support at every stage. You build with your own team and locally available materials. The result is a system you understand and can maintain independently.
We work with offcuts, slabs, lump wood and Pini-Kay briquettes.
We hand over more than blueprints — we hand over an understanding of how the complex is built and how it works. Your team gains the knowledge to operate, maintain, upgrade and grow the production further.
You don't get dependency on a supplier — you get your own expertise.

"My task is to help your team build and launch a reliable production facility."
Sergey Kovtun's first kiln for lump wood, slabs and offcuts. Basket loading, a separate cooling container and simple automation.

A complex with enclosed trolleys. The installation's history and a later design adapted for winch-operated loading.

Two independent kilns were combined into a complex with a shared heat generator and automation for carbonizing fuel briquettes.

The complex was installed in an existing building, allowing for its dimensions, retort lifting height and access aisles. Flues were routed through the wall.
View project →Over years of practical work, Royal Carbon has developed and tested different charcoal-system concepts. For local construction, we offer a modular solution combining structural simplicity, reliable daily operation and step-by-step expansion. The system is adapted to your feedstock, required capacity, site and budget, and can be built by a local team using available materials.
