Activated Carbon.
Sherwin Industries manufactures coconut shell based activated carbon for a wide range of purification, filtration and recovery applications. Produced from renewable coconut shell resources, our products are developed to meet the varying requirements of industrial and commercial applications.
We offer Granular Activated Carbon (GAC), Powdered Activated Carbon (PAC), acid-washed grades and specialty customized grades. Depending on the application, product requirements can be specified based on parameters such as iodine value, CTC activity, particle size, hardness, ash content, moisture and apparent density.
Our focus is on consistent product characteristics, dependable supply and customer-specific solutions for water treatment, gold recovery, air and gas purification, food and beverage processing, and other industrial applications.
