Takesumi charcoal is remarkably porous able to absorb and retain 3 times more pollutants from the air and water than a classic activated carbon. Its absorption surface area is 3000m2/gram. It is also an excellent odour and moisture absorber. Being naturally charged with negative ions it attracts toxic particles to itself and mineralises running water thanks to its content of silica, acid, calcium and potassium.

It is very porous and has the particularity of adsorbing and retaining 3 times more pollutants from the air and water than a classic activated carbon. Its adsorption surface area is 3000m2/gram. It is also an excellent odour and moisture absorber. It is naturally charged with negative ions and attracts toxic particles to itself. It mineralises water thanks to its content of silicic acid, calcium and potassium.

Zero Plastic, Zero Waste, Less Chlorine, Less pollutants, More minerals
Takesumi still produced in a clay oven, according to ancestral know-how, the tiger bamboo wood is burnt for 3 days at 800° to 1000°.

Directions for use:

Step 1. Activate/clean the takesumi stick by boiling it for 5 to 10min (never use any cleaner or soap).
Step 2. Dry it in the sun or in a warm, dry place.
Step 3. Place 1 stick of takesumi in a carafe, pour between 0.75 and 1 litre of running water.
Step 4. Leave to act for (5h to 12 h to mineralise the water, adsorb chlorine and pollutants, etc.).
Step 5. Drink up!
Final Step. After 3 months, reactivate the coal by boiling it for 5 to 10 minutes.

 

The takesumi stick can be used for 6 months (2 times 3 months).
You can recycle it as a plant fertilizer or natural deodorant in cupboards, fridge or shoes...

The takesumi is very light and floats for the first few days of use. After a few days, it will go down and no longer float. The floating does not alter its properties in any way.

The best choice for this brand

How effective are these pieces of charcoal? Is bamboo as good as oak? Is the cost justified? And compared to cartridge filter jugs?

I had all these questions in mind, and I think I can answer.

A short description to start with: 15 bamboo charcoals sticks, in the form of sticks about 1 cm wide by 17 cm high. They are supplied in a cardboard box, and protected in a plastic wrapping (funny idea I just say), probably because the charcoal is quite fragile and breakable.

It is bamboo, not oak. In my opinion it is an excellent choice, because oak changes NOTHING to the efficiency of activated carbon, it grows much more slowly and requires much more resources than bamboo which is extremely fast growing.

The green aspect !

We try charcoal because tap water does not taste very good, so we don't need to buy a lot of water bottles. Takesumi LTD sales great products !

Best for health and the environment

Purchase in addition to the ceramic beads for water treatment, pure difference! Water is good! Avoid plastic water bottles to excess. It's good for the environment and for your wallet. Takesumi LTD donate to plant trees. I love it!

Keep its promises

I live in an area where the water, rather calcareous, has a particular taste, and when I put the coal in my decanter, I totally feel the difference between fresh tap water and water in the decanter.
Don't be surprised, the charcoal will float in the bottle for two or three days before sinking to the bottom.

Pure water at a cheaper cost

These bamboo charcoal sticks are perfect for removing the chlorine smell from tap water. I don't buy a bottle of mineral water anymore!

Description: 

Bamboo charcoal, called black diamond, is one of the rare ingredients with a very broad spectrum of use.

Very porous, it has the particularity of adsorbing and retaining 3 times more air and water pollutants than a conventional activated carbon. Its adsorption surface area is 3000 m2 per gram, which gives it its incredible detoxifying virtues. Also, takesumi is naturally rich in minerals: silicic acid, potassium, calcium. Its negative ion charge naturally attracts toxic particles to it.

Specifications:

Bamboo activated carbon, 100% natural, comes from Japan. Of extreme quality and fineness (5 to 10 microns), takesumi powder is non-abrasive, odourless and tasteless.

Its benefits and uses are multiple: culinary, beauty, health, detox, habitat...

Healthy and ecological

I am used to using a Brita coffee maker, but the cartridges are particularly expensive.
I wanted to test the activated carbon for a long time. These bamboos are just right.
Each unit should be boiled in water for 10 minutes before being immersed in the water to be purified.
The bamboo can be used for 1 month, as long as it is boiled once again halfway through.
After one hour, the first effects are present and completely effective after 4 hours.
My son loves the taste of this filtered water.

I am also won over, the waste is much less than with Brita (plastic refills) and is recyclable.
It's great.
