Frequently Asked Questions
What is the import duty on activated carbon in Malaysia?
Under the ASEAN-China Free Trade Agreement (ACFTA), activated carbon (HS Code 3802.10) qualifies for 0% import duty when shipped with a Form E Certificate of Origin. Without Form E, the MFN duty is 0% in Malaysia — so there is no duty regardless. We still provide Form E as part of standard documentation to ensure smooth customs clearance.
What activated carbon grade is used for palm oil refining in Malaysia?
Wood-based or coconut powdered activated carbon (PAC) at 200 mesh with iodine value ≥1000 mg/g is the standard for CPO decolorization. HALAL certification is required for buyers supplying food manufacturers. We can provide HALAL-compliant sourcing documentation. Typical dosing rate is 0.2–0.8% of oil weight depending on crude oil colour (DOBI value).
How long does shipping take from China to Malaysia?
Transit from Ningbo or Shanghai to Port Klang is 5–7 days by sea — one of the fastest routes we serve. This makes Malaysia ideal for smaller repeat orders and just-in-time purchasing. We can also arrange LCL for orders under one container.
Can you supply activated carbon for PETRONAS or petrochemical buyers?
Yes. KOH-impregnated 4mm pellet carbon for H₂S removal and coal GAC for amine guard beds and VOC control are standard grades for petrochemical applications. We provide full technical data sheets, MSDS, and COA. For PETRONAS vendor qualification, we can support with factory audit documentation.
What is the MOQ and lead time for Malaysia?
MOQ is 1 ton (LCL shipment). Standard FCL is one 20HQ container (~20 tons). Production lead time is 7–10 days; ocean transit is 5–7 days — total approx 15–18 days from order to Port Klang. We quote CIF Port Klang or FOB Ningbo.
Do you offer HALAL-certified activated carbon?
We supply from HALAL-certified production lines for food-grade powdered activated carbon. The HALAL certificate covers the production facility and process. We can provide HALAL documentation with the shipment for buyers requiring food-contact compliance.
