Chardust Ltd.

Sustaining business, creating jobs, protecting the environment

 
 

Chardust Ltd. is an alternative energy company headquartered in Nairobi, Kenya.  We've developed innovative techniques to convert biomass wastes into low-cost charcoal briquettes.  We sell over 200 tonnes per month into institutional and domestic markets, displacing an equivalent amount of unsustainably harvested lumpwood charcoal.  At the same time as providing a cheaper energy alternative, this contributes to job creation, waste recycling and environmental conservation.


We also manufacture water heaters that use our briquettes, enabling savings of over 70% to be made compared with water heated with electricity.
