The different areas of application of activated charcoal filters
Activated charcoal filters have been used as air purifiers or odor filters for a long time. Carbon filters are installed in the extractor hood, for example, to counteract excessive odors in the kitchen. They are also used in air conditioning systems or cat litter boxes and neutralize unpleasant odours.
Activated carbon filters have also proven their worth many times over in reducing pollutants from cigarette smoke.
The properties of activated carbon
Activated carbon is known for its cleaning effect, it filters toxins and is therefore used for cleaning liquids and gases, among other things. In the medical field, many people are probably familiar with charcoal tablets as a remedy for gastrointestinal diseases.
Pipe smokers have been using activated carbon filters for many years, as these filters were originally developed for use in the pipe stem. They are now available in many different sizes, so that they are also suitable for roll-ups.
Why use activated carbon filters?
The consumption of tobacco products is harmful to health in the long term - that is no longer a secret. If you still like to smoke and want to continue with pleasure and a clear conscience, activated carbon filters can be a useful companion:
- Because of the reduced pollution of the respiratory tracts
- Because every puff tastes pleasantly cool and dry
In addition, activated charcoal filters reduce the clogging of the pipe or the discharge of condensed liquid and thus increase the quality of the taste when smoking on many levels.

Ceramic caps on the activated charcoal filters
For a long time, the activated carbon filter had a plastic cap on one end and a heat-resistant ceramic cap on the other end. When inserting it into the pipe or rolling-up, you always had to make sure that the ceramic cap was pointing to the "warm side" and the plastic cap was pointing to the mouthpiece.
Most manufacturers have already changed this and there are now heat-resistant ceramic caps on both sides of the activated carbon filter. It is no longer necessary to pay attention to the correct direction when rolling-up, because both sides work equally. In addition, a little less plastic waste for the environment.
