The Rising Demand for Hydraulic Shisha Charcoal Machines in Tunisia
The global demand for Шиша (hookah) уголь has been steadily increasing, with Tunisia emerging as a key market for high-quality, evenly burning briquettes. As traditional charcoal production methods struggle to meet efficiency and consistency standards, hydraulic briquette machines have become the preferred solution for manufacturers seeking high-pressure, dense, and long-lasting shisha coal.
ВWeiwa Machinery, we recently hosted a Tunisian client at our factory to test our hydraulic shisha charcoal machine, demonstrating its capabilities in producing premium hookah briquettes.
Why Hydraulic Briquette Machines Are Ideal for Shisha Charcoal Production？
The Science Behind Hydraulic Pressing for Shisha Coal
Unlike traditional screw or mechanical briquette presses, hydraulic machines use high-pressure compression to form charcoal dust into dense, uniform briquettes without the need for binders. This is crucial for shisha charcoal, which must:
- Burn evenly for 45–60 minutes
- Produce minimal ash
- Maintain a consistent temperature for a smooth smoking experience
Нашhydraulic shisha charcoal machine applies adjustable pressure settings, ensuring the perfect density for hookah coal while minimizing breakage during handling.
Key Advantages Observed During the Tunisian Client’s Trial
During the on-site testing in our factory, our Tunisian client witnessed:
✔ Higher Briquette Density – Leading to longer burn time compared to traditional charcoal.
✔ Reduced Waste – The hydraulic press ensures minimal material loss during shaping.
✔ Customizable Shapes & Sizes – The machine can produce oval, куб, or round briquettes based on market preferences.
✔ Energy Efficiency – Unlike heat-based briquetting, hydraulic machines require no drying or additional fuel.
These results reinforced why hydraulic shisha charcoal machines are becoming the standard in North Africa and the Middle East.
Our Tunisian Client’s On-Site Trial
Why Factory Testing Matters for Hydraulic Shisha Charcoal Machines
Before investing in a hydraulic briquette machine, manufacturers—especially in emerging markets like Tunisia—need proof of performance. That’s why we invited our Tunisian client to our factory for an exclusive hands-on trial of our hydraulic shisha charcoal machine. This real-world test allowed them to:
- Observe the machine’s pressure settingsВ действии.
- Evaluate briquette density and durability.
- Compare raw material inputs vs. output efficiency.
- Assess ease of operation and maintenance.
The trial wasn’t just a demo—it was a collaborative process where our engineers worked closely with the client to fine-tune settings for their specific shisha charcoal requirements.

This trial was a turning point, convincing the client to proceed with an order tailored to their production scale.
Why Hydraulic Shisha Charcoal Machines Are in High Demand？
Growing Hookah Culture in Tunisia
Tunisia has a thriving hookah (Шиша) culture, with cafes and homes frequently using charcoal for smoking. Однако, imported charcoal is often expensive, creating opportunities for local manufacturers to produce high-quality, affordable shisha briquettes.
Our Tunisian client recognized that investing in a hydraulic charcoal briquette machine would allow them to:
- Reduce reliance on imported coal
- Control production quality
- Meet rising domestic demand
Competitive Advantage with Hydraulic Briquettes
By switching to hydraulically pressed shisha charcoal, Tunisian producers can:
Offer longer-lasting briquettes (compared to quick-burning wood charcoal).
Export to neighboring markets (Libya, Algeria, Egypt) where demand is growing.
Differentiate their brand with premium, uniformly shaped coal.
