Home/About Company
PT Mega Karbon Nusantara
An activated carbon manufacturer in Bogor, West Java — focused on measurable quality, custom iodine grades, and long-term partnerships.
What We Do
Carbon for clean water and metal capture
We produce granular activated carbon — charcoal processed until it develops an extremely large internal pore surface. That surface is what does the work: adsorbing colour, odour and dissolved organics in water treatment, and capturing metals in industrial process streams.
Grades are made to order across three iodine ranges and three mesh fractions. We supply small trial quantities and bulk contracts alike — a deliberate choice, because a buyer who starts with 100 kg often returns for tonnes.
What we will not do is ask you to take performance on trust. Every grade we sell is tied to an independent laboratory report, and those reports are published in full further down this page.
Top to bottom: mesh 4x8, 6x12 and 8x30 — the three fractions we screen to

Our Facility
Milling, screening, soaking, thermal activation, in-house testing and packing all happen on one site in Tanjungsari, Bogor. Keeping the whole chain in one place is what lets us hold a grade steady from batch to batch — and change it when a customer needs a different iodine number.
