The charcoal has the properties of being black and therefore able to absorb solar heat, and when charcoal powder is spread on the ground it raises the surface temperature by an average of 7.4 to 7.6 degrees.

If charcoal is used on farmland as a material for melting snow in cold regions, increased yields can be expected. It can also be used for snow melting measures on golf course lawns and general household gardens.

Green Tanso No. 1 has 93% or more fixed carbon from high temperature carbonization (the same white coal as Ubamegashi charcoal) and has excellent heat absorption.

Sumi pack is a powdered charcoal of up to 0.05 mm. It can be used with atomizer nozzles of 0.1 mm or more.
