Product information "White Elephant Cameroon 5"
Our two new White Elephant series are made from Central American ash. The wood is extremely light and has an exciting structure that immediately captivated us.
But the real highlight is the graphite insert developed by Kopp Pipes, produced in Germany. This insert is made of 100% pressed carbon and meets the strict regulations of the American health authority FDA. The list of positive properties is long: the material is fire-resistant and cannot burn through, heats up slowly and cools down slowly, almost no moisture forms, it is taste-neutral and extremely easy to clean. The formation of a carbon crust is not only impossible but also obsolete. You can thus change your mixtures repeatedly.
A must in every collection.

1945 to 1984 Robert Maderholz produced briar pipes. His son Michael developed the first automatons for filter production in 1984. Up to now White Elephant is the only filter with highly absorbent Meerschaum granulate worldwide. Meerschaum is a magnesium silicate from the mineral group of the sepiolites, the porose structure is able to absorb large amounts of moisture like a sponge.
The Meerschaum used to be imported from Tansania (now only Meerschaum of the highest quality from Eskisehir, Turkey is used), so the name ‘White Elephant’ was found very fast.
Later active charcoal filters were added to the portfolio and 1999 the production of pipe cleaners started.
Having no heirs, Michael Maderholz sold the company to Kopp Filters.
After 35 years White Elephant presents itself in a new design. But everything else stays the same. The production facility is still in Ettenstatt, Bavaria and our highest premises are top quality and fair prices. And now in an environmental friendly packaging.
What does Superflow mean?
Less is more. Other producers of charcoal filters surpass each other with higher absorption rates, forgetting one very important factor: tensile strength also increases, leading to an unpleasant smoking experience.
