Introduction

Carrom may look like a simple board game—but every experienced player knows that smoothness of the board decides how well you play.
Even if your striker control is good, the coins will not move properly if the board is sticky or rough.

That’s where Carrom Powder comes in.

Carrom powder reduces friction on the board, helping the striker glide effortlessly, improving accuracy, shot speed, and overall gameplay flow. Koxtons Carrom board Powder is crafted to offer a consistent, smooth playing experience, whether you're practicing at home or competing in serious matches.

What Does Carrom Powder Actually Do?

Carrom powder works on a very simple principle — it reduces friction between the striker and the board.

When the board surface is rough:

  • The striker slows down
  • Shots become unpredictable
  • Placement and angles become difficult

With Koxtons Carrom Powder:

  • Striker moves freely
  • Aim becomes easier
  • Rebound and cut shots become smoother

Smooth Board = Smooth Game.

Why Normal Talcum Powder Doesn’t Work

Many people make the mistake of using talcum powder instead of proper carrom powder.

Problem with Talc:

  • It clumps over time
  • Blocks striker movement
  • Leaves sticky residue
  • Damages board finish

Koxtons Carrom Powder uses micro-fine, uniform granules designed specifically for friction-free gameplay. Result?

  • No sticking
  • No clumping
  • No board damage
