Cigarette filters & filter tips: Are you rolling with the best?

Filter or tip? This question often decides the top or flop of rolling your own cigarettes. Whether you want to refine the classic flavour of pure tobacco in your roll-your-own or give the perfect joint or blunt the finishing touches and the necessary stability - you've come to the right place. We untangle the jungle of Cigarette filters for rolling and the essential Filter tips made of cardboard, glass or wood for you. Forget compromises: Discover the differences and find exactly the product that will take your ritual to the next level and ensure unadulterated enjoyment.

Twist-in cigarette filters: your key to refined tobacco enjoyment with your own brand

Do you roll your own cigarettes and what counts for you is the pure tobacco flavour - but refined and without annoying side effects? While filter tips primarily ensure stability in the joint, classic roll-in cigarette filters specialise in actively improving your smoking experience when rolling your own cigarettes. They are your key to a clean, noticeably milder puff and the authentic feeling of a perfectly filtered cigarette, made to your own taste.

More than just paper: what roll-in filters do & what they are made of

Imagine: pure tobacco flavour, but smoother and without annoying crumbs in your mouth. This is exactly what roll-in cigarette filters make possible. These small cylinders are typically made of cellulose fibres - obtained from wood, a natural raw material. Cotton is also used less frequently. Twisted in with your favourite tobacco, they work like a fine sieve that absorbs some of the tar particles and condensates produced during combustion. The result? A significantly milder, less scratchy smoke sensation. At the same time, they form an effective barrier against tobacco crumbs. This keeps the enjoyment clean and undisturbed from the first to the last puff.

Customised: The right size & length for your needs

Your perfect roll-your-own needs the right filter. Fortunately, cigarette filters are not just available in one size, but can be customised to your preferences:

• Regular filters (approx. 8 mm ⌀): The tried and tested standard for a classically sized cigarette.
• Offers a balanced ratio of filtration and draw resistance.
• Slim filter (approx. 6 mm ⌀): The elegant choice for narrower roll-ups. Ideal if you use less tobacco or simply prefer a more discreet look.
  The bestsellers here are, for example, the GIZEH Slim Filter 6mm
• The draw is often perceived as somewhat firmer.
• Extra Slim Filter (approx. 5-5.5 mm ⌀): For the finest of the self-turned. Maximum discretion and minimum tobacco consumption.

But it's not just the diameter that counts! The length of the filter also influences the handling and feel:

• Standard length (approx. 15 mm): The all-rounder, fits most rollers.
• Longer filters (e.g. Gizeh XL Slim Filter 6mm with 19 mm): Offer more gripping surface when twisting in, which is particularly convenient for beginners. Some also appreciate the additional filter section or the greater distance to the embers.

A matter of trust: You can rely on these brands for cigarette filters

Don't want to compromise on the filter? Good decision! Because quality has a direct impact on your smoking experience. We stock exactly the brands that have proven themselves over the years:

• OCB Filters: The global top dog. OCB stands for a huge range of formats, from regular to extra slim, often in clever dispenser boxes or resealable pouches. Consistently good quality that millions rely on.
• Gizeh filters: German engineering for your paper. Gizeh is famous for precision and innovation, such as the popular XL filters or special variants (e.g. with hemp). A top choice for the quality-conscious.
• Zig Zag filters: Often part of the OCB family, Zig Zag delivers reliable standard filters at an attractive price-performance ratio. A solid choice for everyday use.

Whether you are looking for ultra-thin slim filters or prefer the classic regular filter - these brands provide you with the basis for a successful roll-your-own.

Filter Tips: The stable foundation for masterful joints & blunts

Watch out, joint architects and blunt builders! Now it's all about the indispensable filter tips. They may seem inconspicuous, but they are the crucial component that gives your work of art form, function and a clean finish.

More than just cardboard: Why a good tip makes all the difference

Do you recognise this? You've almost finished rolling your joint, but the end is getting flabby, herbs are falling out or you pull half the filling into your mouth on the first hit? This is exactly where Filter Tips (also affectionately known as 'Tonnis') come into play. Their mission is clearly defined and has nothing to do with filtering harmful substances:

• Crumb-free zone: they are the bodyguard for your mouth and reliably hold back loose herb or tobacco residue.
• Stability anchor: A well-rolled tip forms the backbone of your joint or blunt. It defines the shape, makes rolling much easier and prevents your work from buckling under pressure.
• Coolness factor (literally): The tip creates the necessary safety distance between the embers and your lips. This protects you from burns and lets you relax and enjoy to the end.

From cardboard to glass, from perforated to conical: the colourful world of tips

Boredom in the tip tray? Not with us! The selection of filter tips is huge and offers the right thing for every preference and technique:

It's all about the material:

• Cardboard/paper: The classic. Flexible, inexpensive and available in every conceivable thickness and colour. Available as practical tip booklets to tear off and design yourself.
• Pay attention to the differences: bleached vs. unbleached (as with RAW) is often a question of philosophy.
• Glass tips: The premier class for purists. Absolutely neutral in flavour, cool the smoke slightly and are virtually eternally reusable (simply clean!). Often with clever indentations ('pinches') that serve as crumb catchers.
  A glass tip is a statement of taste and sustainability.
• Wood tips: The natural, reusable alternative to glass. Offer a warm feel and are also durable.

The shape decides:

• Tip booklets/blocks (standard): Your free licence for individual folding techniques (spiral, W, M...).
• Perforated tips: Ingeniously simple! A predetermined crease line makes it easier to fold a stable inner life ('spring'). Perfect for beginners or consistent results.

  

• Unperforated tips: For the purists and folding professionals who want full control without any specifications.

  

• Conical tips: Slightly wedge-shaped - the logical choice for those who like to roll their joints conically (like a cone). They make rolling Cones a breeze.

  

• Pre-rolled tips: Maximum convenience. Simply remove from the pack, place in the paper, done. Guarantees the same shape every time and saves valuable time.

  

Brands that set standards: RAW, OCB, Gizeh and the specialists

The brand of your tip says something about you! Here are the heavyweights and insider tips in the tip universe:

• RAW Tips: The epitome of the scene. RAW lives the natural philosophy with unbleached papers and tips. Their selection is legendary: from standard to perforated, pre-rolled, wide tips and special master tips.
• OCB tips: The reliable all-rounder. OCB also supplies consistently high quality tips and covers all common formats - often the safe bet if you don't want to experiment.
• Gizeh tips: Precision from Germany. Gizeh offers sophisticated solutions such as perforated or conical tips with the usual clean finish.
• Elements Tips: Known for wafer-thin rice papers, Elements tips also impress with their quality, often with perforation for easy handling.
• Smoking tips: Another firm favourite with a huge range of designs and formats, including coloured or extra-wide tips for individual styles.

Whether you prefer the pure nature of RAW, appreciate the variety of OCB or are looking for special conical tips - you'll find them here.

Activated charcoal filters: the bridge between filtration and stability

Do you want the stability of a tip, but also want to benefit from additional filter performance? Then take a look at activated Carbon Filters. These clever filters combine a stable mouthpiece with a filling of activated carbon granulate. The porous structure of the charcoal can bind certain unwanted substances from the smoke, which many users find to have a much milder and more pleasant flavour. They are thicker than normal tips and ideal for joints or small pipes.

Curious? Activated charcoal filters are a world of their own. You can find all the details and variants in our special category:
