Although Forestry Firewood Ltd. does not currently sell eco-firelighters, we are always interested in innovative products that are better for the environment.

Just as our firewood is sourced solely from sustainably managed forests, many eco-lighter manufacturers do the same.

For example, on the packaging, look for the FSC logo, as this will tell you that the wood has been sourced from a sustainably managed forest.

This is really important because it’s a natural product, unlike purchasing firelighters, which are covered in chemicals.
Softwood and natural vegetable waxes

Most eco-firelighters are made using softwood and natural vegetable wax, which makes them 100% biodegradable. Therefore, they are better for the environment than buying chemical firelighters.

 

Better ignition

If you want a winning combination, we highly recommend choosing our high-performance kiln-dried firewood and using it in combination with a good-quality eco-friendly firelighter.

 

What are eco-friendly firelighters made from?

Often, eco-friendly firelighters are made from waste wood and vegetable wax.

However, you do need to check the packaging to ensure they are made from the right ingredients.

To ensure that the eco-friendly firelighters are sourced from sustainably managed forests.

 

Lower emissions

Many homeowners who own a wood-burning stove sometimes comment that they do not like the smell of some firelighters when they are trying to ignite the fire.

This is sometimes due to firelighters being petroleum-based products. However, eco-firelighters are completely different. They are made from natural wood fibres, and often, the only thing that is added is vegetable wax to help with the ignition.

If you use good quality seasoned firewood or kiln-dried firewood when you use some waste paper from an old newspaper, this eco-friendly firewood can help ignite the fire quickly.

What type of hardwood and softwood logs do you keep in stock?

We often have ash and oak logs in stock. However, we also stock many different logs, all of which have been kiln-dried in our farm’s kiln.

Therefore, regardless of whether we are selling softwood or hardwood logs, you can rest assured that all of the timber, our firewood, has been baked in our kiln.

We only sell firewood with a very low moisture content, which means that whichever type of firelighter you choose to purchase, you will be able to ignite our logs very simply.

This is another reason why our firewood company is very popular: our logs offer consistently high-quality year in and year out.

Therefore, when our customers purchase from us, they know that they will obtain superb-quality logs or firewood.

This makes our logs much simpler to ignite, helping you save time.

Wet logs, or logs that have been kiln-dried but for not long enough, what happens is that the logs will still have too high moisture content.

This produces a dull burn and excessive amounts of soot, which will damage your chimney.

On top of that, the logs are usually very hard to ignite, so we would only recommend buying from a log supplier with an excellent reputation, like our company, for consistently high-quality logs.
