Eco Firelighters
Our twisted wood wool eco firelighters have been handmade in the UK and are perfect for getting your fire started. Use 1-2 when lighting your fire with a small handful of kindling and let them do the work. Additionally, they are odourless, clean and natural making them safe to use on BBQ’s, log burners, fireplaces and firepits.
- Biodegradable Materials: Eco firelighters are made from natural, biodegradable materials such as wood shavings, and are often bound with vegetable waxes. Traditional firelighters, on the other hand, are typically made from paraffin which is not biodegradable and contributes to pollution.
- Sustainable Sources: The materials used in eco firelighters are often sourced sustainably. This reduces the carbon footprint and supports environmentally friendly practices.
- Reduced Carbon Emissions: Eco firelighters generally produce fewer harmful emissions compared to traditional paraffin-based firelighters. This minimises the release of toxic chemicals which contribute to air pollution.
- Non-Toxic: Eco firelighters are typically free from harmful chemicals and toxins, making them safer to use. Traditional firelighters can release volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and other harmful substances when burned, which can pose health risks.
- Odour-Free: Many eco firelighters are designed to be odour-free. This is unlike traditional firelighters which often have a strong, unpleasant chemical smell.
- Efficiency: Despite being made from natural materials, eco firelighters are often just as effective, if not more so, at igniting fires. They can burn longer and at a steady rate, reducing the need for additional accelerants.
- Multi-Purpose Use: Their natural composition makes them a versatile choice for both indoor and outdoor use without the risk of contaminating food or the environment.
