Description

Woodlets Briquettes – UK-Made Softwood Briquettes

Woodlets are premium-grade briquettes made in Scotland from softwood sawdust. They produce excellent heat with an attractive flame and are suitable for general burning in stoves and open fires.

Their rounded-square shape is practical as well as distinctive: it helps stop the briquettes from rolling around on the fire. They’re also easy to break, so you can adjust the size to suit your stove.

What are Woodlets Briquettes made from?

Woodlets are made from mixed softwood sawdust from sustainably managed British forests.

They contain no additives, chemicals or artificial binders. The untreated wood by-product is held together by compression alone.

What are they like to burn?

Woodlets give strong heat with a lively, attractive flame. Each briquette has an active burn time of around 1.5–2 hours, although this will vary depending on your stove, flue and airflow settings.

The rounded-square shape helps the briquette stay in position rather than rolling around as it burns.

Where can I use them?

Woodlets Briquettes are suitable for stoves and open fires. They’re easy to break, so you can adjust the size to suit anything from a smaller stove to a larger firebox.

If you’re unsure whether they’re right for your stove, our Wood Briquette Finder can help.

Do I need to break them before burning?

Yes, at least until you’re familiar with how they behave in your stove.

Woodlets expand by approximately 25% of their length as they burn. We recommend breaking them in half and using one half at a time. When lighting the fire, use three half-briquettes.

Be careful not to position a full briquette where it could expand against the stove glass or out onto the hearth.

Can I use Woodlets in an open fire?

Yes. Woodlets work well in open fires as well as stoves.

Their square profile is particularly useful here because it helps to stop the briquettes from rolling as they burn.

Can they be used in a Smoke Control Area?

Woodlets Briquettes are suitable for use in Smoke Control Areas when burned in a DEFRA-approved appliance.

They’re Ready to Burn certified and meet FSC sustainability standards.

You can read more about the scheme in our guide to Ready to Burn wood fuel.

How should Woodlets Briquettes be stored?

Like all wood briquettes, Woodlets need to be kept completely dry.

A watertight shed, dry garage, porch, conservatory or dry outbuilding is suitable. They can also be stored inside the house or in a watertight plastic garden store.

Don’t leave them in a traditional open log store, an uncovered area or a damp building. Briquettes are already very dry, so they’ll absorb moisture if exposed to it. Once damp, they begin to expand and can eventually turn back into sawdust.

Is the packaging waterproof?

No. Each pack is wrapped in plastic to hold the briquettes together, but the wrapping isn’t fully sealed or waterproof.

Pallets are also plastic wrapped to protect them during transport. This offers temporary protection from the weather, but it isn’t suitable for outdoor storage. Make sure you can move the fuel under cover or protect it when it arrives.

Please check with your local authority to see whether the packaging can be recycled in your area.

Delivery

Pallets

DELIVERY INCLUDED TO MOST UK MAINLAND ADDRESSES. Check for Surcharges

Due to industry regulation changes, if you require a 7.5 tonne delivery vehicle the maximum pallet weight you can order is 720kgs. If you are unsure what vehicle size you need please phone us on 01387 731 210 to discuss your requirements.

Pallet Orders are delivered by our partner couriers, TPN, not our own drivers.

Your goods are delivered on a pallet, the footprint of which is usually approximately 1.2m x 1m. The height of the pallet depends on the products you’ve ordered but may be up to two metres high.

The maximum weight of a pallet for non-restricted access deliveries is 980kg.

Our pallet courier will normally deliver your order on an 18 tonne lorry with a tail lift. This means the kerbside of your property must be accessible to a large vehicle. If a bin lorry can access the road then an 18 tonne lorry should be able to as well but it will be up to the driver to determine this.

A good guide is to expect the driver to leave your pallet where your bin goes out for collection. 

If TPN are unable to deliver to the kerbside of your property, for example because of access restrictions which mean a 7.5t vehicle will not be able to get to the property’s kerbside, we will need to put special delivery arrangements in place. These arrangements may incur additional charges, for which you, the customer, are responsible. If you think you may need alternative arrangements please let us know prior to ordering so we can get a quote for you.

For detailed information on pallet deliveries, please see our dedicated page.

 

Express Packs:

Wood Fuel express pack orders are sent with APC, who offer a Next Working Day service to most of the UK. Some areas are on a 2-5 day service, so if you need your order urgently please check with us first.

We do not guarantee Next Working Day delivery, although we will always dispatch your order as quickly as possible to ensure it has the best chance of arriving when you need it. Orders placed after 12pm will generally be dispatched the next day, or on Monday if placed after 12pm on a Friday.

For further information on delivery, please see our dedicated page.

Restricted Access

Our pallet courier will normally deliver your order on an 18 tonne lorry with a tail lift. This means the kerbside of your property must be accessible to a large vehicle. If a bin lorry can access the road then an 18 tonne lorry should be able to as well but it will be up to the driver to determine this. As a guide, please check the measurements:

Length of vehicle: 11 metres; Height of vehicle 4 metres; Width of vehicle 2.5metres. 18T & 7.5T vehicles are the same width.

The driver may not be able to access your road if there are:
• low overhead lines or low hanging branches
• low bridges or bridges with weight limits
• narrow access roads that prevent the vehicle manoeuvering/turning

Restricted Access
If you think that an 18 tonne lorry will not be able to access your road, we can ask Palletways to use a smaller vehicle. For this option, please ensure:
• your order weighs no more than 720kg
• you tick the ‘Access Restrictions’ button at checkout
• you put in your order notes that you require a 7.5T vehicle

7.5T is the smallest vehicle we can request. If you’re not sure, please phone us on 01387 731 210 and we can check your access for you.

If TPN are unable to deliver to the kerbside of your property, for example because of access restrictions which mean a 7.5t vehicle will not be able to get to the property’s kerbside, we will need to put special delivery arrangements in place. These arrangements may incur additional charges, for which you, the customer, are responsible. If you think you may need alternative arrangements please let us know prior to ordering so we can get a quote for you.

Storing Your Briquettes

We recommend storing your briquettes indoors only.

DO store your briquettes in:
    • Watertight shed
    • Dry garage
    • Porch or conservatory
    • Inside house
    • Dry outbuildings
    • Some plastic garden stores, as long as they are watertight
DO NOT store your briquettes in:
    • Traditional log stores
    • Uncovered, outdoor areas
    • Buildings that are damp or have high humiditiy levels
Traditional log stores are open or vented. This is because logs require airflow around them to keep them dry. Briquettes are already dry so if they are exposed to moisture they will start to expand. This makes them useless for burning. Storing your briquettes the right way is really important. A damp briquette will just turn back into sawdust!

Packaging

To keep them in good condition, these briquettes come in plastic wrapped packs. Please check with your local authority for recycling facilities. Packs are plastic wrapped but not always fully sealed, as the pakaging is there to hold the briquettes in place, not to waterproof them. Please take this into account when deciding where to store your briquettes. Pallets will arrive wrapped in plastic to protect them during their journey. This plastic will temporarily protect them from inclement weather but is not suitable for outside storage. Please ensure you are able to cover/protect the pallet if you are not able to put it under cover immediately.
