Aspen Briquettes Express
Long burning with an easily-controlled heat output. An excellent, versatile briquette.
- NEXT WORKING DAY DELIVERY*
- BOXED PARCEL DELIVERY
View in store pricesDescriptionDeliveryStoring Your BriquettesAspen Briquettes
Made from:
Aspen Briquettes are made from clean, kiln-dried aspen sawdust. The sawdust is a byproduct from sauna manufacturing; trees are not felled specifically to make these briquettes. They are well compressed with minimal dust. A lovely pale golden colour, with a gentle outer sheen from their excellent, high compression levels, these briquettes are as attractive as they are effective.
Burning characteristics:
Aspen Briquettes are large, nestro style heat logs with a hole down the middle of them. This makes them very versatile and easy to use. Broken into small pieces they are excellent for starting the fire; in halves or thirds they are a pleasantly hot, long-burning main fuel. They are perfect for general burning and do not have as fierce a heat as briquettes such as Beech Nestro and Pini-Kay. This means it’s easy to control the heat output. With controlled airflow, they can burn for hours while still giving out good, steady heat.
Aspen in briquette form is an excellent firewood and has none of the drawbacks of aspen in traditional log form. It does not spit or pop, and is long burning.
As with most nestro briquettes, Aspen briquettes will expand when burning, so unless you have a large stove we recommend you break them in half by tapping two together.
Perfect for:
All stove sizes and burning stages. Aspen Briquettes burn hot and for a long-time, so they are great for quick bursts of heat as well as general burning.
None of our briquettes contain additives or chemicals. They are made from pure, untreated wood by-product and are held together by compression alone.
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.
We recommend storing your briquettes indoors only.
Storing Your Briquettes – The Basics: 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
These briquettes come in plastic wrapped packs. Please check with your local authority for recycling facilities. Each pack is plastic wrapped but not always fully sealed. They are not in waterproof packaging. There will often be gaps in the wrap, due to the wrapping process. The wrap is only there to hold the packs together, rather than to weatherproof them. Please take this into account when deciding where to store your briquettes.

View in store pricesDescriptionBest of British Bundle – Express Parcel Delivery!
Best of British Bundle is a 60kg parcel pack, delivered to your door in 3 x c.20kg boxes
This will not be delivered on a pallet – it will come in a standard parcel van.
The UK now produces a great range of wood briquettes and we’ve gathered together our favourites here, in our Best of British Bundle!
This large express pack consists of:
1 Box of Dr Heat Firelighters
Hotmax x 20kg
UK RUF x 10kg
Woodlets Heat Logs x 10kg
Woodlets Briquettes x 10kg
Everyday Value Briquettes x 10kgDr Heat are carbon neutral firelighters made in England from miscanthus grass and recycled candle wax

Woodlets Briquettes are ‘squircle’ (squared circle) shaped heat logs, made in Scotland using pure wood from sustainable UK timber
Everyday Value Briquettes are small, easy to break cylinders made in England by a company producing hardwood furniture
Perfect for:
Our Best of British Bundle is suitable for large or small stoves, but please crack the larger briquettes into half for use in a smaller stove. As to burn time, it is impossible for us to predict as some people burn ’24/7′ whilst others burn ‘as and when required’. Also, some people have large greedy stoves and some have small highly efficient stoves.
With any fuel that is new to you, start slowly until you get to know how it performs on your stove. They all burn hotter and longer than traditional logs. You’ll find some work better for you that others but this is a great way to try our full UK range.
Best of British Bundle is ideal for testing modern high performance UK wood fuels in your stove.
Burning characteristics:
These easy-to-use briquettes give out steady heat with an attractive flame. They burn longer and hotter than logs, and much cleaner than coal. If you currently use traditional logs this is a great opportunity to compare heat output, cleanliness and length of burn.
None of our briquettes contain additives or chemicals. They are made from pure, untreated wood by-product and are held together by compression alone.

Most of these briquettes come in a plastic pack. Please check with your local authority for recycling facilities.
Manufacturers widely use plastic to wrap briquettes, ensuring that they stay dry. A damp briquette breaks up, making it unsuitable for burning. We genuinely care about the environmental impact of our products and are constantly working to improve the sustainability of our packaging by using cardboard in place of plastic wherever possible. We also offer a plastic recycling scheme to customers returning their empty packaging to us. Environmental responsibility

Envi 8 Briquettes Express
Large, clean burning hardwood briquettes. Great for long burning in big, greedy stoves.
- NEXT WORKING DAY DELIVERY*
- BOXED PARCEL DELIVERY
View in store pricesDescriptionDeliveryStoring Your BriquettesEnvi8
Made from:
Envi8 are made from clean, kiln-dried sawdust from a company in the USA that specialises in producing high quality fuels from sustainably sourced hardwoods. The sawdust is a byproduct from preparing the timber for other industries; hardwood trees are not felled specifically to make these briquettes. These large, dense briquettes are made from oak and hard maple.
Burning characteristics:
The size of Envi8 makes them ideal for larger stoves – they will be too big for many smaller stoves. Smaller than the Envi XL, each block weighs around 1.5kg and they are impossible to break. Because of this, they give a long, hot burn on an established fire and are ideal for keeping large, greedy stoves going.
They are also suitable for burning overnight, with much less ash produced than RUF Bark bricks. Burn time will depend on your stove and air flow settings but some stoves will stay in overnight with these. However, we do not recommend smouldering (burning with low air flow) as it increases the particulates released into the atmosphere.
Please carefully check the provided measurements to ensure they will fit in your stove.
Perfect for:
Best suited to long burning in larger stoves, these chunky briquettes can reduce the need to constantly feed a greedy stove.
None of our briquettes contain additives or chemicals. They are made from pure, untreated wood by-product and are held together by compression alone.
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.

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 vehicle7.5T 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 Palletways 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.
We recommend storing your briquettes indoors only.
Storing Your Briquettes – The Basics: 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
-
- Traditional log stores
-
- Uncovered, outdoor areas
-
- Buildings that are damp or have high humiditiy levels
Packaging
These briquettes come in plastic wrapped packs. Please check with your local authority for recycling facilities. Each pack is plastic wrapped but not always fully sealed. They are not in waterproof packaging. There will often be gaps in the wrap, due to the wrapping process. The wrap is only there to hold the packs together, rather than to weatherproof 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.This product has multiple variants. The options may be chosen on the product page -

Cosy Nights In Express Bundle
Express Bundle Delivery – Next Working Day for most of Mainland UK*
A selection of our favourite products so you can enjoy a cosy fire using modern high performance wood briquettes.
View in store pricesDescriptionCosy Nights In Express Bundle
Approx. 60kg in 3 x c.20kg packages delivered to your door
Please note the contents may be different from time to time depending on what we have in stock.
We have gathered together a selection of our favourite products so you can enjoy a cosy fire using modern high performance wood briquettes.
This Express Bundle consists of:
- Dr Heat Firelighters x 1 box of 30
- Hotmax x 20kg
- Woodlets Briquettes x 10kg
- Hardwood Pini-Kay x 10.4kg
- Beech Nestro x 10kg
- UK RUF x 10kg
Dr Heat are carbon neutral firelighters made in England from miscanthus grass and recycled candle wax
Hotmax are also great broken up into small pieces and used to light the fire.
Woodlets Briquettes are ‘squircle’ (squared circle) shaped heat logs, made in Scotland using pure wood from sustainable UK timber.
Hardwood Pini-Kay are an excellent briquette that doesn’t expand and gives out great heat
Beech Nestro are from Germany and probably the world’s best wood fuel briquette. High compaction and fine particle size giving a long and hot burn time.
UK RUF are a dense softwood briquette produced in England.
Our Cosy Nights In pack is suitable for large or small stoves, but please crack the larger briquettes into half for use in a smaller stove. As to burn time, it is impossible for us to predict as some people burn ’24/7′ whilst others burn ‘as and when required’. Also, some people have large greedy stoves and some have small highly efficient stoves. With any fuel that is new to you you just need to try it and work out which briquette suits your stove, flue and lifestyle. Do not load lots of briquettes onto your stove at one time as they burn hotter and longer than dry logs. Start slowly so you get to know the characteristics of the different briquettes.
None of our briquettes contain additives or chemicals. They are made from pure, untreated wood by-product and are held together by compression alone.
Burning characteristics:
These easy-to-use briquettes give out steady heat with an attractive flame. They burn longer and hotter than logs, and much cleaner than coal. If you currently use traditional logs this is a great opportunity to compare heat output, cleanliness and length of burn.
Perfect for:
Ideal for a weekend’s wood-burning or if you have run out of dry logs and need wood fuel quickly.
Packaging
Briquettes come in a plastic pack. Please check with your local authority for recycling facilities.
Plastic is widely used for wrapping briquettes, in order to ensure that they stay dry, as a damp briquette will break up and be unsuitable for burning. The environmental impact of our products is important to us, so we work constantly with our suppliers to improve the sustainability of their packaging by encouraging the use of cardboard in place of plastic wherever possible.

Beech Nestro Express
- NEXT WORKING DAY DELIVERY*
- BOXED PARCEL DELIVERY
Fine Beech sawdust grindings; dense and very clean. The best briquette in our range.
These expand by around 25% so must be broken in half for smaller stoves.
Dimension: 295mm x 95mm
Pack: 4 Logs x c.2.5kg = c.10kgView in store pricesDescriptionDeliveryParametersStoring Your BriquettesBeech Nestro
Made from:
Beech Nestro are made in Germany from pure beech grindings, which produce a dense, low dust briquette. The beech sawdust comes from a company producing high-end beech products and structures. These Beech Nestro are quite simply the best briquette we have ever found – probably the best briquette in the world.
Burning characteristics:
Each chunky log weighs around 2.5kg, so they’re great for bigger stoves. For smaller stoves, just break them into half before using. This is easy to do, – break them by sharply tapping two of the heat logs together. They’re very highly compressed, so they produce almost no dust and this density helps them burn for several hours. Best of all, they also produce huge amounts of heat with an attractive flame. They expand by about 25% as they burn, so place them across the firebox and just use small amounts until you’re confident with their burning characteristics on your particular stove or fire. Two will last up to four hours with excellent heat and flame characteristics. They generate a consistent heat so you don’t have to be up and down loading the stove or adjusting the air flow.
Perfect for:
Great for both stoves and open fires. For most stoves we recommend breaking them in half, as they will expand a little while burning.
None of our briquettes contain additives or chemicals. They are made from pure, untreated wood by-product and are held together by compression alone.
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.
