Traditional kindling sticks in nets. Evenly sized and kiln dried. Sourced locally to us in Dumfries and Galloway, from sustainable sources.
Packed in nets. Traditional Kindling sticks are made in Scotland from local, sustainably sourced kiln-dried softwoods. Consistently sized and very attractive, they are a traditional way of lighting your fire.
An old-fashioned favourite, our kindlers are clean, dry and easy to light. They will burn quicker than Hotmax or other cobs but will ignite a well-laid wood based fire easily and effectively.
Starting a wood-based fire. Use a good handful of sticks on top of a Dr Heat firelighter and place one or two briquettes on top.
Kindling sticks are packaged in Nets – We are working with our supplier to move to cardboard boxes as soon as possible. Please check with your local authority for recycling facilities.
Woodlets is the UK’s leading brand of super premium grade wood pellets. Woodlets are produced in Scotland from 100% sustainable UK timber, are BSL registered and fully RHI compliant.
Woodlets biomass pellets are the UK’s leading brand of super premium grade wood pellets. Woodlets are produced in Scotland from 100% sustainable UK timber, are BSL registered and fully RHI compliant. We are registered with the Biomass Suppliers List (BSL) and every purchase comes with a BSL compliant receipt.
Woodlets biomass pellets are only for use in biomass boilers and specialised pellet stoves; they are not suitable for use in wood burning stoves, multi-fuel stoves, or open fires.
Woodlets are also suitable for use in pellet-fired pizza ovens. These are softwood pellets but once pelletised, there is very little difference between soft and hardwoods. They have the same energy output as branded hardwood pellets but cost much less to buy. You can read about our personal experiences using Woodlets as pizza fuel here.
Woodlets are produced from FSC certified forestry. FSC stands for the Forest Stewardship Council. This ensures that the timber used is sourced from forestry which complies with strict social and economical responsibility standards. To read more about the Forest Stewardship Council, click here.
Woodlets are made in Ayrshire using timber from local forestry, reducing the distance that the raw materials have to travel to be processed. This helps us to drastically reduce our carbon footprint.
Envi 8’s Big Brother. Extra-large, clean burning hardwood briquettes from the USA. Great for long burning in big, greedy stoves. Extra-large, dense blocks, not suitable for small stoves.
Envi XL 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 exceptionally large, dense briquettes are made from oak and hard maple.
The huge size of Envi XL makes them ideal for larger stoves – they will be too big for many smaller stoves. They are unlikely to fit on a stove 4kw or smaller but check the measurements provided to be certain.
Larger than their little brother, the Envi8, each Envi XL weighs around 2.7kg and are impossible to break. They have little to no expansion when burning. 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. They cannot be broken.
Best suited to long burning in stoves 5kw and over, 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.

These large, dense briquettes are made from oak and hard maple.
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.

A handy UK made cob, ideal for starting the fire, reviving a dying fire, or as a main fuel for small stoves. Made from 100% by-product.
Hotmax 20kg is made in the UK from softwood fines (sawdust and bark) extracted whilst making dust free horse bedding. The wood used is all from sustainably managed British forestry and the Hotmax cobs are made using a product that would have otherwise gone to landfill.
Two or three cobs will produce fast heat and flame, leaving a good ember base. Use a handful of Hotmax with a Waxling firelighter in the centre to get the fire going quickly. They do expand slightly, so place them carefully in the fire so they don’t expand onto the glass window or hearth.
Starting or reviving a fire. The fact that they’re a bit smaller than some of the other briquettes makes them great for quick heat and they’re brilliant for reviving a dying fire. They’re an ideal kindling replacement but can also be a main fuel in smaller stoves. The cobs come in a variety of sizes but larger ones can be broken if needed. They hold their shape well, so are clean to handle.

A British made hardwood briquette, ideal for small stoves under 5kw. An economical and easy to use briquette.
Everyday Value Briquettes (formerly known as UK Hard) are a cylindrical briquette made from a mixture of hardwoods. They’re made in England using sawdust produced from the manufacture of hardwood mouldings for furniture. Each 5kg pack contains four briquettes that very easily break into smaller sections; this makes them better suited to smaller stoves as they may burn too fast in larger stoves.
They are easy to light and quick to reach a high operating temperature, which enables your stove to work at maximum efficiency. They burn with a lively flame before providing a perfect ember bed for the next briquette. Everyday Value Briquettes will expand lengthways as they burn, so place them across your fire rather than pointing towards the hearth.
Smaller stoves under 5kw. Break them up into smaller pieces and place them around one firelighter for a quick and easy way to light the fire, or use as a main fuel.
None of our briquettes contain additives or chemicals. They are made from pure, untreated wood by-product and are held together by compression alone.
RUF Beech are a dense wood briquette, made from 80% Beech and 20% Pine.
RUF Beech are a dense wood briquette, made from 80% Beech and 20% Pine.
They’re pale brown in colour and very well-compressed.
Because they’re square, RUF blocks don’t roll in the hearth, so they’re easy and safe to use in an open fire.
Giving out a steady heat with a nice flame, these are really easy-to-use-briquettes. They burn for around two hours depending on airflow and give off good heat for the duration of their burn time.
RUF Beech are great to get the fire going, used as a ‘heat sink’ in the back of the fire, where they will glow for a couple of hours and help create a really good heart in your fire. Many people also use RUF Beech as a sole fuel throughout the burn. They are a handy size so are excellent on a smaller stove or open fire.
Our briquettes are all additive-free. They are made from pure, untreated wood by-product and are held together by compression alone.
So you can focus on getting the perfect mix, we’ve kept it simple:
Restricted Access: If you require a 7.5 tonne delivery vehicle, the maximum pallet weight you can order is 720kgs. This is due to industry regulations.
The Wood Fuel Co-operative offers you the ability to Pick and Mix your own pallet of wood fuel. This unique service, where we build a pallet to your exact requirements, is a flexible, cost-effective way to buy your briquettes.
‘Mix Your Own’ Pallets start with a base charge of £65, which covers the cost of packing, wrapping, strapping and delivering (surcharges apply for offshore) your pallet. This lets us offer you the unique ability to have total flexibility with your choice and quantity of products. You can put as much or as little on your base pallet as you choose, of any combination of briquettes, as long as you stay within the maximum 980kg weight limit.
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.
Each pallet must have no more than 980kg on it; you will be alerted if your order exceeds the weight limit. You can order multiple ‘Mix Your Own’ Pallets but you must add each pallet to your basket separately. There are quantity restrictions on some items; this is due to packaging requirements.
*Break - We strongly recommend you break these briquettes in half (or less for very small stoves) because they do expand whilst burning and you don't want them to overfill the fire.
*Easy to light - We always use a Firelighter and Kindling Sticks to start our fires. Most briquettes are graded four stars to light because they are quite dense and require kindling.
