    UK Hardwood Briquettes Express

     

    Made from:

    UK Hardwood Briquettes are a cylindrical briquette made from mixed hardwoods. They’re made in England using sawdust produced from the manufacture of hardwood mouldings for furniture. Each 5kg pack contains four briquettes that easily break into smaller sections if required.

    Burning characteristics:

    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 and great heat and are a perfect starter briquette or a stand-alone briquette in smaller stoves.

    A small, versatile hardwood briquette made in the UK. Easy to light with a high heat output; an ideal fuel for small stoves or for a quick flame and heat when using a dense long-burn briquette such as Beech Nestro.

    Perfect for:

    They are ideal for stoves up to 5kw or for a quick starter flame and instant heat when using a large dense long-burn briquette such as Beech Nestro. 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 in smaller stoves.

    These are economy briquettes, not long-burners. They’re great for smaller stoves and for quickly heating up the room but they’re not an ideal main fuel for larger stoves. They’re not a replacement for Beech Nestro or Woodlets, but they are brilliant when used alongside longer-burning products.

    They also need completely dry storage in order to keep them at their best.

    None of our briquettes contain additives or chemicals. They are made from pure, untreated wood by-product and are held together by compression alone.

    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. 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.
