Description

UK Hardwood Briquettes

 

What are UK Hardwood Briquettes made from?

UK Hardwood Briquettes are a cylindrical wood briquette made from mixed hardwoods. They’re produced in England using sawdust from the manufacture of hardwood mouldings for furniture. They are 100% pure, untreated wood dust, with no additives or binders.

Each 5kg pack contains four briquettes that easily hand-break into smaller sections if required.

What are UK Hardwood Briquettes’ burning characteristics?

Easy to light and quick to reach a high operating temperature, these small, versatile briquettes enable your stove to work at maximum efficiency. They burn with a lively flame and great heat.

What are UK Hardwood Briquettes suitable for?

Our best value economy heat logs, UK Hardwood Briquettes are ideal as a main fuel for stoves up to 5kw. They are also an excellent kindling replacement, with a quick starter flame and instant heat.

They are great for:

  • Small wood and multi-fuel stoves
  • Producing fast heat
  • Supplementing larger, denser briquettes
  • Lighting easily and quickly

How do I use UK Hardwood Briquettes?

Break them up into smaller pieces and place them around one firelighter for a quick and easy way to light the fire. Alternatively, use them in larger pieces as a main fuel in smaller stoves.

Best paired with…

Use them alongside a larger dense long-burn briquette such as Beech Nestro or RUF Oak for maximum efficiency.

Anything else I should know?

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. Some people find they produce some dust, especially when broken, so keep this in mind. 

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

Do wood briquettes have anything artifical in them?

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

In order to place wood briquettes on the UK market, we have to have Ready to Burn certificates for them. This involves regular chemical analyses of the briquettes to ensure that they are 100% pure wood with no additives or binders. It also reassures you that they are dry and safe to burn.

Delivery

Pallets

All prices shown include the cost of mainland UK delivery. For offshore addresses, you can check if surcharges apply using our postcode checker. 

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, Palletways, 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 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.

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. 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.

Storing Your Briquettes

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.
