Description
Chunky Mix Pallet
Made from:
- Dr. Heat Firelighters are made in the UK from dried chopped miscanthus grass soaked in scented candle wax waste from a candle manufacturing factory.
- Hotmax are made from the waste fines (bark and wood) left over from the manufacture of horse bedding shavings.
- Woodlets Briquettes are ‘squircle’ (squared circle) shaped heat logs, made in Scotland using pure wood from sustainable UK timber
- UK RUF Bark are a dense Bark based briquette made in Hereford.
- Envirobrick are made in Ohio from mixed hardwood shavings generated as a by-product from the manufacturer of stairs, panels, doors and many other timber products.
Burning characteristics:
- Dr. Heat Firelighters light easily and burn for about ten minutes, easily setting light to any good dry kindling. We like the fact they are a UK product and a highly effective, easy to use lighter.
- Hotmax can be used as a kindling to light or revive any fire. Being quite small they also make an ideal main fuel for small stoves under 5kw. They can be variable in density with the harder denser briquettes being best for using as a main fuel whilst the softer lighter ones are best for use as a kindling.
- Woodlets Briquettes are a solid briquette without a hole making them suitable as a main fuel. They do expand when burning, so best cracked in half before test burning them. Do not overload your firebox.
- UK RUF Bark are designed to provide a long, slow burn for up to 8 hours.
- Envirobrick are the highest quality oblong sharped briquette we have found. They are so dense you will not be able to break in half, so ideal for larger stoves. For a large stove where you need a long slow tick-over briquette, these are great and will create a good ‘heat sink’ for you to generate low heat for many hours.
Perfect for:
This mix is ideal for medium to large stoves, which can be greedy to feed. The main fuels are large enough to fill a big stove and give good long-burning times, but the Woodlets are also a very flexible briquette that can be used to light or in large sections for longer 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.

Packaging
All these briquettes come in a plastic outer. Please check with your local authority for recycling facilities.
The briquetting industry uses plastic to wrap wood briquettes in order to ensure they stay dry, as damp briquettes break up and are unsuitable for burning. The environmental impact of our products is important to us, so we are constantly working with our suppliers to improve the sustainability of their packaging by using cardboard in place of plastic wherever possible.
