100% Biomass Firelighters - If You Care
Non-toxic, plastic-free firelighters made from FSC-certified wood and vegetable oil - no kerosene, no paraffin, no petroleum. Available in a 28-pack cardboard box or 72-pack paper bag.
Most conventional firelighters contain kerosene or paraffin wax - both petroleum derivatives. These contain nothing of the sort. 100% biomass means they're safe to store next to food, and produce no toxic fumes when lit. Each cube burns for 8-10 minutes with the strongest flame in the first five minutes - plenty of time to get wood or charcoal going.

How To Use
