Straw Logs are a solid fuel made from 100% British Biomass. These environmentally friendly, farm grown, sustainable heat logs offer an annually renewable alternative to coal, charcoal or wood as a solid fuel.

Make the best choice:
Straw Logs are a sustainable solid fuel grown as a by-product of UK Food Production. Protect the environment by using this renewable green fuel.
• Straw Logs are a solid fuel recommended for open fires, wood burners, stoves, fire pits, chimeneas and camp fires.
• They are easily lit with fire lighter and paper.
• Ready to use- no need to be seasoned before use.
• The low moisture content maximises the heat produced on burning.
• The Nutrient rich ash is an ideal fertiliser for the garden thus
reducing waste, promoting plant growth and therefore carbon dioxide
uptake.
• Ready to use, so do not need to be seasoned.
can be burnt in combination with other fuels, or alone.
Clean alternative to coal and wood.
• The straw is a by-product from crops of wheat, oil seed rape and peas grown for food.
• All packaging is recyclable.
• No trees are felled to create this botanical fuel.
• No land meant for food production is sacrificed to provide this bio-fuel.
• The growing crops capture the energy from the sun which is released as heat from the straw logs when burnt.
• The CO2 released on burning the straw logs is equal to the CO2 released if the straw decomposes in the field.
• The equivalent amount of CO2 is reabsorbed by the next crop grown on our farm.
• Protect the environment by using this renewable, green and sustainable fuel.
Wheat grown for the UK bread industry, peas for processing and Oilseed rape
for locally cold pressed rape seed oil ‘Oil of Wight’ all leave a straw
by-product following harvest of the grain or seed.
The carbon cycle for straw logs is the shortest of all available fuels. The
carbon is recycled within one year compared to 5 to 150 years for wood or the
500 million year old carbon released from Fossil Fuels. Straw Logs therefore do
not increase the amount of ancient trapped carbon being released to the
atmosphere to contribute to greenhouse gases.

Why am I confident that you must try these logs as fire pit logs or instead of wood for wood burning stove?
1. It is far easier- due to its shape. It is so easy to hold and also to store. So easy to pile as it arrived packed tidy. It looks great while stored as all logs are same size. It is ready to use and as it is much drier than wood it is easier to light a fire.
2. Is it better quality, in several ways: it creates cleaner smoke with less water vapour, as it only contains half of the humidity compare with seasoned wood logs. It means very important things for you:
• Less dirt in the chimney- less risk of chimney fire and less cleaning needed.
• Enjoy more heat, as it contains less water.
• Less smoke- more environmentally friendly
3. You can use a material that is far more renewable and easy to produce at fairly low cost.
4. In addition the price is friendly too. We offer promotion prices for large orders.
Straw logs- FAQ
How are the logs bound together?
The lignin in the cell walls melts under the heat generated by the force
of compression and then binds the logs together on cooling
How do I store my logs?
The logs have a moisture
content of just 12% so must be stored in a dry location to avoid the absorption
of atmospheric moisture.
Are they dirty and dusty?
The logs are clean, dust and insect free so can be cleanly stored inside the
home.
Do I have to chop the logs?
Straw logs are ready to burn.
If you do wish to use smaller logs to control the heat output they can be
cleaved by hand.
Do I need to have kindling to light the logs?
No, break the logs into small chunks and the loose ends of the straw are
exposed, these light easily and are good kindling to light any type of fire.
How big are the logs?
Each full size log is 27cm long with a diameter of 7cm. These are sold in packs
of 5 logs.
How much do they weigh?
A full size log weights
approximately 1kg.
Do they take up a lot of space? No, the logs can be stacked in
very compact bundles. 50 packs is about the size of a fridge, 100 packs a fridge
freezer and 200 packs and American style fridge freezer.
Can they be broken up for small fires?
The logs are easy to break by hand into smaller chunks of 5 – 7 cm to facilitate lighting
the fire, shorter burn periods or for smaller fire places and chimeneas.
How do I light my straw logs?
1. Break off sections of a straw log. Place
around a base of paper and firelighters
2. Ignite fire lighter and allow maximum draft.
3. Place a MAXIMUM of two logs on the base once fire is established. Allow to
ignite then reduce draft.
4. Add further logs ONE at a time to the fire as required.
How long will they burn for?
The burn time depends on the fire type and air draw however, a 1 kg log will typically burn
for 40 minutes to an hour. Five full sized logs will burn for 4 to 5
hours.
What is the heat output of the logs?
1 kg of straw log has an energy value of 4.5kwHours which equates to 1kg
of kiln dried wood at 20% moisture.
How big are the packs?
Fuel Britannia straw logs are available in packs of 5 logs weighing 1kg.
How much ash will they leave?
The logs have an ash content of 3-4%. The ash is an ideal fertiliser for the
garden.
Do the logs spark?
The logs DO NOT spark.
Is land meant for food production used to
produce this fuel?
Arable land is used to grow the straw for the straw logs, but the straw is a
by-product from the food crops, which are the primary crop. Peas, oil seed rape
and wheat are produced from the same land which provides the straw.
Are straw logs better than wood and coal?
Straw logs can be co-burned with any other fuel, or burned alone. They have the
advantage of being clean as well as insect and dust free. They are drier than
wood and provide a consistent fuel which does not need to be seasoned before
use. They leave a little more ash which is a great fertiliser for the
garden.
