Sustainable Wood Burning

Environmental benefits of wood burning when using sustainable forestry and advanced wood burning technology to offer an environmentally sustainable solution to heating your home.

Sustainable Forestry

Rather than removing all the trees from an area, only certain trees are cut. This helps keep the forest healthy, supports natural growth, and lets younger trees develop properly.

Sustainable practices ensure that for each tree harvested, multiple new ones are planted or allowed to regenerate, helping forests stay healthy and grow over time.

A well-managed forest supports a wide range of plants and animals. By keeping forests diverse and balanced, sustainable forestry safeguards habitats and promotes biodiversity.

Efficient Modern Wood Burning Stoves

Our range of stoves and fires are designed for high-efficiency heating with low emissions, making many of them suitable for use in Smoke Control Areas when fitted with the appropriate smoke control kit.

These advanced stoves can reduce particulate emissions by up to 84% compared to older models, offering a cleaner and more environmentally responsible way to heat your home.

Built with efficiency in mind, they are engineered to extract the maximum heat from your fuel while keeping emissions to a minimum.

When it comes to performance, glass-fronted wood burning stoves offer a significant advantage over traditional open fires. By retaining heat and controlling the burn rate, these stoves provide far greater energy efficiency — often reaching ratings of 80% or higher, compared to just 20–25% for open fires.

This improved efficiency not only helps to reduce fuel consumption but also ensures more warmth stays in your home rather than escaping up the chimney. The result is a more sustainable and cost-effective way to enjoy the comfort of real flame heating.

CO2

Carbon Neutral

Unlike fossil fuels, the carbon released when burning wood is roughly equal to the amount the tree absorbed while growing. This makes it a nearly carbon-neutral energy source.

As we move away from coal, oil, and gas, wood provides a renewable alternative that can lower greenhouse gas emissions, especially when it’s harvested from responsibly managed forests.
