WHY WOODCHUCK
Harder + dryer = burn better
-
01 Longer Lasting
Known as the "Ironwood tree", Mopane is one of the heaviest woods in the world, weighing in at more than 1 ton per cubic metre. It's unrivaled density means it produces coals that last long into the night (and even the morning).
-
02 Burns Hotter
With a moisture content of 0-2% (compared to 12-20% in other hardwoods) Mopane burns hotter, sometimes even producing a blue flame characteristic of efficient combustion. Stop wasting your money boiling overpriced wet wood.
-
03 Burns Cleaner
Our DEFRA & FSC certified wood burns cleaner with less smoke.
When your wood has lots of moisture, it can't fully combust. Rather, it uses all it's energy to evaporate all the sap and water. This results in excess smoke that can be harmful to the environment and not a great for open fires. -
04 Fire, Food, Family
Unlike charcoal, cooking on wood is about more than great food. Gathering around a fire has always been a catalyst that bring friends and family closer together, creating a culture of connection that reconnects us with our primal roots.
