All our wood is grown in the UK by sustainably managed British woodland. Our wood-based fuel is 'Ready to Burn', ‘Made in Britain’ and 'Woodsure' accredited, assuring high quality standards across our processes, all the way through to our end-products and always with a focus on ethical sustainability.

Additionally, we are currently working towards our production site becoming net zero.
