By: Verdo Renewables Step forward Verdo renewable wood briquettes - which burn for twice as long as traditional logs and are sourced from renewable, managed wood supplies. One pallet of Verdo briquettes - which costs less than £300 delivered to your home - has the same output as 10m3 seasoned wood which would cost approx. £800 or 500L of heating oil which costs over £300 but creates more serious carbon emissions than wood burning and is, of course not sustainable. Ideal for open fireplaces and wood burning or multi-fuel stoves, Verdo wood briquettes are more eco-friendly, convenient and cost effective than logs or coal. The briquettes are clean, compact, can be split by hand and create minimum levels of ash (typically less than 1%) so less cleaning up is needed. And they don’t leave that black soot on the glass door of your wood burner either - much less cleaning time needed! Managing Director at Verdo, Richard Smith comments: “Many people don’t realise the saving they could be making by swapping their normal logs for wood briquettes. One of our pallets will last the average consumer a whole year and is the same weight as five bags of logs - but burns for twice as long. Not only do they offer a more cost effective way of heating your home but they are also much cleaner too - less ash and minimal marking on appliance glass doors. It’s still a fairly new option in the UK but is well established in Scandinavia, a region which knows all about how to keep warm.” Verdo manufactures 30,000 tonnes of wood briquettes from sustainable virgin timber at plants in Andover, Hampshire and Grangemouth, Scotland.
