Why Choose Hornbeam?

  • Exceptional heat and long burn time: Hornbeam (also known as “ironwood”) is notably dense, giving a slow, steady burn and sustained warmth – fewer reloads needed.
  • Clean burning and efficient: When kiln-dried, it burns with minimal smoke and ash, helping to keep your flue and chimney cleaner.
  • High durability, high performance: With a bulk density of circa 735 kg/m³ (European hornbeam), it outperforms many softwoods.
  • Versatile for home and outdoor use: Suitable for log burners, open fires, pizza-ovens, saunas and BBQs – wherever you need sustained, clean heat.
  • Sustainable hardwood fuel: A renewable resource when responsibly sourced, ideal for those seeking an eco-conscious heating option.

Usage Recommendations

  • Storage: Keep the bag under cover and off the ground if possible. Ensure logs remain dry and ventilated to maintain the low moisture content and performance.
  • Ignition tip: Hornbeam’s high density means it may take slightly longer to get going compared to softwood. Begin with kindling and smaller logs, then add a few hornbeam logs once the fire is well-lit.
  • Appliance suitability: Perfect for wood-burning stoves, open fires and outdoor pizza ovens. Always check your appliance’s guidance for loading heavy hardwoods.
  • Burning behaviour: Expect longer burn times, more embers and deeper residual heat. Ideal for sitting back and relaxing rather than frequent reloading.
