Why are Goodwood® Firelogs better for the environment?
Local air quality agencies prefer the use of manufactured firelogs over firewood as they burn hotter and cleaner. However, most supermarket firelogs are wax-based, highly volatile and cannot be used in woodstoves or for cooking. While there are new natural wax firelogs now on the market, many still contain up to 60% (2-3 lbs) low-grade paraffin – a waste product of the oil refining industry, and are therefore non-renewable, fossil fuel-based products contributing to the global warming problem facing our planet. Goodwood® Firelogs, are densified wood firelogs, made with 100% carbon-neutral renewable resources. They burn with 25-50% fewer particulate matter emissions than firewood. Additionally, the manufacture of our firelogs solves a waste disposal problem for mills and forest management operations, diverting tons of trimmings from municipal landfills each month.
