Ecofire HotBrix Hardwood Briquettes

At UK Timber we operate many types of briquette presses. Our HotBrix Briquettes are made using machinery made by both RUF and UMP, the two market leaders in this type of briquetting machinery. The finished product is an oblong brick shaped high density wood briquette, some will be embossed with the RUF logo and some will not. The quality of both is identical and equally deserving of the Ecofire brand name.

With so much success with our Ecofire HotRods and their transition into a boxed option, we have made to decision to do the same with our ever-popular Ecofire HotBrix (formerly RUF briquettes). Same quality with the added simplicity and ease of use from our eco-friendly boxes. These briquettes are very dense and highly calorific, every part of the briquette and packaging can be utilised and burned!

They are made from a mixture of Oak and Larch, with the Larch helping the natural binding process - no chemicals or other additives are used in this process, these briquettes are the most ecologically sound means of heating your home and are completely carbon-neutral.

When burning our briquettes, please remember that to achieve maximum burn time and effective heat output they should be left alone once burning, do not poke the fire, or burn time will reduce. The briquettes will expand naturally once alight, so it is best to start the fire with a moderate amount of briquettes to allow for expansion, then marvel at how such a small amount of this superb briquette can produce so much heat.

You will find that our HotBrix heat logs burn with a hugely pleasant flame, to begin with, which then changes to a highly efficient and calorific glow phase once the flames have disappeared. If burnt in a stove with properly controlled airflow these briquettes can throw out huge amounts of heat for hours.

Our HotBrix briquettes are made within our Corby depot, making them a true UK made product and reduces the transportation carbon footprint that other wood fuels may hold, from the time they are produced all the way to their delivery to your home. The boxes and the pallet that the briquettes are burnable, meaning no unnecessary plastic waste (something that we are very proud of!).

Each box contains 12 briquettes. All calorific values can be found in the Certificate of Analysis. 

Advantages of our boxed option over our bulk bag offerings:

• Lightweight; only around 10kg per box making it easy to handle.
• Being in small boxes, it only required you to handle a single box at a time for use with fire over managing a large bulk bag.
• Made from eco-friendly cardboard, the boxes can simply be burned when empty alongside the briquettes leaving less waste to deal with.
• Being a box with square corners, stacking and storing is a breeze. You can store the same amount of briquettes in less space compared to loosely stacked alternatives.

This listing is for a single box, although we also supply pallets of 24, 48, 72, and 96 boxes, as well as bulk bags and single sample boxes (see below).
