• Dense, Hardwood Firewood
• Intense High Heat Output
• Long Burning Firewood

Hornbeam is a very dense and heavy type of firewood, it has similar burning qualities to oak and beech firewood.

You can expect a very long burn duration and a hot heat output.

This firewood is kiln dried and has a moisture content lower than 20%. It is an excellent firewood and offers real value for money.

All of our firewood is certified with the Ready to Burn scheme. This gives you peace of mind that all of our firewood is properly kiln dried, and has a moisture content of 20% or less.

Hornbeam is a very strong and very dense type of firewood.

It burns very similar to oak and beech firewood, so you can expect a long burn duration with a very high heat output.

Hornbeam firewood has a similar appearance to ash firewood; however, it is much heavier and has a similar calorific value to oak logs. Because of the density of this firewood, it can be trickier to light than the likes of birch firewood (which is softer). That being said, once the firewood is burning away, you can sit back and enjoy the heat output from this long burning log. If you find that you are refuelling your wood burner often, this could be the right log species for you!

Because of the hardness of this firewood, it is often used for furniture and flooring. The hardness firewood directly affects the burn duration. We would consider this to be an excellent type of firewood, and would recommend this to all customers looking for a firewood that offers a longer burn time.

As with all our wood products, hornbeam is kiln dried to give a moisture content of less than 20%. It will give a nice, smouldering flame when burning, and doesn’t spit or give off a lot of smoke.

The logs are cut and split to the length of: 25cm

Our kiln dried logs are dried in our automated purpose-built kiln to produce timber that’s as dry as possible

using Biomass Technology fuelled from the by-product created in our sawmills – nothings goes to waste.

HOW TO USE:

To start the fire, lay the base with kindling and firelighters. Make sure to let a good amount of air into the fire, and that your kindling is flaming away before adding a couple of logs of hornbeam.
