Briquetting a way for a warmer winter
Paul Flint & Company, the local carpenters and joiners in Hambledon, are please to incorporate The Hambledon Briquette Company.
For the first time we were at The Petersfield Farmers/Christmas Festival it was a great success selling our carbon neutral briquettes to make everyone’s winter warmer, saving the pennies and helping the environment.
Everyone is well aware of the environment and the environmental impact of modern living. Most people know wood is a sustainable source being 100% renewable, but we at Paul Flint & Company have taken that knowledge one step further. We have invested in a new wood shaving extraction system thus helping make the workshop a friendlier environment. This system enables us to recycle our wood shavings, dramatically saving waste, which we then compress into timber Briquettes providing a sustainable resource. The resulting briquettes provide an efficient and economic fuel source which is good news for households keen to reduce fuel bills whilst keeping warm.
Burning briquettes as a fuel completes a natural cycle as on combustion they only release as much carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere as was originally absorbed by the growing tree during photosynthesis. They are a natural product, containing no additives, preservatives, glues or binders.
Briquettes have many advantages over traditional firewood/coal:
- We bag our Briquettes making for easy handling and storing
- Completely Carbon Neutral
- Clean
- No additives
- Light weight
- Burning produces 0.5% ash
- High calorific values Burning with heat output of between 5.8 and 6.2 kw per kilogram compare to 3.2 kw of logs and 6.2 kw of coal
- Sustainable resource
- 2.5kgs of wood briquettes = 1 litre of heating oil and 1 tonne of briquettes = 400 litres of heating oil
- Local deliveries are available
We offer price breaks depending on quantity and delivery. Briquettes are ideal for use on wood burners, open fire chimneys, furnaces and log burners. To place an order or if you have any queries about the briquettes then please do not hesitate to contact us.
So, not only do our customers receive fine custom made joinery, but also have sound knowledge that we recycle and contribute to a greener environment.
