Discussing All Things Firewood

Woodsure is a not-for-profit organisation wholly owned and subsidised by HETAS.

DEFRA appointed HETAS & Woodsure to run the 'ready to burn' fuel certification scheme.

To be awarded a Woodsure certification a suppliers firewood has to be under 20% moisture content.

This includes annual inspections with pin metre readings at time of inspection alongside firewood samples that are taken away and oven tested in a lab environment to check the Wet basis moisture content.

Yes, all our logs are are seasoned for 12-18 months and have a moisture content below 20%. We are certified by the HETAS Woodsure ready to burn scheme, as all firewood suppliers who sell less than 2m3 should be under the new legislation.

What type of woods do we use?

We use a mixture of the hardwoods, such as Beech, Ash, Oak, Silver Birch and Sycamore.

​

Is the wood sourced from the UK?

Yes, all our wood is sourced from within the UK and mostly from Yorkshire.
