Benefits of softwood

• Dried by the sun and wind in our log yard on the foothills of Nidderdale.
• Because softwood grows quickly, plantations reach maturity sooner than other wood types, meaning this is the most sustainable and cheapest wood we sell.
• This wood will burn more quickly and easily than other types of wood.

Minimal carbon footprint

• Our wood is sourced locally from well-managed sustainable woodland in Yorkshire, with the majority of our softwood being grown less than 3 miles from our log yard.
• We use locally sourced and recycled or recyclable packaging.
• We build our crates by hand on our premises, from reused pallets and locally sourced softwood.
• Our plastic packaging is recycled polythene, sourced and printed in the UK.
• No fuel is used in the drying process for these logs: only the sun and the wind!

Sustainability

• Sustainability is a core value of our business; as a result we have independently planted over 500,00 trees. We also donate the Woodland Trust’s ongoing woodland management projects.
• The Logwise Quality Assured scheme provides full information on the types of wood and the woodland the timber came from with each order, along with the processing and packaging timeline.

Suitability

• Well suited to wood burning stoves, BBQs and chimeneas

Storage

• We use mosquito net bags with vented sides, the most efficient way to store such logs while keeping them clean.
• We recommend storing these logs in a wood store, garage, or shed.

Size

• Our logs are cut to 23 cm length, then split to 5-15 cm (+/- 5%)
• Our large softwood logs are cut to lengths of 30 – 45 cm
