DIY fans who want to be kind to the environment and keep warm at the same time have been encouraged to take advantage of a new product from eco-friendly company Green Stamp.
The firm has developed a range heat logs, which are designed to help homeowners avoid the use of coal and firewood and consequently cut down on the amount of fossil fuel they use.
According to Green Stamp, its logs are made from sawmill shavings taken from sustainable plantation forestry and would go to landfill if not used in the product.
With a moisture content of around ten per cent compared to 35 per cent for coal and firewood, each log burns for close to an hour and a half and can be used in heaters, open fires, garden chimneys and stoves.
Green Stamp is based in Cornwall and also aims to supply the public with eco-friendly products for the office, schools and interiors.
