Why choose British Charcoal?

When you buy GiB certified charcoal, you're not just preparing for a fantastic BBQ, you're also supporting local economies and promoting sustainable forestry practices in Britain.

❌ The charcoal imported into the UK may come from primary forests that are often illegally logged. Aside from endangering habitats, this often involves locals working under poor conditions for minimal pay.

✅ British charcoal is produced closer to home, which means less energy is used to transport it. It's also likely to support small, local businesses that are deeply committed to the conservation of British woodlands.

So to feel good with what you're grilling with, choose to support our GiB certified charcoal suppliers:

⭐ Caradoc Charcoal
⭐ The Dorset Charcoal Company
⭐ Stag British Charcoal
⭐ The Oxford Charcoal Company
⭐ Valley Forestry LTD LTD
⭐ Whittle and Flame
⭐ Oakwood West Estate
⭐ Three Copse Woodland Products
⭐ The Natural Charcoal Company
⭐ Froe Wood Coppice Products
⭐ Wye Coppice C.I.C
⭐ Hazel Woodland Products
⭐ Wealden Charcoal
⭐ Buck Hurst Wood

Our name has changed but it's still the same team. Woodfuel and woodland management was where we started with a 'little charcoal' thrown in since 2017 as part of diversification of the business.

Who knew that producing British Charcoal would become the core part of the business in 2023. Its taken lots of work, long hours, high stress, a few arguments and the help and support of family and an amazing bunch of close friends. I won't name but you know who you are and what you've done!!

There is still work to do - with the second retort being delivered in the not-to-distant future......

Please visit our new website: www.stagbritishcharcoal.uk which will tell you all you need to know about the journey so far and where its heading....

Lots happening with Herts WoodFuel, with a name change on the cards to reflect the focus of the business on producing our delicious Stag British Charcoal.
There’s a big project in the pipeline that will be revealed later in the year which we hope will generate more interest in buying British Charcoal.
More to follow….

Due to an unprecedented demand for our WoodSure “Ready to Burn” firewood, we have sold out.

At the moment, we only have part-seasoned firewood that is still drying and won’t meet tbe “Ready to Burn” Standard until early Spring 2023.
