Our crates of Kiln-Dried Silver Birch Hardwood Logs are a premium choice for anyone seeking quick heat, easy lighting, and a cosy, welcoming fire. Carefully kiln-dried to below 20% moisture, these logs burn cleanly, producing steady heat and vibrant flames with very little smoke.

Silver birch is known for its fast ignition, making it an excellent choice for busy households wanting instant warmth without hassle. Its bright flames and sweet aroma create the perfect ambience for relaxing evenings. The logs’ distinctive white bark makes them just as beautiful stacked by your fireplace as they are burning in your stove.

For longer fires, silver birch pairs perfectly with denser hardwoods like oak. Start your fire with birch for quick ignition, then add heavier logs for a sustained burn. Delivered in large crates, these logs are neatly stacked, easy to store, and excellent value for money.
