As the largest waxed cardboard recycler in North America, Enviro-Log works with both U.S. and Canadian businesses to reduce their waste by providing a better solution for wax cardboard than landfills.
"We use recycled waxed cardboard to manufacture our earth-friendly firelogs that burn cleaner and more efficiently than firewood, while offering more uses than competitive wax-sawdust firelogs," said Ross McRoy, president of Enviro-Log, Inc. "Enviro-Log firelogs offer Southern consumers a better alternative to wood heating because they produce 50 percent more heat per pound than wood and less emissions."
According to the U.S. Department of Housing, there are 37 million households today in the U.S. with one or more fireplaces, and one-third of those are used for secondary heating. Enviro-Log firelogs are ideal for your fireplace and woodstoves. When compared to wood, Enviro-Log firelogs produce 50% more heat than wood but emit 80 percent less carbon dioxide and 86 percent less creosote. Like wood, you can burn more than one Enviro-Log firelog at a time to enhance a fire. Unlike wood, Enviro-Log firelogs can also be stored and burned in all weather conditions. Enviro-Log firelogs are also the only manufactured firelog tested safe for use in woodstoves, chimineas, tailgating and outdoor cookouts. You can even use the ash from your Enviro-Log firelogs as fertilizer or potting soil.
