Log Fires sell top quality kiln dried firewood logs – sustainable timber sourced from renewable forests. All this, and delivered directly to your door anywhere in Ireland at the best prices.
All our firewood comes from sustainable EU forests. We use local suppliers where possible. Using a local supplier also helps the environment. It reduces the energy needed for transport as the timber has a shorter distance to travel. We recommend hardwood timber as a fuel. We believe this produces the best type of heat due to its density. A hardwood timber log contains more carbon than an identical sized softwood log, therefore creating greater heat for longer.
Here in Agvance we promise: –
- To ensure we source our firewood from sustainable EU sources
- To ensure our customers buy not only a good quality log but a consistent quality timber log
- To ensure all our customers are happy with our product. All feedback is welcome.

Sustainable Firewood from the EU
Timber is an excellent material from functional, environmental and aesthetic points of view. Timber is renewable and can be reused and recycled in certain applications. It is biodegradable in others and it is used in different forms in the production of a wide range of products as well as being a source of renewable energy.
In spite of the environmental advantages mentioned above, in order to assess whether a timber product is sustainable, it is important to consider its life sourcing, processing, and transport. Reduced environmental and other impacts during this phase can be incorporated into the design.
About 90% of the timber in of wood products sold on the European market is sourced from European forests. These forests are very largely sustainably managed and in most areas their surface area grows. Moreover, only just over 60% of the net annual increment is harvested.
The EU timber and fiorewood market has zero or low import tariffs, no quantitative restrictions and has no sector specific legislation apart from phytosanitary controls. Resulting from the 2003 Action Plan for Forest Law Enforcement Governance and Trade (FLEGT) is a series of voluntary partnership agreements (VPA) which the EU is negotiating with a number of timber producing and exporting countries. Once agreed, a VPA establishes that legally binding commitments and action from both parties to halt trade in illegal timber will apply.
