SUSTAINABLE, CLEAN BURNING LOGS AND FIRESTARTERS
Duraflame firelogs are engineered with the environment in mind, so you can burn worry-free.
Our Responsibility
CLEAN BURNING NEIGHBORHOODS
Multiple studies have consistently shown that, compared to burning wood, duraflame firelogs reduce emission levels from residential fireplaces. This means using Duraflame firelogs instead of wood can help reduce the negative impact on air quality in your neighborhood.

BURNS CLEANER THAN WOOD
Is Duraflame smoke toxic? The smoke emitted from a Duraflame firelog is no more concerning than smoke that would be emitted from a regular wood fire. Duraflame firelogs light faster and burn more completely than firewood, and because far less material is consumed when burning a firelog, significantly fewer pollutants are emitted than a comparable wood fire. Compared to a similar duration wood fire, a Duraflame firelog emits:
80% less fine particles
75% less carbon monoxide
90% less hazardous air pollutants

SAVES TREES
A Duraflame firelog consumes 80% less material than a comparable duration wood fire, and burning firelogs instead of wood results in significantly fewer trees cut down for use as firewood.

RENEWABLE RESOURCES
Duraflame firelogs and firestarters use only recycled wood and agricultural fibers, saving valuable natural resources. The renewable fibers are mixed with blends of wax and other combustible, renewable materials.
Some duraflame products are made from 100% renewable waxes and oils, combined with recycled and renewable sawdust and agricultural fibers. Look for a USDA mark on the packaging certifying their 100% biobased content.

GREENHOUSE GAS REDUCTION
Those Duraflame firelogs that are made from 100% renewable materials produce 70% less greenhouse gas emissions than an equivalent duration fire in a gas fireplace.
Although gas fireplaces are often touted as the cleanest burning alternative to firewood due to their low fine particulate emissions, 99% of their combustion emissions are greenhouse gases from non-renewable fossil fuel.
If you want to learn more about how duraflame firelogs reduce emissions, feel free to read the summary report Global Warming Reduction Benefits of Manufactured Biowax-Fiber Fireplace Logs.
