Sitta cares about the planet and our responsibility to it. We only use recovered virgin wood in the manufacturing of our briquettes. We use sustainably sourced beech to create all our products. The wood we use is produced as a bi-product of furniture manufacturing, by using this Sitta maximises the use of this natural material. Independently certified by Biomass Plus, there’s no bark, no additives, chemicals or binders and it's fully traceable.
This Independent certification offers a guarantee throughout the production chain in terms of traceability, legality, environmental sustainability, product and process quality. The classification A1 indicates the wood is derived from tree trunk and has not been chemically treated, this ensures that our products are safe to use in commercial pizza ovens.
At Sitta we really focus on the small stuff, right down to the size of the particles in our briquettes. Our production process has been carefully refined over the years, the aim is to balance the amount of flame and embers to give a consistent long-lasting burn.
Our highly compressed briquettes have no binding agents, no bark, nor adhesives and use compression alone to bind them, they truly are 100% pure beech.
Our Cartons are 100% recyclable, we print them with vegetable ink. These inks are incredibly easy to remove during the de-inking process.
What this means is that less energy is required to recycle each box, resulting in a smaller environmental impact.
It’s all about efficiency, fuel is not wasted by not being burned. Clean burning without smoke means all the fuel is turned into heat in your oven. This has the added benefit of a minimal build-up of soot in your flue and subsequently requiring a lot less cleaning.
SITTA fuel products for cooking have been designed from inception to ensure they meet the very highest standards in respect of food safety, including meeting all aspects of legislation regarding food hygiene.
Cooking with wood is not only following a tradition going back centuries, but wood is a low carbon, sustainable and renewable resource. Significant CO₂ reductions are possible against other fossil-fuel derived heating such as gas and most electricity.
In designing our range of fuels for cooking, we started with the basic rules of health and hygiene. In 2004 these were detailed in law.
