Tinder Sticks are a convenient and safe way to start fires, as they do not emit harmful fumes or chemicals. They burn hotter and longer than traditional options like paper or paraffin, and only one or two sticks are needed to ignite a strong fire or BBQ.  Each stick measures 15 x 15 x 140 mm (W x H x D) and is made from the resin-rich pine tree, which makes it burn exceptionally well. Although the burning resin may cause the smoke to appear black, the flame produced by fatwood is extremely hot with good smell.
