🌱 Eco Firewood in Mallorca: Options and Tips to Save Heat 🔥
Eco firewood in Mallorca: what it really means, how to choose responsible suppliers, and how to reduce smoke and consumption without losing heat. 🌿
♻️ What is ecological firewood?
Ecological firewood comes from sustainable forest management, where every tree cut down is replaced by new plantations 🌲.
This ensures a balance between energy use and forest conservation.
In addition, ecological wood usually has a low moisture content, which improves efficiency and reduces smoke emissions.
👉 If you’re looking for efficiency, also check out which type of firewood produces the most heat in your fireplace.
🌳 Most common types of ecological firewood in Mallorca
In Mallorca, we find native and Mediterranean species that — besides being very calorific — can be considered ecological when harvested responsibly:
- Holm oak: dense wood with high calorific value and slow combustion 🔥
- Almond tree: pleasant aroma and long-lasting burn 🌰
- Olive tree: clean combustion and great performance 🫒
- Pine: ideal for kindling and small stoves (though it contains more resin) 🌲
💡 Tip: always choose certified local suppliers — this reduces your transport footprint and supports the island’s economy.
