Fire Squares, the Easy Fire Starter Made from Recycled Materials
Fire Squares are a new style of fire starter that are lightweight, easy to use, and weather proof. Fire Squares are approximately 35 square inches of paraffin wax soaked recycled fabric which is folded into a square with a hole punched in the center. This shape allows for a slow burn to dry out tinder or a hot flame to quickly light your kindling on a cold night.
They’re small enough to fit in your pocket or survival kit. Take them on your next hiking, or camping trip and you’ll always be able to light a fire. Stop using messy and dangerous lighter fluid or gels that can spill or flare up, or chemicals like hexamine or trioxane that can release toxic gasses. Fire Squares can not spill, get crushed or evaporate. Made from the same stuff as a candle but as we like to say, Fire Squares are all wick, making them an excellent fire starter.
Fire Squares are eco-friendly, made from materials once destined for the landfill. Your Fire Squares are constructed from recycled fabric and will come in a wide range of fun colors and patterns.
Fire Squares light easily with a lighter or matches. Simply unfold a square into an accordion shape, then pile your kindling against it and you’re ready to go. Each square has a hole in the center that a stick can be stuck through to help hold the shape or use it to elevate the ignition point for better airflow.
With most fire starters you light a corner and hope that they burn long enough, or hot enough to do the job. With Fire Squares and the detailed instructions you’ll know how to get a fire started every time.
Each square burns for 2-7+ minutes, long enough to get your fire going. Use in your fireplace, on the trail, charcoal grill, or anywhere you need an easy fire at your command.
