Our Story
Three generations of the same family have worked in timber, with roots in the trade dating back to 1951. Flamers itself was founded in Mullingar in 2009, turning recycled timber into Ireland's first EPA-licensed woodlog.
Three Generations in Timber
Our family's story in timber began in 1951, long before Flamers existed as a brand. Three generations later, that same hands-on knowledge shapes every log we produce.
Today we're still based at the same Mullingar facility, delivering nationwide and run by the same family that started it all.

Today
Still Family Run
Third generation, still hands-on.
The same family runs the Mullingar facility, with the next chapter still being written.
Our values
Three generations on, the principles behind every log are the same ones the family started with.
Innovative
We made Ireland's first 100% recycled woodlog, and we keep finding better ways to burn cleaner.
Sustainable
Our core range starts life as timber bound for landfill, and it’s Ready to Burn certified.
Local
Every log is produced at our own facility in Mullingar, with jobs kept local in Westmeath.
Warm
Still family run since 1951, bringing comfort and warmth to Irish homes every winter.
Our family has worked in timber since 1951. Nothing was ever wasted, and that same respect for the wood is behind every Flamers log we make today.
