Fuel Depot
At The Patio Centre, we understand the importance of reliable fuel sources, which is why we offer a comprehensive selection of solid fuels at our depot. Our range includes coal, wood, and briquettes, each serving different purposes.
Coal is renowned for its high heat output and long-lasting burn, making it ideal for heating homes and powering industrial processes.
Wood fuels, such as logs and pellets, provide a sustainable option for domestic heating and outdoor cooking, offering a natural ambiance and distinctive flavour.
Briquettes, composed of compressed biomass, offer efficient and clean-burning fuel suitable for barbecues and stoves.
Briquettes
Briquettes are one of the most versatile and efficient fuel sources available, ideal for both open fires and stoves. Composed of compacted materials, typically sawdust or biomass, these dense blocks offer consistent burn rates, producing a significant amount of heat with minimal ash residue. Our briquettes are crafted to ensure long-lasting warmth, making them an excellent choice for those who value both efficiency and sustainability.
Lignite
If you're seeking an affordable yet effective heating option, lignite might be the ideal choice. Known as brown coal, lignite is a soft, combustible sedimentary rock that offers a high calorific value, making it a cost-effective fuel option. It ignites easily and burns steadily, providing substantial heat output.
Turf
For those who prefer a more traditional approach to home heating, turf offers a unique and nostalgic experience. Turf, also known as peat, has been used for centuries across Ireland and is valued for its natural aroma and steady burn rate. It provides a slow, consistent heat, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.
Softwood and Hardwood
Softwood logs, derived from coniferous trees, are known for their quick ignition and fast burn. They are perfect for kindling or for fires that require an immediate burst of heat. Hardwood logs, on the other hand, are denser and burn more slowly, offering a longer-lasting and more consistent heat output. Hardwoods, such as oak or ash, are ideal for overnight burning, providing a steady warmth that lasts for hours.
Magic Flame Coal
For those seeking a cleaner-burning coal option, Magic Flame Coal is an excellent choice. This specially formulated coal ignites quickly and burns with a bright, steady flame, producing minimal smoke and ash. It is ideal for use in both open fires and stoves, providing a high heat output while maintaining a cleaner environment inside your home.
Nuggets
Nuggets are a compact and convenient fuel option, offering high heat output with minimal handling required. These small, dense pieces of fuel are easy to ignite and provide a steady, long-lasting burn. Nuggets are perfect for use in both open fires and multi-fuel stoves, offering versatility and efficiency.
Coal Bunkers
To complement our range of coal products, we also offer coal bunkers designed to provide secure and convenient storage for your fuel. Made from durable materials, our coal bunkers are built to withstand the elements, ensuring that your coal remains dry and ready for use whenever you need it. Available in various sizes, our coal bunkers are suitable for homes of all sizes, providing a practical solution for keeping your fuel safe and organised.
Kindling
No fire is complete without kindling, the small pieces of wood that help ignite larger logs or coal. Our kindling is sourced from quality softwood, ensuring it lights easily and burns steadily, creating the perfect foundation for a roaring fire.
Lignite Briquettes
Our lignite briquettes are manufactured to the highest standards, ensuring that you receive a product that delivers reliable performance with every use. Whether you're heating your home during the colder months or simply creating a warm atmosphere for a cosy evening, lignite briquettes are an excellent option.

Our delivery service is designed to ensure that you receive your fuel quickly and efficiently, without the hassle of having to transport heavy loads yourself.
