Fire without
the forest.
Green Fire turns sawdust, coal dust and cassava into clean-burning fuel for Zambian homes and businesses. Same heat. Same cooking. No tree felled to get it.
Charcoal costs more than money.
Most Zambian households still cook on charcoal, and every bag of it starts as a standing tree. The cost lands twice — once at the market, and again on the woodland around our cities.
We start from the other end. Sawdust from timber yards, dust from the coal depots, cassava from the fields — waste that was already going to be thrown away — pressed into a fuel that lights easily, burns steadily and leaves less smoke in the kitchen.
What you get
- ✓Burns longer and steadier than loose charcoal, so one load lasts through the cooking.
- ✓Less smoke and less spitting — easier on the cook and on the pot.
- ✓Uniform blocks, so you know exactly what you are buying every time.
- ✓Made from waste material, not from felled trees.
- ✓Made in Lusaka, sold in Lusaka — no import, no long haul.
Three products. One idea.
Priced for everyday cooking, sold by the block, the bag or the unit. Prices shown include VAT.
Fire Blocks
Dense, uniform blocks that catch quickly and hold their heat. The everyday choice for home cooking and small kitchens.
Briquettes
Sold by the bag for households and businesses that cook every day. Better value per meal than buying loose.
Braziers
A stove built for our fuel. Holds the blocks properly so the air moves right and nothing is wasted.
From waste to fuel, on one site.
Everything happens at our Lilayi works — collection, blending, pressing and drying. Nothing is shipped in half-finished.
Collect
Sawdust from timber yards, coal dust from the depots, cassava and clay from local suppliers.
Blend
Measured into a consistent mix, so every block burns the same way as the last one.
Press
Compacted under pressure into blocks and briquettes that hold their shape in the bag.
Dry and pack
Air-dried in our drying houses until the moisture is out, then bagged ready for collection.
Collect from Lilayi.
Come to the depot and buy over the counter, or call ahead and we will have your order waiting. Trade and bulk pricing available — talk to us about regular deliveries.

Cook with it once.
Most people who try a bag come back for the next one. Start with a few blocks and see how they burn.
