Sustainable Fire Starting, Handmade in Namibia
Omuriro Firelighters are 100% natural, eco-friendly fire starters handmade in Omaruru. Crafted from leftover invader bush too small for charcoal but too large for animal feed, each firelighter helps combat bush encroachment and supports local rural women. With upgraded packaging and improved burning qualities, Omuriro makes lighting any fire simple, clean, and green.

Light your braai, fireplace, or campfire the sustainable way with Omuriro Eco-Friendly Firelighters — a greener, cleaner choice that benefits both the environment and local communities.

Pierceable cartridges can’t be disconnected once they’ve been plugged into an appliance, so they’re suitable for more intensive or longer use.

However, the C206 GLS cartridge has a new integrated flow reducing system, the Gas Lock System, which is compliant to the new European standard EN 417:2012 legislation. The system prevents the majority of residual gas from escaping the cartridge when accidentally disconnecting it from the appliance, thereby also preventing flare-ups.
