Namibian Firewood

The various Namibian invasive species of acacia like Kameeldoring (Camel Thorn), and Swarthaak (Black Thorn), not only produce the best available charcoal, but they also produce superb firewood for several reasons:
• It is denser than ash, and even oak, which weighs an average of around 650kg per cubic meter, while Namibian acacia can weigh in at up to 1230kg per cubic meter. And those comparisons are with European hardwoods having four times as a higher water content!
• Namibian firewood is dry at between 0 & 5% as opposed to the kiln dried European firewood of around 20%.
