“The easiest way to light a barbecue is to use a Grenadier Electric Firelighter. I have one of these for lighting barbecues, or for getting a nice fire going at home in the winter. These bits of kit are great because you don’t have to find dry wood or kindling or scrunch up bits of paper to get the fire started. But most important of all, there is absolutely no need to use any chemical firelighters or liquid fuels. It will even light wet wood and coals in just a few minutes! Please don’t use those little firelighter blocks you can buy in bags – they give off really dreadful fumes that will end up flavouring your food. Horrible.”

On the 13th December 2024 the EU are introducing the GPSR (General Product Safety Regulation) which means that, despite the Grenadier Firelighter meeting all relevant European safety standards, it will be financially prohibitive for us to sell the Grenadier in Europe and Northern Ireland. We are hoping that a workable solution can be found, as this EU action will affect thousands of UK businesses, but until this solution is available we are very unfortunately having to stop selling any Grenadier products into these markets.
Customers in the EU and Northern Ireland are welcome to arrange collection from ourselves directly as this does not contravene the new regulations. If customers do want to organise collection please contact us first so that we can make the necessary arrangements.
