Biofires
Alcohol in Cape Town

BioFires - Specialized in ethanol burning fireplaces and the manufacturing of biofuels, environmentally friendly fireplaces.

The BioFuel used is a pure plant derivative, which is non-toxic, smokeless, odourless and environmentally friendly. Renewable crops such as sugarcane are used for production of BioFuel and because of this the environment is not destroyed, e.g. BioFuel, unlike oil, is an eco-friendly fuel and is therefore sustainable. Our BioFuel is thoroughly tested and received a positive opinion from specialists regarding its safety for both humans and the environment and with reservation of use in accordance with designation and label instructions. BioFuel is a biologically clean product of plant origin, which has undergone rectification three times. It constitutes an entirely renewable source of energy. With regards to environmental protection, in many countries, building law standards set up limitations in environmental release of hot air and fumes (such as during burning of wood, coal, briquette or fuel oil) in fear of environmental pollution and the so-called overheating that in a long-term cycle affect the ecosystem. For these reasons, in the so-called transitory heating periods (spring, autumn) it is recommended that one uses alternative heating equipment, mainly based on ecologically purer fuels. This recommendation also applies to hours during which, irrespective of the season of the year, we wish to temporarily increase room temperature. It is referred to as denatured Ethanol and is environmentally friendly. All one needs is a slightly open window or forced ventilation. As with any other open flame, it obviously has its dangers and should be kept out of reach of children and away from pets. Also the bottles of Biofuel should be kept out of sight and reach of children. Although the fuel is eco-friendly, and is denatured Ethanol, it will be harmful to your health. The only 2 emissions given off are Carbon Dioxide which is in the air we breathe already, and steam which will do no harm at all, the steam will moisten the air, rather than dry it out. Is there a cost saving in using a BioFire rather than an electric heater? It compares well with electricity and is less expensive than gas. It is however more economical in other ways like not consuming electricity.
