How to use it at home
Light Hex together with a few handfuls of birch or oak lumpwood, in a chimney starter or straight in the grill with a wood wool firelighter. The lumpwood gets you cooking sooner and adds flavour; the Hex reaches full heat in 40–60 minutes and holds it for hours. Good for long kamado cooks and direct grilling over steady coals.
In restaurant service
Kitchens run briquettes as the powerbase: the long, stable heat at the foundation of the fire, with lumpwood lit together with it for extra heat and flavour. HazelHex is our first choice for that job; Hex does it at a lower price with a shorter single load. Read the operational case for hexagonal briquettes, work out weekly use with the charcoal per cover calculator, or see Hospitality for supply.

How hot does it get?
Up to 1000°C in a forced-draught setup.

40–60 minutes when lit together with charcoal in the grill. It is dense, so it comes up slower than lumpwood, then holds its heat.
Does it smoke?
Very low smoke and no chemical odour once fully lit.
What is it made from?
Recycled hardwood sawdust, a wood-processing by-product, pressed into Sumi Binchotan-style hollow hexagons with a natural starch binder.
How many steaks does a 10kg box cook?
Approximately 50 restaurant-size steaks.

Payment
Payment security is a critical aspect of running an online store, as it ensures that customers' sensitive information is protected during transactions. One widely recognized standard for payment security is the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS).
Globalticltd.co.uk, an online store, has implemented PCI DSS as a means of ensuring payment security. This means that the company has implemented a set of security requirements that apply to all merchants who accept credit card payments.
PCI DSS requirements include measures such as maintaining secure networks, encrypting data, and implementing access controls. For example, Globalticltd.co.uk would need to use strong encryption when transmitting sensitive data such as credit card numbers over the internet, and ensure that only authorized individuals have access to customer data.
By using PCI DSS, Globalticltd.co.uk is able to assure its customers that their payment information is being handled securely. Additionally, the company is able to protect itself from potential financial and reputational damage that could result from a data breach or other security incident.
Overall, payment security is crucial for any online store, and PCI DSS provides a standardized framework for ensuring that customers' sensitive information is protected. Globalticltd.co.uk's use of this standard is a strong indication of its commitment to ensuring a safe and secure shopping experience for its customers.
