Reusable Fire Starter/ Firelighter
The First of Its Kind — Introducing the revolutionary "Tanka" Reusable Firelighter, the first reusable firelighter on the market to feature a recycled tin fuel tank, the first designed to be stored completely dry, and the first firelighter to use wicking technology.
This is innovation that changes the game of fire-starting forever.
Economical & Affordable
The Tanka is also one of the cheapest reusable firelighters on the market, pays for itself quickly and saves you money with every fire:
- Just 30ml of fuel easily lights dry medium-hard wood — that's 40 fires from 1 litre of paraffin
- Equivalent to 10 packs of conventional firelighters (at a value of around R250-R450), but your used cooking oil is free and paraffin costs R31 per litre.
- Recycle your used cooking oil you'd otherwise throw away — turn waste into value
- Compatible with multiple affordable fuels: paraffin, used cooking oil, diesel, or blends of these fuels
- One-time purchase, lifetime use — no more buying disposable firelighters
Practical & Versatile
Designed for real-world use with smart, practical features:
- Dry storage — no soaking, no mess, safe to store anywhere
- Travel-friendly & airfreight-safe — contains no combustibles or accelerants when stored as it stored dry
- Perfect for braais, pizza ovens, fireplaces, camping, and overlanding
- Ignites charcoal/briquettes with ease
- Add as much or as little fuel as you need — you're in control
- Cool, wipe with the included pad, and store dry under your weber/ fireplace/ pizza oven/ braai or in the reusable bucket with lid
Eco-Conscious Innovation
The Tanka incorporates practical recycling and reduces toxic landfill from discarded firelighter packaging contaminated with paraffin, plastic, and other byproducts. The handmade fireproof wick is cast in reused atchar containers using rainwater, and the fuel tank is a recycled tin — sustainability meets performance.
