02 / About the Company
Waste to Reliable Energy
Founded in March 2025, Green Flame was established to address two compounding challenges facing Uganda: the progressive deforestation driven by traditional charcoal demand, and the growing energy access gap in urban and peri-urban communities.
Our manufacturing facility at Bweya Airfield Road operates a compression-and-drying process that converts locally sourced agricultural and sorted municipal organic waste — sawdust, biomass fibre, and carbonised organic matter — into high-density briquettes engineered for consistent calorific output.
Every kilogram of Green Flame briquettes represents waste biomass diverted from open burning, distributed to households, restaurants, bakeries, poultry farms, schools, and small industries in place of wood charcoal derived from deforested land.

04 / Manufacturing Process
From Waste to Fuel
01
Raw Material Collection
Agricultural residues — sawdust, biomass fibre, and carbonised organic matter — are sourced from local processing operations, diverting waste from open burning.
02
Processing & Binding
Raw biomass is prepared and blended with natural binders to achieve optimal cohesion and calorific density in the final product.
03
Compression & Extrusion
Prepared material is fed through a mechanical compression press that extrudes high-density sticks and discs under controlled pressure, forming the briquette profile.
04
Sun Drying
Freshly formed briquettes are laid on wooden mesh drying frames in open-sided sheltered facilities. Target moisture content: under 12% prior to dispatch.
05
Quality Testing
Batches are inspected for structural integrity, ignition profile, and burn consistency before being cleared for packaging.
06
Packaging & Distribution
Approved product is bagged and dispatched to clients across Kampala and greater Wakiso district on a scheduled delivery basis.
05 / Advantages & Industries Served

Questions & Inquiries
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Both Stick and Honey Comb briquettes are engineered for low-smoke, odor-neutral combustion. They are suitable for use in kitchens, semi-enclosed cooking areas, and outdoor catering environments.
Our minimum order quantity is 100 kg. Bulk orders exceeding 500 kg qualify for scheduled delivery and volume pricing. Please use the contact form to request a formal quotation.
Yes, we operate scheduled deliveries across Kampala and greater Wakiso district. Coverage to Entebbe, Mukono, and Mpigi corridors is available on request — contact us to confirm availability for your location.
At comparable weight, Green Flame briquettes deliver 10–20% more usable heat than equivalent-mass charcoal, meaning effective cost per cooking session is lower despite similar per-kilogram price points. Exact comparisons depend on stove type and cooking application.
Yes. Institutional clients — schools, hospitals, and community facilities — represent a core customer segment. We can accommodate regular delivery schedules and issue invoices for institutional procurement processes.
