Smokeless and
clean cooking

Cooking on firewood or charcoal is one of the greatest threats to climate and health. No less than one third of our world’s population still cooks on an open fire.

We offer a smoke-free, healthy, and economically attractive alternative with highly efficient cookstoves, with biofuel made from agricultural residues and with local entrepreneurship.

Better climate, better life

The clean cooking ingredients

ignite.now cookstove
It starts with one of the most efficient, smokeless cookstoves in the world. Solid and safe, designed to last a lifetime. Suitable for several types of biofuels. Locally manufactured. Reducing more than 4 tons CO₂ each year.
biofuels
Zero waste, 100% value. Pellets made from several agricultural residues are preferred. Alternatively, crushed coconut and nut shells or materials like corn cobs work fine. Local availability and affordability are the requirements.
ecosystem
We make clean cooking as local as possible. Community driven, ensuring that clean cooking will be structurally integrated, becoming the new cooking standard. Primarily women from local communities are employed for production, distribution and service, making it a ‘by women, for women’ enterprise.
